Scott Schmidt at the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association Annual Convention

    Scott Schmidt started Schmidt Strategic Services with the goal of applying his knowledge of communication tactics to real-life situations in order to impact change.

    Scott notes: "Many people, organizations, and campaigns with good intentions often fail to achieve their goals, not because they aren't qualified or honorable, but because they are not aware of the strategies and tactics of persuasion."

    Being passionate or right is not enough.  Without good rhetoric, you will not win the election, get the job, or sell your product.
