This 2-3 hour workshop (fits any length) accompanies the “Flourishing in the Face of Change” keynote. The workshop (intended for leadership teams/those leading change) teaches the science-backed EMC² change management model (Getting Mass Energy Behind Change). The acronym EMC² stands for the sequential phases leaders must spearhead for effective, energizing change:

Establish change as a conduit. This goes beyond simply making a case for change. This is also about positioning change as the necessary conduit to a better, compelling future state. Successful change is seen as a path, not a process. It’s about creating enthusiasm for the change.

Move employees from spectators → speculators. Unprodded, many employees will begrudgingly let change happen to them vs. getting involved to make change happen for them. You want employees so invested in the change that they’re energetically speculating on all the positives that could come from it.

Create new habits². With change comes new habits, and nothing is harder to form (thus the ² as it takes a doubling down of effort).

The workshop opens with discussion of The 7 Truths of Change–all of which inform the model. It then brings the powerful change-model to life with a “model-walkthrough”, discussion, multiple exercises, and a chance for the leadership team/leaders of change to assess their own readiness for change and to start applying the model right away to their specific scenario.

The leadership team/leaders of change will leave equipped with a powerful framework for leading through change along with a specific “checklist” of things they can do to effectively lead change each step of the way. The net result is change that defies the odds (51% of all change initiatives are deemed failures) and that even energizes the entire organization along the way.

This 45-minute to half-day workshop is designed to accompany/immediately follow the Keynote of the same name. In this workshop, participants engage in a series of exercises and are given a number of tools to help address and avoid each of the Anti-Muse traps.

This 45-minute workshop is designed to accompany/immediately follow the Keynote of the same name. In this workshop, attendees are introduced to The Innerview – an introspective set of questions designed to help the participant craft a legacy statement. After the questions are introduced, the attendee is given quiet, reflective time (the bulk of the workshop) to write responses to the questions. They’re then given the option to share their legacy statements with the group at the end of the workshop.

In this half to full-day workshop (can be tailored in length), participants learn the art & science of becoming a “once-in-a lifetime” coach to their employees.

Attendees will learn about The Coaching Mindset (how the best coaches in the world approach coaching) and how to have powerful Coaching Conversations (including how to structure them and how to pinpoint opportunities and excel at giving feedback – even to difficult employees). They’ll also learn how to remove the most common barriers to an employee’s personal growth.

Attendees will stay deeply engaged and learning through exercises, discussions, videos, music, story-telling, tools, sharing of experiences, and more.

Coaches will leave inspired, informed, and prepared to apply their new found, elevated coaching skill set to their existing coachee partnerships. They’ll also walk away with many powerful tools to use in their day to day coaching.

Results and relationships are both sure to soar.

This unique, day-long training (can be tailored in length) focuses on teaching leaders one of the most critical skills they can have – motivating employees to peak performance – in a manner that sustains.

Leaders are taught The 7 Markers of Meaning – specific conditions the leader can foster that create meaning in and at work (Work that matters, learning and personal growth, competency and self-esteem, autonomy, and an environment of caring/teamwork/authenticity feeling confidence in leadership and the mission, and cutting off corrosive behaviors).

Leaders then learn about The Footprints of Legacy – the manners by which social science teaches us we tend to leave a lasting impact behind, whether or not we realize it. If we are made aware of the “buckets” of ways in which we can leave footprints, then we can begin working to fill each bucket, even if just a little, every day.

The group then learns about The Footpath to Legacy-worthy Results – the specific steps one can take to maximize the fulfilling legacy left behind via meaningful results at work.

The training uses a combination of keynote, group discussion, individual contemplation, and killer exercises/tools to ingrain the content and keep the momentum going long afterwards.
