New Program!!!

February 1, 2012 8:07 am

I am flying to NYC today to meet with Niki Flacks, Charla Montgomery and Marsha Clark to develop our new program Women Leaders Talk. Many woman today are in positions of leadership and power. Yet we still have a disparity of pay, power and authority. Women need the skills that their male counterparts naturally exhibit when they are in negotiations, leading meetings, giving presentations and coaching their direct reports. This new program will be a two day intensive leadership communication training course that is geared specifically to women who hold positions of leadership or hope to one day. It will be a must for any professional woman looking to improve her performance as a leader! More information coming soon!!!

It’s 2012!

A new year, quite a few new programs and designs.  I’ve been working non stop since last December (that is December 2010) and it’s been a fabulous year.

The most recent program design includes VirtualTalk offered by The Bergerac Group.  We have a lot of customization we can do with this virtual communication skills program.  Pilot programs have already been successful with Novation, Westinghouse and VHA as of this week. 

Another new program is Delighting Customers for Life, a PPG MVP program.  This program uses the Kano model of customer satisfaction along with Social Style profiling to learn how to meet various customer needs. 

If 2012 is anything like 2011, I will be busy.  We are also looking at making Virtual Talk into a book.  So, stay tuned.  Lots and lots of new things coming up.  Have a blessed New Year.  I know I will!

How Driving Style People Can be More Effective

SOCIAL STYLE TIp of the Day
What Can A Driving Style Do to Please Co-workers?
Working on your Style’s Growth Action is a sure-fire way to improve interactions with colleagues. For Driving Style people, that means doing a better job of listening. Because they are very active and energetic, they frequently do not slow down long enough to gather important information. They can help others, as well as their own productivity, by taking the time to listen to others’ input, ideas, and concerns. Although it can be challenging to do this, it will actually add to their efficiency because they will be better informed and they will earn the support of their co-workers.
