We debuted our "Get out of the Gate" session this week after an executive from a major wellness company shared his challenge of getting out of the gate in conversations and presentations.

He's not alone. Many people start out slow, with filler and other weak words, to the tune of "Well, I um am glad to uh be here today. First thing, I have to say..." You get the idea.

The problem is our attention spans don't match the timing and even if the messaging becomes strong 30 seconds later, people have already tuned out.

Contact us to learn more about our TALLsmall trainings. We'll show you how to grab the reigns and start strong.

Keith Scott and I dispensed body language & dating do's and don'ts this week on Good Morning Washington.
