More Details about the Workshop:

The CORNERSTONE of Great Leadership

...is the HONESTY of your conversations which will ultimately build your integrity and trust.

Heart, Head and Humor is a unique skill building workshop that will help you grow with support in a non-threatening environment through hand's on practice with role players playing the part of the employee.  You will...

  • Learn our Polaris process for preparing for difficult conversations. 
  • Build your confidence as you experience the power of PRACTICE...doing the hard work of learning soft skills through real life similuations.
"It takes two to speak the truth - one to speak, and the other to listen." Henry David Thoreau
 

Why This is Important!
  • The employee may take your feedback to heart and  overcome their issues, and you save the cost of replacing them. 
  • The unacceptable behavior may not develop into a career limiting blind spot.  You can literally safeguard the employee's potential and SAVE their CAREER!
  • Your integrity as a leader is strengthened because you are seen as doing the right thing.
  • All  team members perform better because you “set the bar” for expectations for both performance and acceptable behavior.


Past participants have told us it’s a formula that works:

“I loved the role plays...not because I was any good but because I learned the most from practicing."

"The art of listening is so important!  It truly is a key to personal growth in leadership.”

“It’s easy to NOT have difficult conversations, but we become better people by having them.”

I think this workshop was very useful...especially   learning the process of Polaris, and understanding how we “jump to conclusions.”

“I would especially recommend this workshop because of the cross organizational focus...no pressure from your peers.”

“I was very apprehensive about the role playing, but it turned out to be the best part of the workshop.  I can’t believe I am telling you to do more of them!  Great “hands on” learning!

        Actors Add Value to Your Learning Experience:

Michael Wollner and Duane Sharp, our professional role players are highly skilled and able to make your practice conversations look, feel and sound like the difficult conversations that you face in real life.

Bio's of Michael and Duane are in Consultant Network.
