Eight “Must-Do” Etiquette Skills for Women to Succeed in Business, With Syndi Seid, founder, Advanced Etiquette. Diana McLellan of The Washingtonian said, “Manners are the new status accessory. Pricier than a Rolex and shinier than handmade shoes; polished social graces can get you where you’re going faster than a speeding BMW.”

Do you consider yourself a business professional? Class, how to get it and how to use it are hot topics in corporate boardrooms and small business community meetings alike. It’s all about becoming world-class and out-classing the competition!

Your brand is a clear expression in words and stories about the value you uniquely bring in knowledge, experience and character traits. It keeps you from wandering off when discussing your background. A personal brand gives you a framework to answer the question, “Why should we hire you?” It provides a consistent thread to use for all the times you will need to talk or write about yourself in a resume, cover letter, performance review, interview or professional networking site profile.

In this program, Career Coach K.C. Anderson will share her expertise to help you structure a lucid, resonating personal brand tailored from your best personal traits. The effort you invest in identifying this unique value proposition will be well rewarded, as a well crafted brand will help you be remembered
long after that interview or networking meeting.

- Transform your inner mean girl into your inner superheroine - stop negative thinking from running you
- Meet your new best friend, intuition - tap into an underutilized power source at your fingertips
- Stop chasing balance and start feeling balanced - reconnect with what really makes you happy
