There’s nowt as queer as folk….or the range of people they have to mix with.Once it was enough to hone our technical skills.Now we have to develop ourselves interpersonally to the same level if we are to succeed with a range of bosses, donors, partners and colleagues.

This is a light hearted and highly practical talk aimed at helping you make the right impact when selling your cause, expertise and ideas.The session will enable you to better understand yourself and other people so you can improve working relationships and ultimately, get more of what you want.
