This Week's Meeting
 Orlando P Metcalf III, TAI Groupe LLC
The 3 Power E's in the Workplace - Etiquette, Emotion, Ethics
Many times we face conflicting constraints in executing our daily tasks. This Wednesday we will discuss maintaining equilibrium among the E's while we improve our communication skills. If this "Me Too" Era has taught us anything, it is that the rules of engagement change rapidly.
To keep it real, bring workplace situations for group evaluation.
See you there.
More importantly, Bring plenty of Business Cards and be ready to network!

Etiquette IQ
Welcome to Sharon Hill’s world… a world where everyone follows the basic rules of grace and manners, better known as ETIQUETTE.

Come prepared to share your stories of dealing with unprofessional business people.

Did You Know:
 From: Lee Schearer,
To: My Fellow Chapel Hill Leads Group Members
"Enliven Your 30 second Presentation"
One of the best ways to keep the attention of a group is to hold an exhibit when speaking. Hopefully an object that represents what it is you do or an object that will keep the attention of your audience. When holding the exhibit, make sure every person can see it. Many times a presenter may block the view or does not hold it so that everyone can view the object. Holding it high allows everyone to see it.
I invite you to join me this Wednesday morning and to join your fellow entrepreneurs in learning how to succeed in growing your business. Our web-address is www.chapelhillleads.com.
The price is small but the value is priceless.
Respectfully,
Lee Schearer

Attention CHLG Members - The Chapel Hill Leads Group's goal is to raise 100+ boxes of cereal a month. If everyone brought one box of cereal to two meetings this month, the Chapel Hill Leads Group would easily exceed the 100 boxes of cereal goal.
