Talent Density: The 5 Keys to Growing Your People So You Can Grow Your Profit

If your company growth is not where you want it to be, it might be the wrong strategy, ineffective sales process, low levels of service or poor marketing. Maybe, but we don’t know for sure. What we do know for sure is that if you focus on making your people better, your company will be better.

Would you enthusiastically rehire everyone one your team? An honest answer to this powerful question will have a remarkable impact on your business.

Your ability to continuously assess, coach and develop your team’s talent is a requirement to scaling a sustainable business. That includes making the difficult decisions about who fits your vision of the future and where you need to make tough decisions to cut the cord.

In this session, your audience will learn:

• A specific process to assess your organization's talent and continue to "raise the bar"

Breakthrough Leadership Team Workshop

This program is great for business owners and members of any leadership team.
If you want to create a growing, profitable business that positively impacts the lives of employees and clients, it'll take more than leveling up your capacity and capabilities as leader.

Or, as Mike Goldman calls it: a breakthrough leadership team.

In this session, your audience will learn how to:

• Structure their team now and plan for future growth

• Get the right people on the team and the wrong people off the team

• Craft the right culture

• Develop their talent

• Execute with discipline and accountability

Overcoming Overwhelm: Move From Disempowered to Empowered With a Focus Switch

The biggest obstacle in the way of our personal and professional success and fulfillment is between our ears. When times are challenging, our emotions go on autopilot and we create disempowering actions and habits. Simply shifting our focus will change our reality and our results.

These days the key to gaining a strategic advantage is not about a new product or service. Improving employee engagement is not about an employee of the month program.

The key to both of those things is having the right mindset

In this session, your audience will:

• Learn why changing their focus can change their lives

• Understand the difference between a disempowering focus versus and empowering one

• Discover powerful questions that will help them shift their focus on command

• Turn fear, frustration, overwhelm, disappointment and anger into strength, excitement, control, fulfillment and understanding

• Adopt a daily recipe for creating the right mindset every day.
