Who is it for?

This course is designed for professionals who need to influence others - be they clients, colleagues or stakeholders. You could be a new manager looking for some help with your team or else want to ensure you're as influential when dealing with clients - both face to face and on the phone.

What is it?

Starting generally on how 'making an impact' works, you will then take a detailed look at how you can improve your ability to work with and influence others. The emphasis is on creating insight, increasing confidence and raising self-esteem.
