Read Description

Most attempts at positive change fail because we stop at insight and don't build habits.  Sustained change towards a more positive mind requires laying down neural pathways to form new habits through consistent daily practice.

 

In this presentation you will discover the data based, science supported, yet simple description of how our brains operate and what causes us to react like we do.  You will learn about the 3 core mental muscles that we should develop to increase our mental fitness.  You will also be given the opportunity to complete an assessment that helps you understand when and how your brain sabotages you.

 

This is an interactive session that you will walk away from with knowledge, new skills, and tools to impact your daily life.

Keynote

Generational Dynamics

Key Takeaways:

  • Enhance your knowledge of each generational personality.  

  • Learn what causes each generation to have their own unique generational personality and how that impacts employee engagement, retention, relationships and leadership.

  • Learn how to communicate more effectively with each generation.

  • Gain knowledge around giving more effective feedback.

Read Description

Have you ever wondered why some people act like they do or say certain things or have certain view points?

Part of the reason could be due to the generation that they belong to.  Our workplace is changing - each generation gets credit for their piece but also for the clash this brings.  With potentially 5 generations working together change can be hard and communication even harder. 

Nancy Gunter has led groups all over the United States in this educational and entertaining look at each generation.  She will give your team a fresh perspective of each generation explaining the reasons, finding humor with each generational personality and ultimately changing the way your team members view those from a different generation.  Participants will leave the session with more insight into what causes each generation to think differently, why this might create problems, and suggestions on how to work differently to create a more cohesive work environment.
