CAERPHILLY Business Forum has lured the UK's leading expert on body language to give a talk at Blackwood Miners' Institute next month.

Allan Pease is a multi-million selling author and TV documentary maker. His TV and video series Body Language was watched by over 100 million people.

Born in Australia, Mr Pease began his career at ten selling products door-to-door. By 21 he was the youngest person in Australia to sell a million dollars of life insurance.

Working with his wife, ex-model and businesswoman Barbara, Mr Pease has written eight best-selling books which have been translated into 47 languages and sold 16 million copies.

Titles have included: Why Men Don't Listen and Women Can't Read Maps and Why Men Can Only Do One Thing At a Time and Women Never Stop Talking.

He delivers many seminars on how the use of good body language can aid success in the market place and how men and women can understand each other better.

On September 24 he will give a lunchtime presentation at the institute from 12.45pm to 2pm. Tickets cost £14 and are available from the box office on 01495 227206.
