Lecture - Speak up dear!
Stereotyping in the workplace
15.00-16.15hr - Online
English
Presenting yourself in front of or in a group is a great way to increase your professional visibility. But a woman who presents herself has to balance on a narrow beam. If she is too dominant, she will be rejected because she is not nice enough. If she is too nice again, she will not be taken seriously.
The lecture Speak up dear! shows you how to deal with this dilemma. With the help of video images, you will discover what determines charisma.
Why did Donald Trump convince and Hillary Clinton not? Which famous women visibly struggle with their authority?
You will also learn how you can invest not only in competence but also in warmth in order to maintain optimum support in your environment.
