Foundation
Whether it be organizational change, project management, coaching or sales, the basic building block of business is the conversation.
The 4S Conversations® model, that our curriculum was founded on, has been updated and expanded to address today’s communication challenges. It’s the first step to creating a culture of conversational excellence.
Our 4S™ Foundation program is the first step in creating a culture of conversational excellence.
Through the 4S™ Foundation program, your team members will learn to align their conversations, coaching, and feedback with the organization’s larger goals and strategies creating a seamless connection between an individual’s role and responsibilities and your organization’s definition of success.
By mastering the 4S™ approach, your managers will be able to:
- Clarify Success
- Establish what “good looks like” in terms of individual, departmental and organizational goals.
- Deliver actionable, relevant and success-focused feedback.
- Create high-impact relationships.
- Create focused and high-return action plans that power measurable and sustainable results.
Focus Forward
Conversational Excellence
Conversational Excellence™ training programs help teams: gain a clear understanding of success, take ownership in executing what is in their control, and helps them become more aware and respectful of others’ intentions.
Write Right – NEW
You whip out emails and texts all the time. But when you have to email or text something more than important than LOL or BRB do you obsess over what to write?
Does it take you forever to write it?
Do people read what you’ve written and wonder what you were trying to say?
If you’ve said yes to any of these questions, this class is for you.
WRITE RIGHT is a workshop that will help you become more comfortable and concise with the written word. You’ll learn how to think and write clearly, write better, and critique your own stuff.
Body Language Says More Than Words – NEW
When you’re talking to someone do you think about how you’re sitting, the angle of your head, or where your hands are? Probably not, but you should. Because your nonverbal communication can say more than your words. While your words provide content your body expresses intent and can shape the tone and outcome of your conversation.
In this workshop, we focus on the affects of gestures and movements and how to use body language to create productive conversations.
Change Management
Change is hard because what’s familiar is what’s comfortable. We gravitate to what we know and hang on to it for dear life. It’s no surprise that it’s human nature to fear change…especially at work. One thing that makes change so hard on-the-job is lack of communications. Oftentimes senior management wants to have everything in place before starting the change conversation with the rest of the organization. But, truth be told, employees know when something’s brewing and in the absence of transparency and planned conversations rumors start. And then productivity decreases, moral plummets and people leave.
In this course, you will learn the best ways to understand, communicate and manage change to keep the culture of your organization calm and positive.
The Millennial Mystery – NEW
Our 4S™ Young Talent program bridges a gap that is all too common with onboarding and developing the Millennial generation.
We adapted our 4S Conversations® model to teach them how to have effective conversations, with a focus on composure during difficult situations. We help them understand the importance of feedback, including how to give and receive it constructively. And ultimately, provide them with the tools that are necessary to build stronger relationships.
Emotional Intelligence
Emotional Intelligence. We know it when we see it but how do we know if we have it? Are we driving productivity or driving people crazy? People are people and no matter if they’re at work or in their personal life, they feel and react to situations. In business, it’s critical for managers to use their emotional intelligence (EI) to be aware of their own emotions and the emotions of the people they work with in order to be most effective and to help their team reach their goals. Studies have shown that “people with high EI have greater mental health, job performance and leadership skills. In fact, emotional intelligence accounted for 67% of the abilities deemed necessary for superior performance in leaders, and mattered twice as much as technical expertise or IQ.”
For some, emotional intelligence comes naturally. For others, it’s a skill that can be learned. This course helps people gain awareness, communicate and interact at a higher level of emotional intelligence.
Executive Coaching
People who think executives lead companies are only seeing half the picture. Because companies are only as good as their people and their people are only as effective as the motivation they get from their senior managers.
So while executives are focused on the company’s performance, we’re focused on their performance.
We recognize that company cultures and the executives who drive them are each unique. And therefore, so is our Executive Coaching program. We design customized one-to-one sessions, for the C-level or EVP officer that we approach through a future-forward lens. Our positive projection model has proven to help executives catapult their trust to new levels, which in turn helps their company’s performance soar.
Coaches’ Corner
Do you have people or situations in your company (or your personal life) that are driving you crazy? (We know you do…everyone does.) The good news is, there’s usually a pretty easy solve. What we’ve experienced is that those people mean well, but they lack the appropriate conversational tools and skills to engage and maintain a productive conversation. That’s why we created Coaches’ Corner, private coaching for people at all levels, designed as a “drop-in clinic.” The program is on an as-needed basis. So there’s no major commitment of time or financial resources. Think of Coaches’ Corner as quick fixes to avert major issues.
