As they say, you only get one chance to make a first impression, so learn how to make the most of it through this three-part workshop. You will learn how to identify your unique value and skills, understand how they differentiate you from others who have similar roles and, most importantly, learn how to distinguish yourself in one or two sentences to ensure that your introduction is memorable and more importantly, generates interest and conversation with your clients, colleagues and bosses.
