WHY I LOVE MY JOB
My professional journey as an international television anchor, keynote speaker and workshop presenter, has given me unlimited opportunities to educate and connect with people.

Lighting the F.I.R.E for Successful Communication
F- Feeling good about yourself
Honore De Balzac said: “There is no greater impediment to getting on well with other people, than being ill at ease with yourself.” We live in a world of enormous stress and challenge and all too often, we forget the power of exuding positive energy as a way of attracting business.

The 2 Elements to Effective Communication

- We all know the power of showing interest in others. Dale Carnegie put it so well when he said “you can make more friends in two weeks being interested in other people than in two years trying to get them interested in you” Yet so often we retain these well known philosophies for business purposes only.
Casual Networking and the Slim Laptop
In my book and seminars there is a section entitled “Casual, Incidental, By Chance Networking.”
It talks about those chance encounters that can lead to business, friendship or romance. I had the pleasure of meeting a recent client in exactly this way. I was on a business trip, one of 52 I have taken this year, when I started a conversation with an elegant gentleman sitting on my left.
