Quick-wittedness can be trained

 The Saarpfalz District Women's Office is offering a two-day seminar on Saturday, 9 November, from 10 am to 4 pm and on Saturday, 16 November, from 10 am to 2 pm entitled "Never be speechless again! - Train your quick-wittedness and counter confidently".

There's hardly a woman who hasn't experienced it: a supposedly funny joke at her expense, disrespectful remarks large and small from other people, praise that wasn't meant seriously or cheeky criticism that simply leaves you speechless. You would love to fend off unfair verbal attacks, point out your own limits and defend yourself effectively, but your mind is a blank and not a single sentence can be uttered.

The seminar led by Hilla Klingen, qualified individual psychological counsellor, career counsellor and coach, gets to the bottom of the causes of speechlessness in certain situations. Using examples, she trains effective techniques and practical methods to defuse conflicts confidently and self-assuredly, master embarrassing situations eloquently and strengthen your own self-confidence in the process.

Please register by 1 November at [email protected] or by calling (06841) 104 - 7138. Participation costs 115 euros, reduced 86 euros.
