Leap 1 - Perception (Pilot )

This workshop emphasizes the importance of perception in the work place and social environments, how it can work for you or against you and what you can do to make sure you are giving the perception you want. It will cover:   

o Professional and personal image development in multiple aspects of your career 

o Professional resume and cover letter overview review 

o Soft skills for business/ interviewing

o Perception and reality 

o What to expect in business lunches, dinners, meetings, parties, general rules of engagement 

o How to maintain a good attitude
