| The
old cliché ‘first impressions count'is a maxim
that
is undeniably accurate. Glossy power point CV's and a string of
qualifications may get you an interview, but it is the impression
you make on walking in the door that is the hallmark to success.
It is a well established fact that only 7% of the impact a person
makes is in what he says, while 38% is in the quality of voice,
accent, grammar and confidence. Visual impact has by far the most
striking effect accounting for 55%. So the message is clear a well-groomed
person, who speaks confidently is more likely to succeed more easily
in a chosen career than a badly dressed rival with better qualifications.
The various modules offered are designed to transform

one basis or to a group your interpersonal communication will
