speak different languages! In this lively, entertaining presentation,

HOW TO MANAGE YOUR BOSS AND OTHER
IMPORTANT PEOPLE IN YOUR LIFE
Most people don't realize that management is a two-way street -- the
same techniques that we use to "manage down" can be used to "manage
up." People are people, whether they are bosses or employees, co-workers,
friends or family members -- the same principles apply to managing our
relationships with them. This entertaining presentation will include
specific tips on motivation, communication, influence skills, and how
to get other people to do what you want -- both in your professional
life and your personal life.
PEACOCKS AND PENGUINS:
Tapping Into the Creativity of Diversity
BJ Gallagher has a unique approach to developing employees and building
flexible, innovative organizations -- an approach that includes humor,
creativity, and metaphor, combined with practical, common sense solutions
to what may seem like "dilemmas of diversity." Her experience in her
consulting work has helped her clients maximize the productivity of
diverse employees, increase innovation and new ideas, enhance team effectiveness,
and build customer loyalty. This lively, interactive session will provide
participants with the opportunity to assess their own organization's
management practices, and to explore ways to tap into the creativity
of employee diversity and leverage it as an organizational asset.
THE BLAME GAME:
BUILDING A CULTURE OF PERSONAL ACCOUNTABILITY IN YOUR ORGANIZATION
Widespread "victim" thinking, whining, finger-pointing, helplessness,
and blaming are behaviors that plague many organizations today. Employees
and management alike often seem caught up in a vicious cycle of "The
Blame Game." This stimulating, interactive session addresses the personal
and organizational costs of "victim" thinking and behavior, and demonstrates
that the solution is a dynamic shift to personal accountability. Participants
will learn how to help both individuals and organizations transform
blaming into problem-solving, "victim" thinking into "ownership" thinking,
and "poor me" into "personal accountability" resulting in empowered,
proactive, productive people.
