Resolve To Be Confident This Year!

People like to do business with people they like and who make them feel good. When you know what to do and how to properly do things, you gain a quiet confidence and self-respect. You are more enjoyable to be around and others want to work with you. You do well at work and make yourself, your team, your boss and your company look good in the process. How marvelous!

Resolve this new year to learn the skills you need to succeed. To get the ball rolling, follow our marvelous confidence-building checklist:

• Practice your posture – when sitting and standing

• Regardless of gender - extend your hand first to offer an inviting and firm handshake

• Smile and maintain eye contact

• Have an open stance and introduce yourself – and others - with ease

• Dress for success by always being appropriate for your body, the weather, the occasion, your industry and your wallet

Follow this checklist and improve your personal brand by putting your best polished foot forward in 2017.

Have a marvelous week - Catherine
