SAN FRANCISCO (Business Wire EON) June 26, 2008 -- Greater capacity for critical and big-picture thinking More effective methods of communication More resilient attitudes New ways of engaging others Greater influence over their personal and professional success Signature Presence is targeted at individuals who feel underutilized, uninspired, or uncertain in their current work and life circumstances and are ready to make a positive change in direction or attitude. High-performing individuals who have achieved some measure of success in their career, but need help pushing through roadblocks to continue their personal/professional growth, will also benefit. Signature Presence also can help organizations work more effectively toward achieving corporate goals by best capitalizing on the talents and aspirations of individual contributors.
"As I have moved up to greater positions of authority in my career, the increase in responsibilities on top of my existing workload was, at times, overwhelming. I found it harder to focus on the parts of my work that I enjoyed and required my unique talents and instead got bogged down by activities that did much to increase my stress level but little to advance my own personal goals for success. I also was letting my work pressures bleed into my personal life," said Megan Atiyeh, strategist at Engage PR (www.engagepr.com), an award-winning high-tech public relations agency. "The Signature Presence training has given me a new perspective and focus as well as specific tools that not only make me more effective in my job and a stronger mentor and leader, but also help me really enjoy myself and others in the process."
