Personal Colour and Style

The Image Professional's Training Program.

Educating and assisting individuals and organisations about first impressions, body image and self esteem is the essence of the Image and Colour Consultant's work.  The Image Profession will always have room for dedicated, caring professionals within its ranks.  

Successful Image Professionals enjoy people, are committed to their clients and are patient.

Successful Image Professionals communicate well, present well, and can competently address small to medium size groups.

Successful Image Consultants are open to feedback and willing to commit to personal learning and change.   The ability to self-promote is important.  Business experience or a basic business course along with the fundamentals of accounting are also desirable skills for the individual embarking on a new career as an Image Professional.

Chris is an internationally accredited and certified Image Professional with over twenty-six years of experience as a practitioner and industry trainer both in Australia and overseas.   Initially appointed as trainer for Always In Style Asia-Pacific in 1989, Chris continues to train and mentor new consultants annually.

Chris brings a huge range of information and an unequalled knowledge base and skills set plus an extensive contacts list to every training program she conducts.

Her book "What colour am I?" is in its second print and she has a patent pending on the concepts within it.  She recently launched her second book "The Heart of Make-up".

Her personal client base exceeds 26,000 and she has assisted hundreds of businesses and top 100 corporations. Chris has served at Executive level - Secretary and past President of the Association of Image Consultants International,Sydney, Australia.

"Chris is the consummate professional in everything she undertakes.  Few would be her equal."

--- C. Scott, Eastwood NSW

"Chris has an impeccable reputation for her knowledge, thoroughness, organisation, attention to detail, communications ability, delivery style and follow through.  She expects the same of all whom she works with, especially those she trains, as they ultimately represent and reflect on her reputation out in the market place. As a past trainer in the industry I am aware of the varied and broad range of skills required to train others in this industry.  It is one thing to be well advised and experienced and quite another to be competent to transfer these skills to others.  Chris is one of only two or perhaps three people in Australia with these specialised skills, backed up with extensive experience and who also has the qualifications to effectively and professionally deliver this unique training. Chris is a founding member of the Image industry in Australia and is held in the highest regard by her peers across Australia, and by her peers in the USA.  She has trained many consultants and thousands of participants at her training sessions.  When I entered the Image industry, many years ago her reputation was already established and revered.  Chris was and is The Role Model. Chris is the consummate professional in everything she undertakes.  Few would be her equal."
