When people ask me, “What do you do?” I respond, “What do you need done?” After the initial chuckle I then ask, “What are your organization’s two biggest problems?” The problems are usually to make the cash register ring…louder – a marketing issue – and some sort of people problem – a training issue. Thus, I do marketing and training. Two of my goals are to make you look good to both your boss and your people and to exceed your training expectations for a maximum return on the investment of your training dollar$. I’m a high-energy, dynamic trainer and keynote speaker who uses humor to make learning fun. I bring over 25 years of experience to your training room with a track record of satisfied customers. My mission is to treat each client as if they were my “ONLY” client. Now, here is where I differ: As a behavioral psychologist, I suggest that you provide me with two lists: 1.The skills and behaviors YOU would like the participants to come away as a result of training 2.The skills and behaviors the PARTICIPANTS themselves would like to learn I then deliver a custom value-added training program meeting the needs of BOTH groups. While training programs come across your desk constantly, take a minute to review my list of “meat and potatoes” seminars and keynote addresses. Many are the hot, new, and fresh topics while others address the basics. I guarantee they will produce immediate results and positive behavior change, increase productivity, and contribute to your organization’s goals.
