Workshops

Contact us about other topics you are interested in. We may have that topic also, but it is not presented here. Any topic in GR8 Leaders or GR8 Relationships is or can be a workshop. Most workshops are built to be a half-day, but some require a full day, and a few are best when covered over 2 or 3 days.

THOUGHT-Talk

Recipes for Clear, Persuasive, and Powerful Communication

Communication is an unlicensed superhighway filled with accidents just waiting to happen. Whether in the workplace, government, relationships, or day-to-day living, nothing wastes more time or causes more delays and setbacks than miscommunication. It seems like no matter how hard we try the words we share are misunderstood by the people we share them with. We get a driver's license because we have to learn a skill to get the results we want (arriving at our destination) with the greatest efficiency (we don't wreck or hurt others).

GR8 Results System

Your Strategic Planning and Doing Kit

In the past, you may have created a business plan because you just started your business, had a downturn in your business, or just thought it would be helpful to your business. No matter what your reason was in the past, it is easy to think you do not need to plan this year.

But a lot can happen in your business even in one year: your priorities may have shifted, you may have added new products, key staﬀ may have been added or moved on. In fact, your business may need to take a different course now, which means your long‐range plan does not reflect those changes. You need to think clearly about moving in a new direction.

Business strategy means having a long-range plan and milestones along the way that help you get there. And it should be something you do every year.

Conflict RESOLVED

How To Resolve Conflicts with the Conflict RESOLVED Recipe Card

What words come to your mind when you hear or read the word "conflict"? Most people think of fighting, controversy, pain, anger, disagreement, or war. So, what does that imply about our view of conflict - it's bad! That's why it's time to learn about conflict. A better view of conflict is that it can strengthen relationships, increase effectiveness, enhance performance, reduce stress, and improve morale. Yes, that is TRUE! We use the Thomas Kilman Conflict Mode Instrument in this workshop.

4 Steps to Higher Performance

Helping People Perform At the Next Level

Are you developing an open and honest work environment? You can help your organization's performance with Robert Fritz's Moment of Truth step-by-step process. You will be dealing with performance issues early on instead of waiting till it gets to be a bigger problem or "the right time". The Moment of Truth will give you the tools you need to help your employees face the truth without making them feel denigrated, inept, or incompetent. AND, at the same time you will be enhancing your own career by learning how to handle such a critical issue as employee performance.

Start Leading and Stop Controlling

GR8 Leaders Encourage Freedom and Choice

The damage from controlling executives and managers is largely ignored, because it is seen as normal, necessary, and worse – VALUABLE! Most managers and leaders resort to getting the results they want either through intimidation or manipulation. Ultimately, that damages the morale of the people, punishes individual productivity and innovation, and reduces long-term results.

You can solve that problem and become a superior leader!
