It’s become clear that People Skills are key to their success.
My customized workshops focus on enhancing the relevant People Skills for the people in your business. All training is designed using adult learning principles--mixing mini-lectures for knowledge building, interactive exercises for skill practice and case studies and/or assessments to deepen the understanding. The workshops offer multiple methods for participants to learn, explore and practice new behaviors in a safe, supportive environment. Individual Action Plans are developed to bridge the classroom learning to the workplace. Group Coaching is available to cement the desired behaviors and skills back at work.
