25th Anniversary Management Seminar Birmingham
500 store managers attended this event. Graham spoke on the topic of 'Getting Your Message Across with Impact'. He demonstrated how to structure a talk to engage people.

Instead Graham used skills of drawing the ideas ‘live’ onto a huge screen as he spoke. This certainly kept audience attention and made it memorable.
Conference organisers were delighted with the results.
