Teresa Dukes delivered a programme entitled BELIEF, which is her concept of stepping out of your comfort zone and into uncharted territory. Teresa believes six personal elements can be applied to your everyday lives to achieve this. You either jump off the cliff and fly, or you nest and hide.
Apprentice Chris Jones, who attended the day, said "Teresa helped me feel more confident in my ability to present and the advice she gave really hit home. In particular I have always hated how speeches can sound pre-prepared and over rehearsed if delivered incorrectly. I plan to take her advice by making my future presentations more personal, and let my passion shine through about my belief in the modern apprenticeship."
Teresa said, "I believe that everyone has the ability to apply these six elements of BELIEF in every aspect of their lives which will help them find the confidence to accomplish their goals and progress their careers down the path they choose to follow."
