According to a UCLA study, 93% of a communicator’s effectiveness is based on non-verbal cues. This coaching program includes a focus on the verbal, vocal and visual delivery techniques appropriate for the business environment, which can improve a speaker’s credibility, influence and impact.

Developing these skills can enhance your professional success and help you communicate your ideas and influence your audience to act.
