Motivational sales book is still selling and relevant

Danville, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/14/2013 -- The Vengel Consulting Group would like to congratulate their founder Allan Vengel and co-writer Greg Wright on the 10-year anniversary of the publication of their book Sprout!: Everything I Need to Know About Sales I Learned From My Garden.

In 2003 Vengel and Wright were two salesmen with successful careers who decided to pool their experience and wisdom in the field into a book that would be both practical and enjoyable to read. Sprout! uses the metaphor of gardening to help make complex ideas about salesmanship, business, and philosophy both engaging and easily understood. The book has gone on to sell thousands of copies and continues to be used as a teaching tool by The Vengel Consulting Group in their management training seminars, as its lessons still retain their relevance a decade later.

Allan Vengel has also written two other books, 20 Minutes to a Top Performer and The Influence Edge, and his consulting company The Vengel Group has become an international negotiation training and leadership development program. Vengel and his expert associates provide seminars, webinars, and private consultations on line, on site, and in-house, and they tailor all lessons to each individual client's unique needs.

Leadership development program company announces much anticipated product

Danville, CA -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/07/2013 -- Vengel Consulting, a giant in executive leadership training, is excited to announce its latest product for those interested in becoming an effective leader. The product, known as the Motivation and Engagement Package for Managers, is focused on persuading employees to work harder through communication styles rather than the costly, and often ineffective, approach of salary raises.

It is true that people will do an awful lot for money, but once the initial satisfaction of a raise or promotion is over, many workers will drop back down into autopilot mode. To truly be an effective leader, one needs influencing skills so that employees will listen and want to do the work assigned. It happens all too often that somewhat shabby work is turned into the manager, and the difference between perfection and subpar work is simply that a worker just didn't feel like it that day. How can the worker be convinced to do consistent, high quality work? That's what the Motivation and Engagement Package for Managers is designed to teach.

According to a spokesperson for Vengel Consulting, "Our leadership development program is expertly designed from the ground up to teach those in leadership positions how best to influence those below them. The effective leader leads to an effective group, and an effective group leads to a successful business." Whenever the most successful companies look for executive leadership training, they turn to Vengel Consulting for the best managerial programs in the country.

About Vengel Consulting
For a number of years, Vengel Consulting, the management training program company inspired by the teachings of Alan Vengel, has been a leader in teaching and communicating influencing skills. Alan Vengel is a strong believer that leadership influence is the most powerful kind of influence in any venture, and he strives to teach businesses more effective methods of motivating their employees. With Vengel Consulting, managers and executives will learn how to motivate a group to be more efficient through effective communication instead of costly incentives.
