This is open to all who are interested, not just ANZCAL members and suitable for anyone who wants to learn how to get rapport more quickly, how to be influential in communication and how to observe the subtle things that occur naturally in communication.  Your registration to this includes a free entry to the Mix n Mingle event as well.
