Join me and my special guest Kay White for “How To Toot Your Own Horn Without Blowing Your Own Trumpet

Recognizing how many people struggle being visible, being noticed and being heard in the workplace – there are distinct and easy ways to start to be noticed (and credited) for the value, input and potential you have without being labelled “a show off”.  Kay will be sharing just a few of the many tools and tips she herself has learned throughout her own career and she now teaches her clients (who are mainly senior corporate executives) who want to raise their own game in the workplace and for example:

• How to engage people in fruitful, comfortable conversation at networking / corporate events
• Key language to use to “own” things and be seen to be involved without being “a show off”
• A couple of small words that make a BIG difference in how people remember you.

Having recently carried out a survey across various clients and website groups entitled “What drives you nuts about people who communicate with you in the office?” Kay has some great insights into the “dos and don’ts” to share with you.

ABOUT KAY

Kay White discovered her talents as an effective and influential communicator whilst working both in Paris and in the City of London for more than 20 years.

Working to Director level as part of a successful, mainly male, fast-paced team of global insurance brokers Kay learned (often by her own mistakes along the way) how to – and crucially how not to – be noticed and recognised for achievements and abilities and still work comfortably with and alongside people.

In just 5 years, Kay has developed Way Forward Solutions Ltd (www.wayforwardsolutions.com) into a global mentoring and training company showing professionals around the world how to be better understood and be recognised and rewarded for the value they add, as well as the potential they have.

As well as working one-to-one with her VIP clients, Kay also offers live and virtual group trainings and mentorships.

By being understood and getting their messages across with more impact and influence, Kay’s clients become noticed and remembered for “the right” reasons and their relationships, careers and incomes grow as they do.
