Final Friday Forum - February 29th

Monthly Networking Event

Dancing Elephants Achievement Group welcomes

Professional speaker, educator, author, business coach, entrepreneur and founder of five successful business, Gary Tomlinson is well versed in the areas of entrepreneurship, leadership, corporate culture and effective communication skills.

This month’s topic:

Effective communication is the key to success. The better prepared you are, the better you use your tools, the more effective you’ll be in communicating effectively with others. The business person today who can communicate clearly with others, whether one-on-one, one-on-five, or one-on-five hundred, has enormous power.

Business people who want to be heard, who want to get to the top of their professions and stay there, must learn to hone their “art of telling” skills. The realities are we all have to work to polish these skills. Most of us will not pay the price. For those who do, the reward is enormous!

What Attendees Will Learn:

• The three satisfactions that all presenters want from their listeners
• The three satisfactions that all listeners want from their presenters
• Traits of effective speakers
• Traits of ineffective speakers
• What defines your image

• The importance of “self-talk”

  
  The purpose of Final Friday Forum is three-fold:

  First, it’s a great opportunity to network

  Third, we will share some information and educate.
