  • Who's Driving You Out of Your Mind?

    • The "Warren" Principles for Interpersonal Success or "How to get better results with almost ANYONE".

    • Dramatically improve your ability to communicate in difficult situations and with difficult people.

    • Tools to help you get the results you need in any situation.  Interactive, FUN, funny.  You will be laughing and enjoying the incredible process of understanding, for the first time, both YOURSELF AND your most difficult people.  Gives you the amazing ability to see OPTIONS for creating the outcomes YOU WANT, whether THEY ever change or NOT!  This is, BY FAR, the MOST REQUESTED SEMINAR I DO, and it is ALWAYS my recommendation for my first topic with your group. 

    • Fantastic for team building, dealing with difficult people, customer service, interpersonal skills, and more.  COMES HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!  I can give you multiple referrals for this topic!  You won't be disappointed!  The most interactive version, and the one that gives your people the most time to understand and interact with the material and each other, is, of course, the full day version.  Minimum time is 3 hrs. (I can also introduce this topic in a hilariously enjoyable 45 minute keynote address)

    • Adaptable to times ranging from 3-6 hours.

    •   Warren  Behavioral Styles  Dusting

    • Who is your most difficult person? So many times we let our most difficult person get the best of us, which leaves the worst of us to go around to those we really care about! Here we take back our own attitude, feelings, and responsibility for our actions. This particular day is a laughter filled romp through some of our most difficult moments, as we truly get excited about not letting our "Warrens" drive us to distraction any more. It is also an incredible journey of discovery about why we do what we do, and why our difficult person acts the way they act. I can't tell you how many people RAVE about this class, and want everyone they work with to take it, too.

    • "I've never laughed like that at a seminar, while learning so much about myself and my co-workers! That's the best day I've ever spent learning. Everybody needs this!" Jan C., Denver, CO, 10/12/01

  • Where Am I going?

    • Rediscovering Life's Roadmaps

    • How to dramatically improve your personal effectiveness in achieving goals and balancing priorities. Provides tools to help you set and achieve personal and professional goals, make critical decisions about time, and invest in the things that are most important.

    • Adaptable to times ranging from 3-5 hours.

    •   Roadmaps  Destination  On Goals  The Yellowjackets

    • Where are you headed? How are you planning to get there? This course discusses the value of road maps for our lives. The premise: "If you want to be happy with the house you've built, you've got to be in charge during construction." With a reminder of several key Covey principles, this is a POWERFUL day to re-connect with what drives us, and what keeps us from reaching our full potential. Also discusses basic time management techniques such as avoiding interruptions, overcoming procrastination, planning for more effective meetings, organizing paperwork, and much more. 

    • "Who knew a "time & life management" seminar could be such a scream! That's the most fun I've spent anywhere! You ought to be a stand-up comedian! And the stuff about "balance" has given me so much hope to get some things straightened out in my life. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you..." Mary S., Denver, CO, 10/12/01

  • The Journey Toward Exceptional Customer Service

    • Here, we discuss the fact that exceptional customer service is not a place you get to. Rather, it is a journey you're always on. We discover the natural foundation from which we can build toward it, and uncover your own built-in ability to identify and deliver a higher level of service. We'll also identify the specific challenges your people are facing in delivering exceptional service and address those specific issues, giving opportunities during the seminar for practice. This topic, like all of my seminars, lends itself to MUCH spontaneous laughter during the day. A day to be remembered and used for a lifetime.)

  • Becoming a Captivating Speaker

    • And getting the results you want...

    • Have you listened to a speaker when all you could think about was getting OUT? And have you ever heard a speaker where you were riveted to their message, and at the end, you couldn't believe the time flew by so fast, and you wanted more? We can show you how to create the incredible difference!  

    • We are presenting every day. It has been said the greatest fear in the world is speaking before a group. We identify the fears and develop specific tools for channeling them into super success as a presenter. Development of a plan for your presentation is discussed as a pre-requisite for success in presenting. We also discuss the all important development of rapport with your audience. This particular topic can be a one day seminar, with short, impromptu presentations given by the participants. It can also be a multi-day seminar, with time included for planned presentations by participants, to be critiqued using a phenomenally effective feedback method. Using your equipment, each presentation can also be videotaped for review and further learning. One of the most effective, appreciated, and requested seminars I do.

  • Building Power Teams

    • An Interactive and FUN Team-Building Day (So much that we need to accomplish cannot be done without the benefit of teamwork. Yet teamwork does not develop on its own. We must plan for it, and provide opportunities for it to develop. During this day we'll actually DO teamwork, and watch the learning happen automatically. This extremely interactive and fun day is filled with incredible "AHA!" moments, as participants discover for themselves the awesome power of the team. We'll include ways to address specific team challenges your team is facing.)
