The Practice of Personal Accountability

No organization – or individual – can achieve goals, compete in the marketplace, fulfill a vision, or develop people and teams without personal accountability.

Understand your colleagues’ challenges and frustrations, and become part of the solution.

Emotional Intelligence – Increasing your EQ, not your IQ

Being excellent in your work requires knowing, understanding and managing emotions. Are you a victim of emotional hijackings that harm your effectiveness and even derail your career? Can you read a room by applying knowledge, awareness and restraint, and bring a new level of effectiveness to your work and relationships? Increase your Emotional Quotient (EQ) and you are well on the way to achieving more than you can with just your IQ. The negative impact of emotional illiteracy is inestimable.

Audience: Workers of all levels. Leaders, send staff that may negatively impact others in your organization.

“We asked you for some very specific areas to be addressed and you hit them all and then some. We couldn’t have asked for more at our state-wide retreat. You do your investigative work about an organization so that what you do and say is tailored to your audience. You heard us out and got a sense for what we needed to deliver to the group in our organization. It was clear that you really wanted to understand and apply this information at our retreat. We needed someone to help communicate some difficult things to a group of leaders that will get the point across. You hit a home run with that information. You gave us everything we asked for. We appreciate the hard work that you put into preparing to work with our groups.”
