ACTING WITH POWER

Expanding your authentic delivery range can change how we are perceived.

Objectives for the workshop may include:

  • Obtain deeper understandings of power, status and authority
  • Learn to observe and understand the behaviors that underlie power and
  • status dynamics
  • Learn how to use power constructively
  • Learn to use your voice and body most effectively
