With Ulster University Business School alumnus Jason Cooper
The Development and Alumni Relations Office, in partnership with Ulster University Business School, are delighted to invite you to this virtual event.
Everything in life comes from practice; listening to and understanding people is a must. Whether it’s in our professional lives or personal lives, good communication is fundamental to developing and maintaining long term relationships.
2020 has radically altered how we interact and communicate with each other, elevating the importance of empathetic and compassionate communication.
Being able to demonstrate these skills and attributes effectively in an offline and online environment will set you up for success in 2021 and beyond.
Join us for a live webinar to hear inspiration and fresh perspectives from Ulster University Business School graduate and Business Sales Consultant, Jason Cooper.
This talk will focus on leadership, emotional intelligence and the essence of essential soft skills for business, illustrating how we should use them more effectively to build trust and maintain relationships in the digital era.
Jason will share practical tips from his knowledge and experience of consulting within several start-ups and as an international trainer coach and mentor in sales and business skills that are proven to work.

Five years ago, I hit ‘record’ for the very first time on The Global Sales Leader Podcast. I didn’t have a perfectly soundproof studio, a production team, or even a long-term plan—just a fire in my belly and a deep desire to have conversations that mattered. Now, entering the fifth year of hosting conversations with extraordinary business leaders, I’ve become even more selective—every episode must echo my core belief: dialogue, when done right, is a catalyst for change. Today, it’s a great honour and a pleasure to share that The Global Sales Leader Podcast has been listed in the Top 100 Best Business Leadership Podcasts on MillionPodcasts.com. That recognition isn’t just about me—it’s about the power of purposeful conversations, the loyal listeners who lean in, and the incredible guests who share not just knowledge, but wisdom. THREE KEY INSIGHTS People Buy Energy, Not Just Expertise In every conversation, I’ve learned that what resonates most isn’t jargon or perfectly structured advice—it’s human energy. That passion, vulnerability, and truth that comes through when a guest shares their “why” is what sticks. People buy people. Not titles. Relationship Capital is the New ROI From Philip Squire to Tom Ziglar, my guests often echo this: long-term trust outperforms short-term gains. Whether you're selling software or pitching a keynote, it's your ability to build relational equity—emotionally and intellectually—that defines your success trajectory. Podcasting Isn’t a Side Hustle—It’s a Relationship Accelerator Your voice in someone’s ears is intimacy at scale. Being part of someone’s commute, workout, or late-night work sprint is a privilege—and a responsibility. It’s how we build brand trust in a noisy world.

We talk about the use of humor to humanize the whole selling process. We talk about building trust and resilience. We talk about a little bit of neuroscience as it pertains to buyers and sellers. Jason does a little bit of research and work in that category. Those following us closely know I guested on Jason's podcast, The Global Sales Leader Podcast, which was super fun. We’re looking forward to continuing the conversation on the show.
