In-person & Virtual Training Programs That Inspire & Motivate Your Audience

Presentation 1

Leading at Every Level

Many times, professionals find themselves in positions of leadership without official titles or authority. You may have responsibility for instituting policies, creating initiatives, and adhering to budgets, yet you may not have the authority to make decisions, increase resources, or define the scope of projects. How can professionals create change when they have limited authority? When in that situation, how can you create change with limited authority? In this interactive program, which can be delivered as a keynote or break-out session, Karen Snyder will facilitate exercises illustrating to participants how to succeed by enlarging their sphere of influence, motivating and inspiring others, and finding empowerment through learning “what leaders do” that is effective.

 

Karen’s presentation delivers real life lessons for how to:

  • Avoid things that cripple a culture of conscious change.
  • Develop evolutionary awareness in your business.
  • Create a culture in your business that drives change.
  • Hire and inspire team members to be evolutionary.

Presentation 3

Channeling Conflict to Create Highly-Functioning Organizations

Although we dream of complete peace and harmony among nations, departments, and our own families, confl­ict always exists. And since confl­ict will always exist, do you have the skills to recognize and work through it? Do you see confl­ict as an asset or as a liability? Do you avoid confl­ict, shut it down, or make it escalate?

 

In this program, employees will deepen their skills for working through conflict and for improving dynamics at work by channeling disagreement towards positive outcomes by:

  • Recognizing that conflict can be constructive, and is not always destructive
  • Understanding the guidelines of when and how to escalate conflict
  • Modeling effective conflict resolution techniques
  • Engaging leaders in their organizations to channel conflict productively

Earning a Seat at the Table

“A seat at the table” can mean an actual seat at a table where strategic business discussions take place. “A seat at the table” can also mean the ability to influence those decisions. The path to earning “a seat at the table” will be unique for each individual, but there are similarities in the skill sets of those who make it to the top positions in organizations. This session will support each individual as they journey to find their place. After participating in this workshop, participants will be able to increase your visibility by getting your work noticed and recognized, cultivate advocates within your organization, expand your sphere of influence, and speak “C-Suite” in order to shape the culture of your organization.
