Effective Communication: Personal Strengths and Relationship Awareness

Is communication a problem in your organization? This workshop has been used in workplaces worldwide to increase understanding of the motivation behind behavior to build effective relationships at work, eliminate misunderstandings and learn simple and effective strategies for conflict management.

Personal Productivity: From Overwhelmed to Organized, Calm and Effective

Are your employees drowning in endless email, constant meetings and repeated interruptions? Are their desks overflowing with stacks of paper, reports and articles? The Personal Productivity workshop combines tools to get more done, work on the right things, and use a system that supports personal organization and efficiency. Help your employees manage more in a day with less stress by giving them the productivity practices recognized as the gold standard by many of the world’s best companies

Creating an Engaged Workplace

Engaged workplaces are all about trusting relationships, clear expectations, frequent, open, 2-way communication and honest feedback about performance. This workshop teaches effective, yet simple, strategies to build engagement and effective relationships at the front line – where engagement matters most. Proven tools and tips mean participants can immediately put into action what they learned and start making a difference that impacts the bottom line.

Managing Organization Change at the Front Line

Is your organization struggling to deal with change? When workplaces are going through changes, restructuring or introduction of new work practices, it affects the dynamic. Not everyone adapts at the same pace, and some are affected more than others. Managing change successfully is more than having a comprehensive plan. It’s also about focusing on the individuals who are on the front lines of change. Our workshops help front line managers learn how to handle, manage, and implement change—but we go beyond that. We teach them how to build commitment to change, manage the emotions that get in the way of motivation and lead the conversations that help people grow and learn.
