Don't Try to Teach a Pig to Sing

Have you ever attended a class or workshop to gain a missing skill that someone told you was needed, or to improve your knowledge in an area in which you have little interest?  Why?  It’s an unfortunate reality that we often look at development in terms of filling the gaps – identifying our weaknesses and doing something to “fix” them, rather than focusing on how to leverage our best.

 

It’s time to learn how to stop this retrofitting!  In this fascinating and dynamic presentation, we explore the immense opportunities that open up if we begin to concentrate on our strengths and not our weaknesses.  We don’t need to repair our limitations in order to grow – actually, just the opposite is true!  When we identify our superb talents and gifts – and build more and more opportunities to use them in our lives, we will grow, develop and achieve with great joy and success!

 


 

Leading from Authenticity

We believe leadership is an essential topic to all professionals, regardless of whether or not they hold formal leadership roles.  We are particularly intrigued by the idea of applying leadership principles to individual contributors, business owners & entrepreneurs, internal and external consultants who serve clients, and people who simply choose to step into a leadership role in their family, their community, or their profession.

 

In this thought-provoking presentation about values and integrity, We'll define and illustrate what authentic leadership is and is not.  Discover the new essentials of leadership in the 21st century – such as a sense of adventure, taking risks, and serving others – which amend and complement the classic leadership characteristics that include a compelling vision and setting standards of excellence.  This energizing and inspiring message will entice audience participants to step more fully into their authentic selves, and be liberated to lead in whatever aspects of their life they desire.

 


 

Choosing & Sustaining Work / Life Balance:

A Leader’s Paradox

The quest for a balanced existence has been a national obsession since the founding fathers proclaimed the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness!  Unfortunately, many leaders find balance to be elusive at best, in spite of endless attempts to achieve it.  As leaders, we experience a paradox of wanting to encourage our employees to work hard – with dedication, commitment, and passion – and yet to work healthy and to maintain a commitment to family and personal life.

 

How can we expect this balancing act of others when we cannot accomplish it ourselves?  In this powerful presentation, you will learn that it IS possible to create and sustain balance; to align your day-to-day choices and actions with your values and passion; to say “No” to time and energy drains; and to support your staff as they attempt to do likewise.  The key to life balance is making powerful choices each and every day that support and express you in all the dimensions of your life.  Work / Life Balance is an incredibly effective tool for leaders, managers, executives – and those who support them.
