Confidence

Confidence is Currency
Friday 8 October 2010 | 9am - 1pm | Foxhills country club and spa, Chertsey | £60pp

Does your lack of confidence get in the way of winning you more business? Do your presentations, pitches and talks lack charisma and impact? Does the prospect of standing up in front of a group of people make you go wobbly at the knees, or leave you tongue tied with your knickers in a twist?

In business, we all know the importance of making a positive first impression and without the right balance of confidence and rapport we are running the risk of not being taken seriously by our clients and worse still actually putting them off.

Confidence is currency in your business. Confidence is powerful. Wherever you go, where-ever you speak; meetings; networking events; conferences; everyday phone calls or chance meetings the all important deal clinching scenario, the level of confidence you portray has vital impact.

3 reasons why confidence matters:

  • Confidence can make our message more meaningful, powerful and memorable
  • It is the ingredient that can transform even the driest material into something worth sitting up and listening to
  • Confidence is attractive and helps you stand out from the sea of your competitors

If you lack confidence everyday meetings phone calls and networking can leave you feeling anxious and downhearted and prevent you from truly making the impact essential for business success.

Even if your product or service is of great value, you need to be able to communicate that value to your clients and potential clients with gravitas that inspires trust and confidence in what you do.

Confidence is not just for the chosen few! Which is great news for you if it is something you sometimes struggle with in your business. With a little preparation and the know-how the behaviour of confidence is accessible to anyone in any situation.

This is a dynamic and intensive half day workshop that will teach you the skills, mindset, language and behaviour of confidence and a lot more besides…

What you will learn:

  • The levels of confidence and why they are important for you
  • The hall markers of confident people
  • How to get your body to work for you and ooze a confident presence
  • How to prepare yourself physically and mentally for effective public speaking
  • How to create that all important stage presence and charisma
  • The keys to assertive communication
  • Rapport what it is why it is important and how to build more of it

More confidence opens doors for you. By applying what you learn networking nerves can be a thing of the past. Increased confidence makes everyday interactions more enjoyable for you and your clients and much more effective for business.

Public speaking can be a great way to showcase your expertise and your brand, by arming yourself with some really useful tools and techniques it opens up the possibility for you to get the word out there in a way that befits the quality of your product or service. We are communicating all of the time whether we like it or not, with more confidence you can make the first impression that you want to make and build relationships with ease.

How we will work:
