It can be very difficult to overcome the pervasive negative talk and indeed (often unacknowledged and unidentified) negative self-talk. So\, how are we going to develop and maintain the mindset that will guarantee reaching these goals? \nIn this webinar\, you will begin learning how to:\n\nHeal your relationship with yourself as you perform.\nGrow and develop constantly when performing professionally.\nGrow in confidence and inspire trust in colleagues and clients alike.\n\nAbout the Presenter\nChris Guichot de Fortis is a member of the International Association of Conference Interpreters (AIIC) with an MA from Cambridge University and an MA in conference interpreting (University of Bath).
