This session will provide an "operator's manual" for the mind. Through innovative concepts and techniques, you will learn to achieve higher levels of creativity, clearer thoughts, increased concentration, and more concise communications. We will examine how Mind Mapping can lead to improvements in your mental abilities.

To help participants increase their communication flexibility, this session will focus on the three keys to unlocking successful communication. First, we will consider what motivates people to behave the way they do. Second, we will explore the communication skills we use unconsciously with people who get along with us, and then learn how to consciously use those skills with difficult people. Finally, we will see how to deal with 10 types of behavior that make certain people unbearable to work with.

The purpose of this session is to provide managers from all departments with an understanding of financial reports, financial performance measures (ratio analysis), financial markets (risk and return measures) and the integration of finance and operations. The session is intended for middle and senior managers interested in how financial management can impact their decisions and opportunities. The session assumes no prior background in finance.

This seminar looks at how and why some managers step forward to achieve the outcomes we want while preventing those we don't want. Participants will examine six stages of personal power and learn how exemplary leaders develop and use these stages during their careers. Participants will quickly be able to apply this model to achieve more effective personal and organizational results.

Effective leaders empower people in a way that prompts them to take ownership for their role and responsibility for their actions. Leaders also know what they need to do to get people to respond to them. What do successful organizations do to create in their people the ability to take ownership? How do leaders move from managing to leading so that people will follow? This session will not only give an insight into what successful organizations do, but will give practical tips on how to achieve it.

This workshop will open you up to possibilities you never dreamed off and give you the tools you need to begin your transformation. Your internal changes will be rapidly reflected in the world outside and lead you to an immeasurably more fulfilling life. Bring an open mind to this workshop because you will be confronted with unconventional ideas. The exercises you will learn will produce powerful results if you work with them conscientiously after the workshop.
