Effective Body Language for Business

Who is it for? This one day workshop is designed to help you increase your personal impact by improving your awareness and utilisation of successful body language techniques. What is the course about? Whether you are leading a meeting, delivering a proposal or trying to convince people that what you are saying is a good idea, your body language is also "communicating" as you speak. If your body language is in sync with your message then you stand a far greater chance of success.
