ART of COACHING

Presenter: Sari de la Motte

Topic:  The Permission Principle

Description:  How aware are you of the Permission Principle? Do you sabotage your own efforts by violating unspoken boundaries? If we don’t know what nonverbal cues to look for, we inadvertently cross the invisible line of permission. This costs us credibility, effectiveness, and eventually long-term success. Get ready to view effective communication in a whole new light. The Permission Principle applies to presentation skills, business and personal relationships, negotiations and more. Understanding nonverbal communication and how it helps navigate the area of permission is the key to increased influence in the educational, corporate, and personal realm.

Bio:  Sari de la Motte, CEO and founder of Nonverbal Solutions, engages her audience by sharing the power of nonverbal communication with relevant examples, practical applications and humor. She has trained extensively with an internationally recognized authority in nonverbal communication and leads workshops based in nonverbal communication strategies throughout the United States.
