  • Body Language in the Office

    More than half of our communication is through our body language. From our facial expressions, to the way we position our arms, to the direction we position our torsos. In an office environment, it’s incredibly valuable to understand some key body language signs when dealing with managers, subordinates, peers, colleagues or external clients. After this session you will be able to position people around a room in a way that makes the shy more comfortable and the confident a little quieter. You will notice the signs of people who are bored or who just really want to leave the room, and be able to direct the meeting accordingly.

  • Sandy Chander - PA to Ricky Martin (BBC Apprentice winner)
    Yvette Pearson’s talk at the Cobis PAConference, in Luxembourg was really interesting and engaging. She spoke passionately about the topic, which was thought-provoking and fascinating. She held the audience’s attention extremely well and provided many opportunities for interaction. The advice and tips were invaluable and will certainly provide an opportunity for personal reflection too. I  cannot recommend her enough.

    I had the pleasure of connecting and spending time with Yvette Pearson at the COBIS PA Conference in Luxembourg – 7-8th March 2019. From the onset, I was impressed with Yvette’s passion, professionalism and enthusiasm.

    Yvette delivered an inspiring keynote speech on – The art of understanding Body Language. She made this thought-provoking topic very easy to understand and interpret. Yvette has a very cool and calm manner and shares her message in a professional and light hearted way.

    At the end of the event I had the privilege of being part of a panel with Yvette. It is clear she has great confidence and flare to public speaking.
