Cloe Madanes

Immerse yourself in real-world examples of how to use and integrate your leadership strategies, guided by psychotherapy expert Cloe Madanes, Tony’s partner in his work and co-founder of coach training school Robbins Madanes Center. During this powerful session you will discover how to apply principles of empathy, language and negotiation to everyday situations — and how to transform the quality of your life and the lives of those around you.

Jan Hargrave

Nonverbal communication often communicates a different message from the spoken word. Jan Hargrave will reveal the ways in which your body communicates to the world around you, often in ways you are not aware of — and will also help you to be able to accurately “read” other people. Author of “Let Me See Your Body Talk” and “Strictly Business Body Language,” Jan has worked with thousands in the field of personal growth and self-expression via seminars and workshops for the past 10 years. Her work translates the “hidden messages” in our everyday lives, shows you how to spot lies and how to uncover the truth in any conversation or situation.
