Coaching for Growth & Performance

Gallup found that whereas employees used to expect to work for a boss, these days they' are looking for a coach. Your employees want professional and personal development, immediately and in the future.

Moreover, when employees see how their goals are linked to the company's goals they are 3.5x more likely to be engaged.

Learn how to grow and coach your team by "setting and getting" value-aligned goals! This program is geared at training your coaching crew! With peer-based coaching you can "grow" the team from within while deepening relationships.

Me on Purpose!

Gallup research finds that employees want to work for a purpose, not just a paycheck. They work not just because it's their job, but because their career is an integral part of their life.

Help your employees connect with your sense of purpose and reap the health benefits of living a purpose-driven, fulfilled life! This is a hands-on engaging and enlightening workshop.

Victorious Me!

Self-Definition, Vision, & Triumph!

In the workplace, a defensive mindset, defeatist mindset or victim mindset becomes the rotten apple the spoils the whole batch.

In this witty presentation I make the case that setting a strategic mindset is not enough -- all of our tactics need to be aligned with that vision!

Master Coach (1-on-1 and Groups)

I frame most of my coaching around Positive Psychology interventions, connection to core values and purpose, physical health (with emphasis on brain health), & mindset. I adapt my approach based on where you are at and where you see yourself in the future. I hold about a half dozen WELCOA (Wellness Council of America) certifications, as well as Transformation Academy certifications (Life Purpose Coach, Goal Achievement Coach, Group Coach, & Employee Performance Coach). I am also a Brain Health Coach (certified by the prestigious Amen University). I weave the art and science of coaching into my workshops and courses.

Goal Setting and Getting

What does your next "better" look like?

Speaker

Perfect is not an option, so I like to focus on educating and inspiring people to get "better and betterer" across the 8 dimensions of wellness. My fave speaking topics these days include: mindset and micro-behavior changes, stress reduction, workplace wellness, Positive Psychology, and alignment of strategy and execution to ensure success across the breadth of wellness goals. I also help solve common company pain points, take on continual improvement initiatives, establish growth-oriented relationships, set guiding principles, and "baking in" the key aspects that lead to cohesive, high-performing teams that deliver value to their org, their clients, their communities, their planet, and themselves.

Holistic View of Wellness

There are different ways to slice up the wellness pie. These days I like looking at 8 slices (the model used by the NIH) because it gives us the most talking points, rather than lumping these together. (Just like helicopters have the ability to get a great holistic view from on high, but also can land on clear and specific targets, we will look at the whole AND the parts.) These dimensions connect with and energize each other, both within an individual and AMONG individuals.

Agile + Aligned Approach

Instead of focusing on a marathon, I like to look at sprints. In the software world they use an Agile approach to launch, learn quick, and iterate. So why don't we do the same as we launch "Me 2.0" and beyond? As for the "aligned" part of this approach, before acting, we want to be sure our actions are aligned -- be that with our core values & purpose, or aligned with our present mini-goals or overarching goals. When considering "work life" all parties should be committed to a growth-oriented relationship. That is to say, the org supports its employees in becoming the next best versions of themselves, and the employees support the org in becoming its next best self via continual improvement.
