This event is organized by The Ivy Plus Society (TIPS). 

You never get a second chance to make a great first impression; so you'd better get it right the first time. TIPS wants to help you out on that score: We've secured Forbes columnist and internationally renowned speaker Olivia Fox Cabane for her keynote presentation: The Science of Trust, Influence and Persuasion.

Olivia will speak from 7-8 pm, with a networking cocktail reception (cash bar) to follow until 10 pm. Seating is limited and this event WILL SELL OUT, so buy your tickets quickly if you plan on attending.

About the presentation: You only get one chance to make the right first impression. Within a few seconds, people judge your level of intelligence, trustworthiness, and social status. This happens in an instant, and yet can impact the way you're perceived for the rest of the relationship. How can you turn this to your advantage? This workshop will cover the science of charisma; the keys to making fantastic first impressions, and the secrets to having that “boardroom presence” to quickly establish credibility, trust, and rapport.

About Olivia Fox Cabane: Olivia has lectured at Stanford, MIT and the United Nations; she is a frequent keynote speaker and executive coach for the leadership of Fortune 500 companies. She is often featured in media such as The New York Times, Bloomberg and Business Week and was recently profiled in The Wall Street Journal. An expert in the fields of trust, influence, and persuasion, Olivia helps people gain the skills and the self-confidence that lead to outstanding performance. From a base of thorough behavioral science, she extracts the most practical tools for business, giving her clients techniques she originally developed for Harvard and MIT. (www.askolivia.com)
