EDUCATION SESSION #751
100 Women in Improv: The Secret Language of Power
|
|
|
It's never too early or too late to learn about your professional power.
Are you seeking greater executive presence when meeting with senior partners, prospects and clients? Do you find it challenging to express your authority while still being approachable?
Power is the secret language we speak all the time. Tap into your strengths. Join us for an active evening to take you beyond your usual boundaries in personal interactions. Learn techniques to focus not only on what you say, but also on how you say it, so your message is heard. Gain new skills for interacting more effectively with peers, partners and clients. Come practice new techniques and build your fluency in the language of power and presence.
Come early to tour Tania Bruguera: Talking to Power/Hablandole al Poder, the newest exhibition at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts and part of an ongoing series, Changing the Ratio, that presents work by some of the most important female artists of our time. Tours will be given at 3:30 and 4:00.
Bring your daughters, college students or mentees to join in the exercises.
