Change Management for High-Impact Projects
"Change management is the art and science of leading an organization and its
people through the predictable transitions from one stage of development to
another." How do you communicate to employees and others across the life of a
high-impact project? With proven skills and techniques, we lead your
communication strategy to lead you to success. Maneuvering through the change
cycle, handling personal and personnel transitions, overcoming change
reluctance and building buy-in for change initiatives are a few of the many
learning outcomes of this training and/or consultation. The psychology of
change post 9/11 is pragmatically concretized in clear steps and strategies
through this intensive workshop. One to three days.
"In times of change, learners inherit the earth, while the learned find
themselves beautifully equipped to deal with a world that no longer exists."

lead teams rather than individuals? How do true coaches effect performance

Giving Extraordinary Customer Service
It's been 20 years since Tom Peters' seminal In Search of Excellence
, and many organizations still don't get it. They lose customers, funding and
government contracts because they botch the basics. Leaders often feel helpless
to effect lasting improvement. But the answer abides in tweaking or
reengineering organizational Systems and Structures, while working with the
service providers to train measurable human skills. The motivational and
skills-based training aspect covers the gambit with high-energy, vivid
participation, hardcore examples and take-away practicals. From "Who is the
customer?" to "The Six Dimensions of Adding Value," to handling angry customers
to telephone, counter and e-mail skills. From one hour keynote to two days deep
training. Any size audience, including IT and other techies. Fun, helpful,
confidence building. We conduct four and five diamond excellence training for
the best in the world in hospitality and this is the piece for front-liners and
their supervisors or team leaders.

strategic planning sessions and organizational events. We facilitate meetings
through to desired outcomes and successful implementation, despite the

recorded training tape series was "Managing Today's Nonprofit." We teach these
skills to your staff and in-house facilitators as well. From setting the agenda
to follow-up meeting notes, from using recorders and timekeepers to leveling
any group, these skills are timeless. Any period of time, any size audience.
