Featured Workshops
"Elevate Impact Via Your Team's Story"
Audience: Professionals of all levels
Time Commitment: 1.5 hour introductory session to full day workshop
We all have unique stories, and teams are no different. They are made up of individuals, after all. Through facilitated discussion, the Professional Strengths, Values & Story Survey (SVSS), and the Narrative Intelligence framework, participants will uncover and validate their primary stories (based on 12 classic story archetypes), and accompanying cast of characters.
Through story sharing, team members will learn more about what makes each individual tick - their strengths, values and motivations. Based on the collective archetypes of the team, participants will create a team story narrative focused on achieving successful outcomes by allocating the group's talents and maximizing the contributions of each individual.
"Networking for Career & Business Success"
Audience: Professionals of all levels
Time Commitment: 1.5 hour introductory session to half day workshop
Does the thought of networking make you feel, I don’t know, kind of “icky”? Do you wait until you really need something, like a new job, to begin networking? If so, you’re not alone, and this workshop is definitely for you!
Networking can be fun, especially when you realize that it’s about not just receiving but giving, as well. Sustainable, fruitful networking is an ongoing process made up of connections that are built on trust, over time.
The question then becomes: where should you network?There are hundreds of opportunities; how do you know which are best for you?And what do you do once you’ve made new connections?
In this highly-interactive workshop, you'll learn the important skills of how to meet new people in a professional setting, how to answer the question, “What do you do?” in an interesting and compelling way, and how to nurture and grow your professional network.
“Uncovering and Communicating the Brand Called You!”
Audience: Professionals of all levels
Time Commitment: 1.5 hour introductory session to half day workshop
Did you know that you have your own brand?
Think about the world’s strongest brands. They are consistent, visible, wildly successful, and people pay a premium for these brands.
Not unlike famous brands like Coca-Cola and Starbucks, your personal brand is made up of your reputation, including your strengths, values, passions, and aspirations. Your personal brand is what differentiates you from your peers, and makes you more marketable as an entrepreneur, job seeker, and more outstanding as an employee.
Personal branding is not about creating a fancy logo or image. It is about being authentic to yourself, understanding your value, and communicating and demonstrating that value in order to optimize and achieve your goals.
In this interactive workshop, you will uncover the attributes and qualities that make you unique. You will then create a plan to communicate your brand with confidence.

What to Expect When Working Together
Prior to each presentation, workshop, or training, I consult with you so that the topic and/or event is customized to meet the specific needs of your group or organization. During the presentation, I offer an engaging and interactive speaking style that encourages audience participation and involvement. And after the event, you can be assured that the participants will have the tools they need to implement the learning that they’ve just received.
