PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY:
The Power of Positive DOING

Many people talk about the power of positive thinking ... this high energy session is about the power of positive DOING! When do you feel really good about yourself? It's when you DO something. When you do something to make progress toward a goal -- when you check off items on your to-do list -- when you're in action, getting things done. Personal accountability simply means stepping up to the plate, owning your life, taking action on your own behalf. Learn how to live powerfully and get more of what you want out of work (and life) by becoming more accountable ... to YOURSELF!

 

 

THE BLAME GAME:
Building a Culture of Personal Accountability In Your Organization

Widespread "victim" thinking, whining, finger-pointing, helplessness, and blaming are behaviors that plague many organizations today. Employees and management alike often seem caught up in a vicious cycle of "The Blame Game." This stimulating, interactive session addresses the personal and organizational costs of "victim" thinking and behavior, and demonstrates that the solution is a dynamic shift to personal accountability. Participants will learn how to help both individuals and organizations transform blaming into problem-solving, "victim" thinking into "ownership" thinking, and "poor me" into "personal accountability" resulting in empowered, proactive, productive people.

 

 

HOW TO MANAGE YOUR BOSS AND OTHER IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE
Most people don't realize that management is a two-way street -- the same techniques that we use to "manage down" can be used to "manage up." People are people, whether they are bosses or employees, co-workers, friends or family members -- the same principles apply to managing our relationships with them. This entertaining presentation will include specific tips on motivation, communication, influence skills, and how to get other people to do what you want -- both in your professional life and your personal life.

 

 

GETTING GOOD AT GETTING ALONG
This presentation is based on a chapter in her new book, "Everything I Need to Know I Learned from Other Women." Designed specifically to teach practical skills that seminar participants can use right away, both at work and in their personal lives. Topics include:

Using "I" Language
Dealing with Conflict
Know Your Audience
Communication: Bowling versus Ping Pong
Asking for What You Want and Need from Others
Managing Your Boss and Other Important Relationships
