Management Mastery

Managers are responsible for people, processes, performance, and profit. To accomplish goals to achieve success, a Manager must know how to manage people. They need to know how to help individuals and groups increase productivity, while maintaining good work relationships Our workshops show Managers how to achieve accountability, teamwork, ownership, and self-motivation, and reduce deterrents from quality outcomes.

True Teambuilding

Do your company employees work as a cohesive team? Are they trusted collaborators? Are they committed to your company’s success? With true teambuilding, employees learn to perform well together. They form collegial relationships that support them through projects, reorganizations, mergers, problem solving, constant change, and the multitude of expectations that meet you in today’s workplace. The results are reduced development time, decreased costs, enhanced performance quality, ability to adapt to change, and higher customer satisfaction.

Change Management

The process of change can be disruptive when knowledge of the change and transition processes, as they affect employees, are unknown or underutilized. This workshop provides understanding of how change impacts people and shows leaders how to make decisions that help their staff through the changes. It also prepares workers to deal with the impending or ongoing changes so they can be proactive leaders and contributors, rather than resistors.

Conflict Resolution

Conflict often occurs due to lack of clear communication, misinformation, misperceptions, competition for resources, differing values and stressful changes in the workplace. Discord between people, departments, and internal and external work relationships occur daily. Many of these situations can be avoided. Often, problems are ignored until they become a crisis. Using appropriate skills to handle conflict when it occurs helps avoid stress, illness and nonproductive behavior. Using preventive conflict management skills increases productivity and satisfaction.

Manage Employees

All levels of management are responsible for an employee motivation program that manages people, processes, performance, and employee retention. This course provides an overview of the wide variety of skills required to be an effective manager, and a systematic process and language that is used to better understand and improve our own behavior and the behavior of the people we work with. You will learn the behavioral cues that engender productivity and commitment to one’s job. This interactive and lively course also provides tools to use in teambuilding, problem-solving, conflict resolution, communication, motivation, and performance improvement.

Practice Areas

Organization Development

We work with organizations to become a culture of beliefs, attitudes, values, and structure that can better adapt to new technologies, markets, and challenges. As change agents we are a catalyst that helps goals and vision meet and work together along the road to achievement. Working collaboratively with all levels of the organization, our efforts help increase and sustain the organization’s effectiveness and results.

Executive Coaching

Coaching allows executives to work privately and individually on adding specific leadership competencies to their repertoire. A coach helps executives in assessment, planning and implementation to become a highly skilled and effective leaders, while becoming a good role model for behaviors and actions they expect from their employees.

Managing Change

Change is a constant companion in the workplace. When a company is growing, downsizing, outsourcing, moving, or redesigning its services, change is the key initiator of employee fear, discomfort, confusion, and sense of loss. The result: less efficiency, productivity and service. We work with the planners of change as well as those impacted to smooth the transitions by creating proactive and positive partners in the change process.

Management Retreats

Away from daily work and concerns, retreats allow managers to focus on resolving issues, and plan for the future. The management team also uses a retreat as a venue to gather and reconnect, reassess, and recommit to supporting one another throughout the constant changes that face today's work environments.

Employee Development

Companies rely on the talents, skills and productivity of their employees. That is why it is essential that employees are trained in various self-development and work relationship skills that support them in doing their best work. When employees are successful so are their managers.
