Listening for Success
Besides having segments, divisions, departments and areas in business today, we also have silos - almost totally separate groups of people who have to work together to make a company successful. Unfortunately, often goals and agendas don’t match, nor do the jargon and buzzwords. Here participants learn their style of communication, why they are successful, and what can make them more successful in all their two way communications. Listening and understanding others is part of that success.

Exceptional Customer Service - Brochure (PDF)

After defining a great customer experience, this course takes it to the next level by creating a "how-to" list of actions for each participant that will mean exceptional customer service each and every time. 25 participants 1 day

Effective Meetings
Meetings are costly, can be powerful, are sometimes a drain on productivity and, unfortunately, often a waste of a company’s most valuable resource - its people. In Effective Meetings participants discover the value of meetings, the cost of late starts, how to create agendas, when to send them, how to organize time, and how to get others to be part of the solution. (We recommend customizing this course for your needs. Add’l topics can include conference calls, handling difficult discussions, your preferred formats, etc.)
