Research conducted with 4,000 participants revealed that confidence is the key criteria clients look for in a trusted advisor. This session examines the key components of confidence – authority, presence and impact – and offers practical advice on how to build and project it when working with clients, peers and team members. 

This workshop is designed for all levels of managers and leaders in corporate, financial or professional services companies. The session is meant to be interactive and will include a presentation, polls and breakout sessions. At the end of the session, participants will be able to:

• develop a new way to think about confidence using the API framework
• identify your API strengths and development areas
• acquire tools, techniques and tactics that will enable you to build your own levels of API and build API, in yourself and others
• share experiences and knowledge of internal and external API markers

This workshop will take place on Zoom and delegates will receive a diary invite after registration.
