In a distracted world driven by time pressure, numbers and technology, getting attention is only the start; you also have to hold it. This 60-minute webinar on captivating an audience is for anyone who wants to become a more compelling, connecting leader and communicator.

Using a mix of humor, ideas and small and large group exercises, the presenter shares tools such as the "New KISS" (keep it short and smart) and "Memorable MISS" (sassy and surprising), the five A's of ACE communication, and the five-P passion power model.

Three questions guide the session: are you bringing your best energy, experience and expertise; are you being heard or just making noise; and are you building collaborative relationships that make the most of diversity, productivity and creativity?
