Image Insight®

Image Insight® workshops go a step beyond conventional programs: they not only teach the “how” of image development but the “why” as well.  Image development is an essential business skill that can improve an individual’s effectiveness, productivity and satisfaction, as well as the company’s bottom line.  Professionalism, social graces, and effective communication skills can be taught and they, in turn, set the climate for success.  When each element of image has been analyzed and developed, confidence is the result.

Workshops are modular and customized to your particular company and industry.  Depending on your needs and schedule, workshops can last from one-half day to several days and include group activities and exercises, as well as visuals and customized workbooks. 

Topics include First Impressions, Wardrobe Strategies, Grooming, Business Etiquette, Social Etiquette, and Verbal and Nonverbal Communication Skills.

Jill did a fantastic job of customizing training for new entry-level hires making the transition from college to the corporate world.

“Jill did an Image Workshop for our employees and it was a roaring success!  Many of the staff came up to me after the workshop and thanked me for inviting Jill in because they felt they got so much out of the time she spent with us.  Jill’s workshop was worth every penny spent, both for the information imparted and the change of attitude and awareness it created for our staff.”
