Nancy Pelosi Exudes Power & Success
What's Her Secret?
The three women in the photo on the left are members of the US Senate. Nancy Pelosi, right, is the Speaker of the US House of Representatives. All have positions of immense power, but only one exudes power: Nancy Pelosi. Here's why:
Pastels diminish authority and make a woman appear sweet but less powerful. White is not a pastel. Professional makeup adds power, and Pelosi is the only one with dynamic-looking makeup. Lipstick, in particular, gives a woman a "big city" sophisticated look.
Dynamic accessories also add clout, as does an up- to-the-minute hairdo. Both shout "success and power."
A dynamic jacket also suggests sophistication and worldliness, an asset in politics. The pink jacket is great, unfortunately it's still a pastel. The two Senators in the back row both wear very bland garments, so their power and presence are diminished dramatically.

Business Casual Is Dead!
Long Live Classy Casual! A GUIDE FOR MEN
If you have ever wondered what "Business Casual" actually means in terms of dress, you aren't alone. In fact, I get calls repeatedly from CEOs who want me to come in and " do a workshop so the employees will know what Business Casual really means." Well, that's the problem with Business Casual - it can't be defined. You'll find out why when you read my new eBook on the subject!
This book was inspired by a seminar I attended recently that was given by Jeffrey Gitomer. There were about 2,000 people in attendance, and the majority of them were men. Very few people were "dressed to impress." Instead, most of them looked like they were ready to attend a garage sale.
This book will point out the difference between "Business Casualty" attire and "Classy Casual" attire. It is a book you can't be without if you are serious about your career.
