IT’S ALL IN THE MIND
Diane Simpson is pleased to present a
series of talks relating to behaviour and the mind.
Some of the presentations work better with a smaller
audience, while others are absolutely right for any number. Some are more suited
to seminars and conferences whereas others fit more easily into informal
events.
ALL of
the presentations can
be tailored or combined to complement YOUR event ...simply by completing the questionnaire!

MIND' This entertaining presentation is an
introduction to graphology ...the science of personality assessment via the
analysis of writing.
This interactive talk takes the
audience on a stroll through the mind of a serial killer all the way to how to
write with your 'wrong' hand.
Includes the
opportunity for every member of the audience to take a look at what their own
writing reveals. Astounding graphics and a wealth of humour. Sceptics
especially welcome.

But first
please tell me what you want...
ALL of my presentations contain humour and
require a varying degree of audience participation; some require the use of
visual projection and MOST can be adapted and/or combined to suit virtually any
occasion. To tailor the presentation to the event it is necessary to know as
much as possible about the occasion, so to enable me to decide the most
appropriate content for your talk please print out the questionnaire, then complete all relevant
details and send it to me ASAP.
The questionnaire is designed to
fit most eventualities. It is entirely confidential and will be used for no
other purpose than to ensure that the chosen talk will fit to perfection. No
copies will be made and the completed questionnaire will not be retained. When
you complete the questionnaire you may find some of the questions to be
entirely irrelevant to your event ...but answering whichever questions apply
will help 'tailor' the presentation to the event and therefore go a long way to
make the occasion even more of a success!
CANCELLATIONS...
Please take note that once a date [for a talk, an exhibition or work-shop] has
been confirmed (verbally or in writing), I will hold the date[s] regardless of
fire, flood, earthquake OR other bookings. Therefore, when an engagement is
cancelled, unless I am able to get another booking for that day, a fee is
payable.
REMEMBER
THIS... There are three fears that most people suffer at one time or another.
The third worst fear is - PUBLIC SPEAKING. The second worst fear is - DYING.
But the worst fear of all is - DYING WHILE SPEAKING IN PUBLIC [....sniffle]
