    Consultation Services

    Clare Maxfield- Image Consultation Services

    Personal Consultation services are available for Corporate Coaching of your employees. During these sessions I work with the individual to help them develop a ‘look’ in keeping with the business brand, their position within the business and their personality. They will learn how to achieve this look easily and effortlessly. It may be that recommendations will be made to change their appearance or their wardrobe which will be at the expense of the company or themself as agreed in advance.

    After an initial consultation with the employee I will provide you with a report outlining recommendations and findings. Areas which may pose a confidentiality risk will be kept to within the consultation but all other information which will reflect upon the company will be noted

    -You made the presentation interesting

    I thought that Clare was a good presenter.  She spoke really well and was able to keep everyone interested.  Her stories were really good as well and tied in well with the topic she was talking about.
    Feedback from cadets at Ernst & Young

     

    The three presentations you delivered for us on ‘Presenting a Professional Image’ were informative and entertaining.  As a professional services firm it is critical for us to present and conduct ourselves professionally at all times.  Your sessions provided us with an array of do’s and don’ts and a much better understanding of how to ‘Dress for Success’.
    Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience with us and for also providing us with your e-book, ‘Corporate Connections’.  Every single person took away new ways to improve and boost their professional image.
    On behalf of Pitcher Partners, Thank you.
