From assertiveness to problem solving to meeting and time management, discover your natural strengths and capabilities and develop valuable skills.
Assertiveness & Confidence

The assertive skills you have must evolve to keep pace with the new millennium. What are the assertive interaction tools and strategies you can utilize to communicate with impact? How can you better influence your colleagues and management?

​Yesterday’s methods of self-assertion are not necessarily effective in today’s fast-paced world.  This is the workshop to take for your work environment to foster open lines of communication and improve overall communication.

​In this workshop you will learn to:
  • demonstrate effective listening to ensure you are fully engaged
  • assess your comfort levels with assertion and how to manage your discomfort
  • use self-assertion techniques that soothe the speaker and convince the listener
Time Management

​So many of us spend our day running around but accomplish very little because we are not focused on the right things.  We spend so much time on unproductive activity that our quality of work or the results we produce often suffer. We constantly beat ourselves up because for some reason we can't seem to manage our time, when in reality, we need to be managing the events in our life that use our time.

​Time Management is a process of "self-management" or focus management on the things that are important as we strive toward accomplishment of our goals. Time Management is a discipline. It is the ability to manage the self; it is not about managing time. 

​This workshop will help you recognize what is important/not important as it relates to your overall goal and/or project.  Learn how to manage time wasters, which clog up our schedules and inhibit our progress.

​In this workshop you will learn to:
  • control distractions and interruptions which waste your time and break your flow
  • increase your effectiveness (avoid procrastination) and reduce stress
  • determine which things are most important, and which tasks you can "drop"
  • unlock time that is currently undervalued and apply it to your successes
