Free Private Counseling Sessions

The difference between success and failure is knowing when to ask for help.

The Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce is offering members One-Hour Private Counseling sessions with a SCORE business counselor. A SCORE counselor serves as your personal business coach.

SCORE, the Corp of Retired Business Executives, is teaming with the Chamber to bring you new opportunities to get assistance in growing and improving your business.

As an added service, SCORE executives will send a team of two or three executives, with experience in your area of business, onsite to your business to help you create new opportunities for growth in these difficult economic times or give you guidance on new funding available through the various stimulus programs the administration is providing. Again this service is free to our members.

One hour counseling is available on the first Wednesday of each month throughout the year at the Chamber Offices in Town Square.

Presentations with a Punch!
Presented by Darren LaCroix

How to quickly and easily give better presentations!

The biggest fear most people have is public speaking. Most of us would rather jump out of a plane than give a presentation to a group or speak in public.

This month’s Business Education Series seminar is a high-energy lesson on the do’s and don’ts of presentations and will help you take the fear out of giving your next presentation or speech.

Darren LaCroix tried his hand at stand-up comedy more than two decades ago and it was a disaster. After his lack luster debut, he honed his skills and became a world champion public speaker. Since 2002, LaCroix has been sharing his secrets for developing and delivering powerful and effective presentations.

You’ll learn…

• What the presentation “killersâ€� are and how to avoid them
• How to avoid other common public speaking mistakes
• What are the crucial elements of a powerful presentation
• Where and when to use humor
• How to breathe life into your next presentation
• And much more…

For more information on Darren LaCroix, please visit www.DarrenLaCroix.com.

Cost is $30 for Chamber members with a prepaid reservation, $45 for non-Chamber members with a prepaid reservation and $50 for walk-ins. Week of event price: $5 additional.
