Purposeful Communication

Picture
Communication is one of the most important keys to success in the workplace and in personal relationships. What message are you really sending? In this workshop, you’ll discover ways to communicate more effectively and con-fidently in any situation. We will address verbal as well as non-verbal (body language) communications. 
Tailor your message to achieve agreement. Maintain composure and control in the heat of the moment by handling conflict positively and with less stress. Communicate clearly and directly. Present your ideas so they get ac-cepted and acted on. Learn the difference between talking and being heard. Learn all the skills required to be an active listener.

Generational Differences

Picture
Understanding the values of the four different generations working together can transform motivation, teambuilding, communication, and trust.
Learn how understanding these differences make a difference in how we
communicate and build stronger relationships in our workplace. 

We will explore the four generations: 1) The silent generation, 2) Baby Boomers, 3) Generation X and 4) Generation Y 

You’ll learn the differences between generations and how to turn those dif-ferences into opportunities. Discover why trouble spots arise in the work-place, how your role in understanding generational differences can improve your organization and understand patients better. Best of all, you’ll be able to teach others how to bridge the generation gap!

A winner is someone who recognizes his talents, works his tail off to develop them into skills and uses these skills to accomplish his goals. - Larry Bird

Comment from a recent seminar

From a student's facebook posting: Had a great time at Michael Kline's "Shoestring Marketing" seminar this morning at The Met. Came back to the office and was promptly teased by coworkers who had placed bets on the fact that I'd come back pumped up and with my brain buzzing. They were right. :) If you get a chance, attend one of Michael's seminars. You'll be SO glad you did.
