Trainings and workshops are occasions for people to meet and learn together in motivating ways. We live in information-rich times and it isn’t enough to deliver more information without engaging the whole person. When people get busy in groups more aspects of themselves can blossom. Inspiration, confidence, creativity and motivation flourish. They learn more quickly and easily.

Judy will be sharing her icebreakers and learning activities, and encouraging you to create your own eclectic mixes of activities appropriate for your trainings and workshops. That’s whole person learning, good communication, inspiration, and motivation – whatever your subject! www.JudyBarber.net

Julie French and Tony Burgess will be sharing their expertise in NLP to help you to use language at its most effective to ensure that you are getting your message across in powerful and consistent ways. Simple hypnotic language patterns, weaving into your presentations will shape people's attention, expectations, and states and move them most effectively to taking positive action.

So many speakers and trainers sabotage their presentations through clumsy use of language that inadvertently sends conflicting messages to the audience's conscious and unconscious minds. When the subtleties of language are used elegantly and with clear intention and understanding, it puts the presenter a cut above the majority of presenters and of course enhances the results they achieve.

Julie and Tony will also offer you ways to enhance your presentations by using 'stage anchoring' to seamlessly lead your audience from one section of delivery to another, triggering states of anticipation and readiness in participants for whatever is coming next. This is simple yet so powerful and so rarely used so again will put your streets ahead of most presenters out there!
