Corporate Group Trainings:

The Power of Color in Business and Leadership. Color affects us on both a conscious and unconscious level every day. Discover how the colors you wear every day affect others and how the calculated use of color can support your long-term goals. Learn strategies for combining colors for specific effects, and find out how a few simple wardrobe changes can increase your personal power.

Professional Attire for Men and Women. Your appearance reflects your personal style and attitude. It speaks volumes about who you are, what you think, and where you’re going in life. Learn the secret of a successful appearance in a competitive market—and the blunders to avoid. 

Business Appropriate:  It’s Time to Put the “Business” Back into Business Casual.  “Business Appropriate” is the current term for lifting people out of casual confusion. Learn how to be powerful when you need to be more effective in a casual environment. Identify your personal keys to a more professional appearance.

Don’t want to be the one to tell someone they’re dressing inappropriately? Individual consultations (which can follow a group presentation) provide kind, tactful guidance about appropriate dress for the office, for sales calls, or for presentations, always keeping the individual’s personal style in mind.

Discover Your Personal Power through Image. An effective image will strengthen your relationships, improve your communication skills, and enhance your self-esteem.  Participants will discover the difference between looking powerful and using specific looks to achieve particular results—a more subtle kind of power.

Style & Proportion:  What Fits You Best Today. A realistic program showcasing up-to-date trends and discussing which styles will look best on which body proportions.

Dining for Success. More than a third of all business deals, hiring decisions and relationships are made at the restaurant table. You may not even be aware of what you’re doing wrong, but what you don’t know can affect your future. Learn how to improve your skills to better represent yourself and your company when dining out with clients or colleagues. Gain poise and confidence, so you shine wherever you dine. Private tutoring available.

Color & Image Services for Attorneys/Law Offices:

Attorneys can benefit from the above-listed corporate trainings for general business purposes. However, if you participate in settlement conferences or appear in court, you may wish to schedule a personal consultation to learn how to present yourself effectively in different situations. For example, you should dress differently to interview a child witness than you would for questioning a criminal defendant or for presenting closing arguments.

Private consultations can also be an excellent way to present your clients or witnesses in a specific way. Color, style and grooming can change an intimidating appearance to one that appears more likeable, or vulnerable, or approachable. Personal appearance can also enhance credibility.

"As with most companies, we had a dress code policy that stated that employees should dress 'appropriately for their position' but as most of us know, this usually leaves a lot of room for personal interpretation. We hired Bernie to work with our employees in projecting a professional image and we were more than pleased with the results! She addressed the issue in a "fun" manner and worked with our employees both as a group and on an individual basis. Her closet audit exercise was perhaps the most valuable aspect in terms of bringing the concept of acceptable business attire literally "home". I highly recommend her services and I know that my staff were very pleased with the results as well. It was truly a 'win/win' situation for all!"
