. CONSULTING AND COACHING GREAT08 Improvement Process The ASAP Process: Ask, Synthesize, Analyze, Plan LD3: Leadership Development Series Breakthrough Coaching for Improvement Teams Now YOU can lead one of our most requested workshops . By popular demand, one of our most requested training programs is now available through license agreement. You can add it to your line-up of courses -- and facilitate it yourself or use staff to lead the sessions. Perhaps your organization has an in-house trainer or facilitator, or a team of people who fill this role. Perhaps your own job involves training and development. Whatever the case, you can now bring this popular session in-house. ......Building a Great Workplace: Ideas, Tools & You! The workshop is all about creating a workplace that engages people, that makes the most of their brainpower and emotional intelligence, that makes improvement everyone's business. It's designed for a wide audience: managers, supervisors, and front-line associates. Based on adult-learning principles, it includes meaningful activities, focused dialogue, opportunities for reflection, and an end-of-session emphasis on developing individual and team action steps. The full package gives you all session materials (in ready-to-print PDF format), dynamic visuals (PowerPoint), a train-the-trainer briefing, detailed trainer notes (with a comprehensive agenda and instructions on how to facilitate the activities), and ongoing support. You get everything you need to lead the session at your organization in two-hour, four-hour, or full-day formats -- for groups numbering from 10 to 50 people. You even get informational materials for promoting the session throughout the workplace. To ensure that your in-house trainers are well-prepared, Tom Terez would be on-site to lead the first session for a group of about 30 people -- so the trainers could experience the workshop first hand. This would be followed by a train-the-trainer segment. In terms of content, the workshops gives people the knowledge and skills they need to be active participants in building a better workplace and strengthening their workplace culture. The session provides insights into key factors that strengthen every great workplace: purpose, acknowledgment, respect, ownership, balance, and so on. The aim is to have people go beyond their own preconceptions and gain a fuller understanding. Through a quick-take assessment, participants use these factors to take a new look at their work environment -- and pinpoint the greatest strengths and biggest improvement opportunities. Teamwork is a practice of choice in all great organizations, but it's always a challenge. The workshop looks at emotional intelligence, the importance of dialogue, and the powerful concepts of "bidding for connection" and "turning toward." Change, trust, and communication are linked in all sorts of ways. Participants put these concepts to work -- and see first hand how they can have a positive impact. There's an emphasis on action. People leave the session with their own tailored action steps that they can put to work right away. Veteran trainers and facilitators will find plenty of opportunities to weave in their own examples and expertise -- while people who are new to training will appreciate the clear guidance and easy-to-follow design. .
