Dare to Matter

The keys to maximizing contributions, igniting inspiration, and boosting culture, morale and performance exist not just within a burning desire to achieve individual and organizational success and happiness. Rather, it is evident when we willingly choose to pursue a challenging, unpredictable, and unapologetic life of significance.

Build for Legacy

Look, any team can be great once. But dynasties aren’t built on fluke excellence or isolated great performances. The best teams are those that are able to sustain high levels of performance year after year. Even in today’s unpredictable and ever-changing business environment, organizations can still follow a framework that gives them the best opportunity to help good teams become great, and great teams become dynasties.

Significant Communication in Calm and Chaos 

Our current environment has twisted, tossed, and turned upside-down our normal way of operating. Colleagues have become faces we see on a screen or a voice on the phone. Water cooler conversations now take place in our home kitchens. Family vacations involve going camping in your living room. In a time of crisis and chaos, one thing is certain: being an effective communicator is a requirement for not only addressing the immediate obstacles but also to position your future for success. The biggest fallacy regarding communication is that 100% of it exists within body language, tone, and words. This simply isn’t true. Because much of our communication is expressed beneath the surface, it’s important to recognize how we are influenced by what we see, hear, and say, and understand how we (and others) interpret that information. Our beliefs, experiences, judgments, and expectations heavily influence the way we communicate, yet those are aspects not frequently explored in our communication effectiveness. This is not your ordinary presentation on communication. It’s a fun, challenging, and insightful look at how to become a more effective communicator in every aspect of your life.

Conversations That Matter

Have you ever wished you could get your manager to do something but felt powerless because you don’t have positional authority? Have you struggled with how to get a micro-manager to stop meddling in every move you make? Are you interested in building a team based on trust, accountability, and responsibility? Do you want to reduce the amount of time spent dealing with drama and conflict between your employees? Do you want to get your people to perform at high levels on a consistent basis? Very simply, do you want to become more effective in how you manage up and how you manage down?

You can achieve all of this by having very specific, strategic, and simple conversations that are revealed in this presentation. You will not only learn WHY these conversations are so effective but you’ll also learn exactly HOW you need to phrase your conversations to maximize your results. 

As a manager, what you say and how you say it matters. Your conversations matter. It’s time to learn the secrets to have your conversations matter more.
