How to Be Cool, Calm and Collected on Camera and on stage™

 

In preparation for my interview with Barbara Walters on ABC’s The View, Ellen, your expertise, both on and off the set, was a lifesaver. Your coaching helped prepare me for the fast-paced, live TV interview format.

I was especially impressed with your attention to detail.

 

You made a wonderful difference by allowing me to concentrate more fully on my interview with Ms. Walters. Thanks for being there for me. Words cannot express how much I appreciate you. I highly recommend you and your work.”

Larry James, Author of Love Notes for

(C)Are you Brilliant But

lack Cultural Education and Exposure?

                                                                         

Do you feel like you never have anything to contribute to a conversation?

Have you ever been to a symphony and clapped at the wrong time?

Have you ever felt overwhelmed at a museum?

Embarrassing, isn’t it?

The Problems and The Challenges

 

Don't risk embarrassing yourself, your company and your clients because you don't understand the finer things in life. Cultural Exposure and Education provides an important common denominator for business relationships and deepens one’s soul. While you may be extremely well versed in your field, it is important you have at least a minimum exposure to and understanding of art, music, literature and culture.

Your Return on Investment

 

You develop a foundation for rapport with clients and, more importantly, become a richer, deeper human being who actively gives back to humankind.

 

Who Should Attend

 

®      Everyone who has not had the benefit of cultural exposure and education.

®      Anyone who wants to enhance their understanding and ability to discuss the arts and impress.

 

You Will Learn to:

 

ü        discuss these events impressively.

ü        behave at cultural venues and events.

ü        enjoy and enrich your soul.

ü        dress and behave at a formal affair.

ü        develop confidence about your artistic choices.
