Image Workshops and Seminars
 Interactive - Keynote Speaking |
Your corporate image relies heavily on the individuals that make up your company, as your employees represent your company, the way they present themselves reflects on the way the company is perceived by potential customers. It is therefore important that your employees project a professional, appropriate and consistent image at all times.

Testimonial - St Paul's Grammar School
Annalisa Armitage has worked at our school in a consultancy capacity on two occasions. We have found her to possess excellent communication skills, impeccable presentation and a professional yet accessible demeanour.
Annalisa presented an informative and interesting two hour presentation to our Year 9 and 10 textile Technology students in June 2009 on topics such as: The Impact of Colour in Dress Design; Correct Clothes for Body Types; Dressing for interviews; and Why Image is Important.
Annalisa was very professional in her instruction, displaying thorough knowledge of subject content and competence in delivery. Our students were captivated by her excellent presentation.
Annalisa returned to the school again in October to present a styling workshop to our female staff. The group of thirty women were motivated and engaged for the entire five hour workshop. The topics covered included dressing for professional success, dressing for your body type, colour, how to shop productively and how to assemble a professional wardrobe.

Testimonial - Corporate dressing workshop - Macquarie University
"Annalisa captivated all the participants of the workshop, engaging everyone in an interactive discussion of what attire works and what doesn't. It was a very enriching session, and I can safely say that all 25 of us walked away armed with more knowledge about the right fit, colour and style to wear the create the impression we want to give in the corporate world. We will definitely request for Annalisa to give another presentation should a similar opportunity present itself in the future."
Thanks again for the wonderful workshop.

Unsolicited Testimonial - from Attendee of Think Tank workshop - Brisbane Nov 2009
Hi Annalisa
"I would like to thank you for your wonderful presentation in Brisbane on Wednesday 25th November at the Marriott Hotel. It was a great pleasure meeting you and thoroughly enjoyed the day.
I picked up many hints and tips and I have found confidence in myself where I will go out and stand tall.
Thank you for the tips for high heels. I am looking for my new pair of fabulous heels. I often wander into Wittner and look at the fabulous heels they have but have never had the confidence to try them on. I will be now.
Thank you once again and I hope that I can attend another one of your workshops one day."
Kind regards
Julia Clarke

Testimonial - Accelerating Executive Presence Program - Generator Talent
We’d like to take the opportunity to recommend Annalisa and her most recent work she completed for us. As part of our Accelerating Executive Presence program www.acceleratingep.com Annalisa was given the task of presenting to eight executives at General Manager, CEO and CFO level, from a range of different industries on the 3rd of December 2009.
She presented on why image matters, the impact of dressing and presenting well as an executive, and the effect it has on one’s executive presence. In terms of dressing appropriately and with impact, Annalisa helped develop ambitions and goals with each participant in relation to their current role, and consulted with and developed an action plan on how to achieve what was discussed.
Annalisa did an excellent job and presented effectively. We were impressed with her style, knowledge and her ability to engage well with each participant. We will continue to use Annalisa as part of our future AEP programs and highly recommend her.
