Three sessions in, you're probably getting to know a few people. But do you still dread showing up to a session a little too early and having to 'make conversation' with someone? This session will help to put that fear at ease. An important part of your increasing your perception as an influencer is ensuring that the image you are projecting is one of confidence, professionalism and calmness.
- This session will put all your fears to rest.
- The proper handshake. Shaken.
- The introduction. Introduced!
- Professional body language. Worked out.
- The awkward small talk. No longer awkward.
This session will reflect back to you your strengths as a communicator and help out with some areas where you can build more confidence.
Preparation:
Get yourself ready for the trade show, conference or next company party. Think about who you have to introduce, the impression you want to make and what topics you want to bring up. Our participants will help rate you on your intro and introduce you to some new techniques.
