We have some core values here at IMPACT. One of them is "live in the solution".What does that mean?It means not belaboring the negative points of a perceived problem (recreational complaining) and finding a way out of a mess, over an obstacle and through an issue.Are times tight?Yes.Is the word "recession" on the tips of wagging tongues everywhere?Yes.Can you get to the other side of that?Yes.And you can start by attending this...

Whether you are on a stage, in a boardroom or on Zoom with the teams you see every day… the way that you speak matters.

You don’t have to be an international keynote speaker (although we know a few) to desire to utilize world class speaking skills. You can hold an audience with rapt attention when you take a few simple steps to improve your delivery....
