Julie French :

The title of Julie's presentation is "Create Better Business Relationships Using DiSC®"

Creating and maintaining good relationships with people is a fundamental part of building a business. Whether it’s with your work colleagues, your business network, prospective clients, existing clients or suppliers, getting on well with different types of people is essential!

Sometimes when you communicate with people, there’s a natural connection! You 'gel'! It’s as if you’ve known them all your life!

At other times it’s as if the person is from another planet!

In this informative and lively presentation, Julie French will give you insights about your self and other people that will help you to understand why different people respond the way they do and what you can do to adapt your behaviour to create better relationships.
