SAY IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME

The DETAILS


How often do you fall short when trying to clearly, convincingly, and confidently get your message across “in the moment” — such as when someone asks you a question in a meeting, during a chance encounter, or in any other situation where you want and need to be your most articulate? 

This session will teach you a set of little known — but profoundly effective — tools and tips to ensure that you always express yourself with clarity and composure; even when the last thing you were expecting was to be under the spotlight. Get ready to go from flat-footed to polished, poised, and pointed — the first time, and every time!
