| Power Presentation Skills Workshop By Kay Wong |
|
When you have learned the art of Presentation Skills, you hold one of the major keys to advancement in the business world.
Effective presentations lubricates a smooth flow of communication, internally and externally. Sharing your message with others in a way that is clearly understood will pave the way for you to achieve your goals.
Having technical knowledge, experience and organisational ability are all very important in fast-tracking your career development. But communication is even more critical.
Many executives – when called upon to present an idea, a product, a recommendation, a sales proposal, a report, or just to stand up and communicate – FAIL to do justice to the substance they have.
Learning powerful tools in Presentation Skills will help company managers and executives to deliver a more power-packed performance for the company. |

If you’ve asked several people what NLP is, you probably received different answers from each one. That’s why we want to simplify this complicated art, and get you information you can instantly use.
To a certain extent, NLP is a therapeutic mind tool - it has been know to be excellent in the art and science of systematic human performance transformation; it works on basic thought processes going back to perceptions, perspectives and then beliefs and values of the person. So that the person's mental states/emotional states could be changed to positive/empowering states very quickly through these thought processes.
And since the change is internal in nature, the changes can be permanent because, the mind programmes are changed; much like changing habits. Therefore, when you apply the mind tools which you will be taught, you will experience a holistic transformation of your thinking, thought processes and mental states which will help you greatly to improve not only at work but also in your basic daily living skills. |

| Mentoring, Coaching And Counseling Skills At Work By Raja Abdul Halim Raja Shah Kobat |
|
Mentoring is a process in which a more skilled or more experienced person, serving as a role model, teaches, sponsors, encourages, counsels and befriends a less skilled or less experienced person for the purpose of promoting the latter’s professional and/or personal development. Mentoring functions are carried out within the context of an ongoing, supportive relationship between the mentor and mentee.
Counseling and coaching are skills that can be learned through persistence and patience. If you have a sincere desire to develop and support others and the self-discipline to practice the specific strategies, you can become proficient in these areas.
The rewards from improving your counseling and coaching skills are many. In our professional life, we can use these skills to create optimal working conditions which include: proper orientation and training for employees, establishing clear responsibilities and standards, providing appropriate guidance and support during times of transition and insuring increased motivation and productivity through effective feedback. |

| Manage Your Time & Task Effectively Workshop By Aaron Lee |
|
Personal time management skills are essential skills for effective people. People who use these techniques routinely are the highest achievers in all walks of life, from business to sport to public service. If you use these skills well, then you will be able to function exceptionally well, even under intense pressure.
What's more, as you master these skills, you'll find that you take control of your workload, and say goodbye to the often intense stress of work overload.
At the heart of time and task management is an important shift in focus: Concentrate on results (the outcomes), not on being busy (the process)
Many people spend their days in a frenzy of activity, but achieve very little because they're not concentrating their effort on the things that matter the most.

| 36 Strategies of the Highly Successful Executives Workshop By Casey Tee |
|
The Thirty-Six Strategies is a unique collection of ancient Chinese proverbs that describe some of the most effective and subtle strategies ever devised. The Thirty-Six Strategies are more suitably applied in the fields of management, leadership, marketing and public relation. These proverbs describe not only battlefield strategies, but tactics used in psychological warfare to undermine both the enemy's will to fight - and his sanity. Tactics such as the 'double cross', the 'frame job', and the 'bait and switch', can be traced back through thousands of years of Chinese history to such proverbs as 'Hide the Dagger Behind a Smile', and 'Toss out a Brick to Attract Jade' respectively.
For the western reader the Thirty-Six Strategies offers timeless insights into the workings of human nature under conditions of extreme stress. Many of the proverbs are based on events that occurred during China's Warring States Era (403-221 BC). Many of those accounts are presented here along with the exploits of some of the orient's greatest generals, kings, emperors, and shoguns. Over 118 anecdotes are included to both explain and offer examples of each strategy's application. By learning from the old masters of the art of deception, one is better able to spot the modern pretenders, for, though the players come and go, the game remains the same. |

| Utilizing Emotional Intelligence (EQ) To Achieve Higher Productivity By Aaron Lee |
|
Daniel Goleman, a pioneer of the concept of emotional intelligence (EI or sometimes known as EQ), defines EI as "the capacity for recognising our own feelings and those of others, for motivating ourselves, and for managing emotions well, in ourselves and in our relationships."
This is a critical skill in selling and achieving higher productivity, along with the particular competences of optimism and recovering from setback. For instance, the salesperson who knows the product inside out will not succeed without the additional ability to forge strong relationships, win trust, assess how the client is feeling, and cope with their own feelings, including disappointment.
The same will apply to any employees who also need to build strong relationships, win trust, assess how the co-worker/boss/staff is feeling, and cope with theirs as well. |

| The Power Of Branding Workshop By Kay Wong |
|
In today’s modern market economy there is an explosion of choices – what product to buy, which service to choose, which company to work with, and who to buy from.
Modern society is also information-rich but time-poor. The value of a powerful brand grows directly in relation to how fast and easily consumers choose your brand.
Smart companies know that brands are a company’s most valuable asset. Therefore capitalizing on their brands is important for growth and profitability.
Smarter companies know that branding goes beyond products and services, their features and benefits. Consumers choose products and services because of what the brand represents. If not for the branding of Sony, Toyota, Samsung and LG, Asian brands would not be what they are today.
Branding is about who it is and what it does for your corporate performance.
This workshop in branding gives you the know-how of strategically managing your brand, giving you the foundation to start developing a more power-packed plan for the image of your brand. |

| Negotiation Skills: Psychology of Influencing & Negotiation Using NLP By Daniel Wong |
|
Individuals often fail in negotiations because they have had no foundation in negotiation skills.
We are negotiating almost all the time. Whether with business partners, clients, suppliers, colleagues or even family members, the success of our outcomes depends entirely on our understanding of the negotiation and communication process. When engaged in negotiations where your skill as a negotiator may prevent losses, increase gains or enhance circumstances for you or your organisation, it is imperative that you invest in your capability to:
- Prepare effectively - Understand the needs & interests of all parties involved - Conclude better agreements through creativity - Identify potential barriers or hindrances to the engagement - Adopt a collaborative approach to ensuring trust, rapport and long term gains
There is also a growing awareness that conflict at all levels in society is not always best resolved through force and coercion. What is needed is an increased ability on the part of leaders to develop successful outcomes through influence and persuasion rather than coercion and heavy-handed tactics. In addition, more than ever before, individuals need to be able to influence others on a 360-degree basis rather than just those individuals who report to them. This programme will equip participants with vital skills to help in those processes. The course material is based on sound psychological approaches to negotiation, which include an understanding of personality, motivation and intelligence. The more practical approaches of NLP, transactional analysis and the development of rapport skills are also covered. |

| The Employment Act & Regulations 1955 Workshop By Cyril Pagadala |
|
The Employment Act and Regulations 1955 forms the basis of employment contracts between employer and employee. It details the rights and responsibilities of both employer and employee.
The Employment Act is different from other laws. Although there are many provisions laid out in a straight forward manner, it does not allow the employer to take a purely legal approach in following the Employment Act.
This ‘humane’ law has to satisfy certain conditions before the legal approach can be taken Wrong or inequitable or ‘inhumane’ administration of the contract or Employment Act by ‘people managers’ leads to conflicts in an organization. Knowing the Employment Act 1955 prevents such conflicts.
The workshop is not only for HR professionals but also for all managers who supervise employees as the non-HR Managers counter problems first on a daily basis and sometimes the HR professional may not be readily available at that time.
This is a very detailed and comprehensive workshop. It is delivered in a straight forward, easy-to-understand and down-to-earth manner, cutting down on legal jargon wherever possible, which will also appeal to the non-legal mind. It is interpreted in practical terms and many practical workshops are conducted for ease of understanding. |
