We all know people who are charismatic and we can envy them at times too. They seem ultra cool and collected. They exude an aura of benevolence and calmness. But what is it, and can you learn to have more Charisma?
Charisma is not something bestowed upon the fortunate few - it's a set of behaviours. And since we can all change our behaviours, it's not a big step to become more charismatic. The likes of politicians such as Barack Obama, Bill Clinton and David Cameron or movie stars such as George Clooney, Joanna Lumley, Dame Helen Mirren, Oprah Winfrey and many others use these skills on a daily basis. They've learned them so well that it has become part of their daily behaviour - and you can learn them too.
Whether at work, dealing with new clients - persuading people to buy your services or products, or in your personal life, out on a date, meeting new friends or relatives for the first time, this workshop unveils the secrets that movers and shakers use every day.
Jon has interviewed many of the people who use these techniques and in conjunction with the Spontaneity Shop can now teach you how to adapt your behaviour and understand the processes that go on within these personal interactions.
The workshop lasts around 3 and a half hours followed by the chance to sit with others on the course and discuss what you've learned.
“Thank you so much for leading us in a thoroughly enjoyable and thought provoking session. The feedback on the day was extremely positive and the energy in the room was the best I’ve seen it. ” — James Jones - D Group
