Talks and Presentations
House of Colour provides the most comprehensive training program available in the field of Image Consultancy. All our Image Consultants complete this training to become experts who regularly deliver informative, entertaining and valuable, talks, presentations and seminars tailored to your individual requirements.
You may be in business, education, charity, be a member of a social club or looking for a guest speaker for your networking or fundraising event; all these are possible and have been delivered in a wide variety of venues!
For Business
What you wear and how you wear it conveys a wide variety of social messages. It may be a well-worn cliché that you only get one chance to make a first impression but making and sustaining a positive impression is critical to your success in all business contexts. Human nature constantly appraises and evaluates the visual messages you give and receive and once your first impression (either by you or of you) is created, it is almost impossible to reverse it; the credibility of you as an individual and your company depends upon an accurate first impression.
Whether you are a sole trader, partnership, SME through to a blue chip corporate, your staff are the living representation of your brand and business. With seminars tailor made to suit your company's needs, everyone learns the freedom of choosing how to dress individually while making sure the messages complement, support and accurately represent your company; image, product and services.
Understanding the impact your appearance has on others perceptions of you is one of the best investments you can make for:
- Your staff (as part of their continuing professional development or a reward scheme)
- Your company – consider the perception of your brand and how that is (or is not) portrayed by your staff. Are you managing your reputation effectively?
Contact your nearest consultant to discuss what is available for your business.
- Image and perception – what is it and why does it matter?
- First impressions – including appearance, body language
- Meeting, greeting, hand-shaking
- Carrying authority and credibility
- Grooming & accessorising
- Interpretation of dress codes – including formal and smart casual
For Education
Many House of Colour consultants have chosen to continue their training to further equip them to contribute to the interesting and wonderful world of Education. The messages your appearance gives out are often particularly complex since there is a pastoral, educational and authoritative role to play. Your education twilight or full day workshops offer your delegates the opportunity to share a learning experience which:
- encourages communication and is fun.
- creates awareness, so you all understand the importance of the image of yourself and how you appear to others
- builds confidence & self esteem to start connecting with your potential.
Subjects can include:
- What's in communication
- Judging a book by its cover
- First Impressions
- Messages – sent and received
- Behaviours, attitudes and body language
- Models for good communication
- The language of clothes
- Carrying authority while staying approachable and friendly
- The importance of individuality
