E.Q. and You - The Fundamentals of Emotional Intelligence
This hands down, is one of the most important topics to bring to your organization. If you need tangible reasons why, consider the following from the research, "A Business Case for Emotional Intelligence." Did you know that the level of emotional intelligence is the number one issue surrounding under performing, disruptive employees, and high performers?
"In jobs of medium complexity (sales clerks, mechanics), a top performer is 12 times
more productive than those at the bottom and 85 percent more productive than an
average performer. In the most complex jobs (insurance salespeople, account
managers), a top performer is 127 percent more productive than an average performer
(Hunter, Schmidt, & Judiesch, 1990). Competency research in over 200 companies
and organizations worldwide suggests that about one-third of this difference is due to
technical skill and cognitive ability while two-thirds is due to emotional competence
(Goleman, 1998). (In top leadership positions, over four-fifths of the difference is
due to emotional competence.) " For the complete report - click here

Below is a list of signature topics. I call my onsite workshops LAUNCH & Learns because we know that the learning just begins when you first hear the information; the training takes place when it's being purposefully applied - embedded into the everyday work experience. Consider a 1/2 day session. This could actually be of MORE value!
Each onsite client has the option of a full or 1/2 day session along coupled with e-coaching follow ups specific to the topic delivered.
Finally, an optional follow up individual or group coaching component is offered. The cost is determined based on the customized needs of the client.
Our philosophy? "Everyday is a training day", when employees are taught how to leverage their everyday work experience to learn and grow... and that part if free!
SIGNATURE WORKSHOPS
…includes a brief description of “off-the-shelf” workshops
available. Any topic can be tweaked or developed further
to meet a client’s need for a half day workshop and/or keynote.

The Power of Execution – Time Management and Organization Tips for the Busy Professional
A jam packed workshop of highly effective tips, techniques and principles to manage time and be more organized housed in the concept of execution for results.
Creative
& Innovative Thinking – The Next New Skill
A fun,
interactive workshop to guide attendees through practical tools on how
to generate ideas and develop innovative thinking. It's about solutions,
process improvement and doing more with less! Does your staff know how
to be that way and think that way? As stated by Richard Florida (author of "Rise of The
Creative Class") “Ideas are the new commodity of the 21st century.”
Can’t We All Just Get Along?
I believe one of the most
critical diversity
issues today is not necessarily race of ethnicity, but personality
differences on which team members get the least amount of training. This
essential workshop helps members identify their own personality type in
a very fun way and also gain understanding and a sense of value of
others with a engaging and enlightening interactive activity. A test is
also included that is very easy to administer and use. Additionally,
practical application is made of the findings which will serve to build
team synergy, increase effective collaboration, and nurture positive daily interaction of team members.
Leadership from the Inside-Out
An essential principle in effective leadership is who people are on the inside will dictate the kind of leader and the kind of team they will have on the outside. The inside can be characterized and authentic personal power. Attendees are guided through 13 points of a personal power wheel to provide tangible touch points for creating and maintaining personal power. This establishes the foundation for authentic leadership. This is a must have, foundational workshop for EVERY employee (individual contributor) and leader in your organization and that's why it's listed first.
Manager as Coach
Since leadership in many organizations is migrating from the old command and control model to the new model of coaching, facilitating and educating, this workshop teaches a highly effective coaching model that can be implemented in any organization and also provides a performance management tool for effortless performance appraisals while tying performance to business objectives.
How to Deal with Unacceptable Employee Behavior
This workshop takes participants on a journey that first lays a foundation of the orgin of behavior then moves on to how and why it goes wrong. Then, it rounds out the seminar with practical how-tos to address it with dignity and respect and satisfies requirements for HR as well.
The Best of Us: Qualities Uniquely Feminine that Have Taken Women to the Top in Their Profession
This keynote provides a fascinating look at the qualities that are uniquely feminine and how they have catapulted female leaders and their organizations to success.
Communication – The Unspoken Keys to the Most Effective Communication
A fresh approach to teaching effective communication is by teaching that we are not necessarily speaking to a person but to their mind. An essential component of communicating effectively is understanding how the mind works and then with that knowledge using unique techniques that can be used to achieve better outcomes. Some of the techniques are taken from NLP (neuro linquistic programing). I call these specific techniques "3D Communication."
How to Manage Conflict with Finesse and Tact
Very few professionals I know at any level do this well. In fact, the number 1 tactic is avoidance. This is not leadership in any way AND a lot of time is wasted in companies because the skills are not in place to effectively manage conflict or nip it in the bud so it doesn't escalate. Give your teams the gift of this knowledge. It will impact your bottom line!
The Me, Inc. Mindset
A great workshop to equip individual contributors to take responsibility for and manage their careers. I believe that those who do this, end up being better employees because they are empowering themselves and taking 100% responsibility for their own professional journey (teaching employees not to be so company dependent). In fact, I don't use the term "employee," I use the term individual contributor.
Train the Trainer – A Creativity Camp for the Most Creative Trainers
With hundreds of workshops and seminars conducted both publicly and onsite, I’ve collected and developed many effective techniques to engage attendees and increase retention within that setting. I’ve conducted many seminars delivering these ideas and techniques. This is a power packed workshop sure to get results!
