What will SuccessCatalyst.com do for you?

We provide People Connections. People are your organization’s most valuable asset. I show how to maximize your human assets by teaching executives/managers how to improve their people connections and communication skills. This allows them to more comfortably and effectively interact with others both professionally and personally.

My experience is most people are promoted to management positions because they excel at a task or process. Usually, no one teaches them how to productively interact with people. Through self-assessment and analysis I guide people to determine and appreciate their strengths and to value their and everyone else’s "you"niqueness. I help them to realize people are not really difficult, only different. This leads to respecting and honoring those with differing behaviors and points of view. The result is a healthy bottom-line for your company.

 


The most common reason people are unhappy at work is because they do not like their bosses. Most bosses like to be liked, yet do not know how. They were happy doing what the task or technical process they did before they were promoted. They never learned how to lead people. Now, the boss is unhappy, the employees are unhappy and, ignored, eventually the company becomes an unhappy place to be. I work with managers one-on-one or in small groups to teach them people skills. When a person is doing what they truly enjoy, enthusiasm, passion and joy are released. This leads to more fun, less stress and a sense of purpose and fulfillment.


We also help executives develop Balance in their lives and businesses - Many executives seem to have it all, but are not happy. They have lost their energy, enthusiasm and passion. I guide executives to create balance in their lives and businesses. Then, as a role model, they give their employees permission and encouragement to create balance in their lives. The result is the ability to attract high achievers and retain the best employees

 

 How do you do that?

Presentations – My presentations focus in three areas: People connections, life balance and attitude adjustment.

Within People Connections are: leadership development, team building, understanding and accepting the differences in people, recognizing and rewarding employees and communication skills.

Life Balance programs include understanding why and how stress kills and how not to be a victim, how to not go home from work exhausted and how to have it all and still have time to enJOY life.

Attitude Adjustment sessions include why attitude is so important and how to change yours if necessary, managing transitions and learning to change your life by changing the way you think.

Coaching - Most people are committed to and enthusiastic about implementing the knowledge and skills they learn in a training/speech. Unfortunately, once they return to work, other things take priority and little changes. My programs include one-on-one coaching sessions for individuals and small groups to ensure implementation takes place. Coaching provides the guidance, support and encouragement necessary to achieve goals and dreams more quickly.

Tools -I provide tools and products to reinforce and remind people of what they learned

 I provide three things when I work with a client:

Clarity – A key element to our success when working together is my one-on-one interviews with your employees. Once a client and I have agreed to work together I personally talk with several of the people that will be involved in the training/coaching. These interviews with you and your employees allow me to look beyond and underneath the symptoms to provide clarity of the real problem(s).

Combining my unique combination of analysis and creativity I then create a customized program specifically designed to provide the knowledge, skills and inspiration necessary for you and your employees to achieve your vision and goals.

Knowledge – Each program I do is laden with substance and solutions developed during my 25 years as an educator, my 20 plus years as a manager and a lifetime of constant learning. Knowledge is the foundation to growth and development of new skills.

Skills - my programs are all very interactive, experiential and fun! My experience is adults learn by being involved and doing, not just sitting and listening. During my presentations we not only learn how to develop new skills, we practice them. Usually the first time we do something is the hardest. We eliminate that fear by practicing within the safety of the seminar environment.

 

When I work with someone, I really zero in on four things:

Awareness – My goal in my work is to move people from living and working unconsciously to working and living with purpose and focus. My belief is awareness is the first step in a growth process. Until an individual/organization is conscious of what is and is not working and what the possibilities are, they see no reason to change.

Possibility Thinking –Everything is first created in our minds. If you want different results, you need to think in novel, original ways. In today’s knowledge-based environment, accelerating change and increased competition for business and employees we need cutting edge skills.

I don’t want my clients to only think outside the box. I want them to create new boxes, be original and unique. My presentations and coaching provide the knowledge and skills to create ideas that make money, solve problems, surpass your competition and put passion and enthusiasm in your life.

Enthusiasm – I push people out of their warm, fuzzy comfort zones and move them to possibility thinking. My goal is to develop an "I/We can do this attitude" in every person/organization that I work with, a belief in self and your ability to achieve anything you can imagine. This leads to joy in the workplace, improved team spirit and increased output. All of this leads to a healthy bottom line.

Accountability – If we do not create a commitment and plan of action for implementing what we learn, change and growth rarely takes place. I guarantee success by including a plan each participant creates, commits to and is responsible for based on what they learned. An important aspect of this is I work with you to guide participants toward the vision and results you want
