Judi James

Corporate Body Language Sessions

This new and innovative body language package is perfect for awaydays, all-staff sessios, conferences and corporate dinners or entertainment. A small space will be set up with lights and possibly props (to be arrange with client approval) for each delegate to be photographed by a professional photographer, either on arrival or during a break. These shots will then be downloaded onto a laptop and the best ones picked for analysis.

Judi will present her body language talk, giving valuable and informative advice on the skills of self-marketing and analysing others in business. She will use slides of models and celebrities to analyse her points but will then produce the photographs (on lightpro slides) of the delegates (singles, pairs and groups) and using the amusing and observational style from her Big Brother slots and You Magazine columns, give celebrity-style analysis of the poses people have struck. Delegates can be given the opportunity to order prints from the photo session, or these could be presented via the company after the event.

The training is tailored so is suitable for both experienced speakers and beginners.

The areas covered are:

Confidence - including breathing exercises, positive affirmations and body posture

Structuring - planning the talk for maximum impact

Voice Control - projection, pitch and tone

Body Language - how to create congruence with coaching on body posture, facial expressions, eye contact, hand gestures and movements

Psychological ‘Pitching’ Techniques - looking at the listening and behaviour styles of a varied audience and using techniques to ensure the talk works for all of them
