Workshop Outline

Many of us lack confidence but feel unable to change that.  This may be linked with a low self-esteem and lack of assertive behaviour.  On this one-day workshop you will explore positive ways to improve confidence, become more self-aware and feel better about yourself.  You will choose one area of your life where you feel you would benefit from greater confidence and then using a confidence toolkit put together an action plan to address this area. 

Workshop Audience

Any woman feeling the need to increase her confidence or self esteem in a work or home setting and willing to start to work towards clear positive goals.
