and celebrate completion of their programme. 27 people attended. Participants were welcomed to the

Maximising your impact as leaders (Facilitated by Kate Atkins)
We believe that everyone communicates brilliantly in some area of their life. However, in a work context as leaders, when we have to communicate often difficult messages to a diverse range of people, our natural skills can desert us and we may not look or sound as convincing as we would like to.
Workshop 1 led by Kate Atkin: Confidence Matters
This master class explores the factors that make somebody feel confident. It is founded on the premise that confidence isn’t about arrogance. You will be taught tips, tools and techniques that have been shown to be effective in helping people access confidence when you most need to. We will explore the, often unsuspected, links between our beliefs and behaviours and encourage you to achieve your goals by building the confidence to take the steps you really want.
Workshop 2 led by Kate Atkin: Image, Impact and Influence
This master class explores how important image really is and where it comes from, particularly focussing on non-verbal cues. Here you will discover the impact you are making and learn how to tweak your behaviour to ensure you make the impact you want to. You will be shown three key steps that will help you improve your influence.
