Let's T.A.L.K.™ Navigating Difficult Workplace Discussions
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Tackling difficult conversations is hard for just about everyone… especially when it comes to the trickier workplace issues that seem to pop up when you least expect it. Let's T.A.L.K.™ Navigating Difficult Workplace Discussions is designed to assist managers and supervisors in dealing with difficult workplace situations. The program provides several difficult scenarios that managers may face when dealing with employees and each scenario utilizes an easy-to- use, four-step process for working through the employee situation.
Leadership Myths™
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Leadership is important to your company because it causes managers to make an emotional commitment to their jobs, not just a financial or intellectual commitment. When your job becomes a source of personal value fulfillment for you, you’re going to protect that source by making your company successful. But that’s not why you should be a leader. As a manager your most important responsibility is to your company. As a leader your most important responsibility is to yourself. This is the single most supportive corporate action you can take. That’s why people become leaders, to fulfill their personal values. After all it’s not easy being a leader!
Maximized Leadership™ The Power Of Positivity
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
This exciting new program is designed to teach people how to improve their relationships at work in order to become more productive and to achieve better results. We have to rely on and work with others in order to be productive and achieve results. The problem is that many work environments are not conducive to positive relationships. Instead, they are focused on the mistake, leading us to inadvertently reinforcing what we don’t want to happen - the negative behavior. This program shows learners how to improve workplace relationships and productivity by using the Positivity Approach.

I Wish My Manager Would Just...™
The powerful new program features employees speaking out about what their managers could do to help them be successful. It provides a fantastic look into what employees are really thinking about when it comes to their manager/supervisor relationship. It might not always easy to hear, but there's value in simply listening to what staff/associates/team members are all saying... about you!
Maximized Leadership™ Helping Employees Feel They Belong
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Everyone needs and wants to feel accepted, included, heard… and be a part of something bigger than themselves. It’s a basic human need - as important to us as food… clothing… or shelter. Helping others feel like they belong is the cornerstone of inclusive leadership. Part of how we define ourselves depends on what types of groups to which we belong: family units, social groups, religious affiliations, and common interest groups such as fitness, music or hobbies. The need to feel like we belong doesn’t end when we enter our place of work.
Maximized Leadership™ Understanding & Beating Bias
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Bias is something we all have, and by itself, it’s neither good nor bad. It’s a conscious or unconscious judgment we make based on information we have learned from our own experiences or by what we have been taught by others. To further enhance our skills as a leader we must tackle any biases that create negative relationships or impede an inclusive workplace.
Maximized Leadership™ Understanding Empathy
SOLLAH EXCLUSIVE!
Empathy is the capacity to understand or feel what another person is experiencing from within their frame of reference, that is, the capacity to place oneself in another person's position. It’s a powerful tool to build and maintain relationships – both inside and outside the workplace!

Responding to Mistakes (from Maximized Leadership™ The Power Of Positivity)
There's always a better way to deal with the inevitable mistakes that happen in the workplace. And that's where positive redirection comes in. The purpose of redirection is to refocus energy and attention either back to what someone is supposed to do; or, if necessary, on to something else.
The Positive Response (from Maximized Leadership™ The Power Of Positivity)
A positive response is a way to let an employee or team member know that not only are they doing a good job; but that you care about them as a person and appreciate their contribution. We've all gotten the little pats on the back before; the "nice goings" and the "good jobs." And there's nothing wrong with those. But a positive response is more than that.

Introduction (from Maximized Leadership™ The Power Of Positivity)
What's the most common response you get when you do something right at work? If you said - nothing - you're right. People usually only pay attention to you when you make a mistake. The fact is a "gotcha" approach is what most people experience on the job. Which basically means they never hear from anyone until they mess up. And when they do hear from someone - it's usually to point fingers and make sure they know it's their fault.
Say Something Positive Today (from Maximized Leadership™ The Power Of Positivity)

To foster those relationships, we all need to wake up and say something positive... especially when things are going right.

Everyday Leadership™ The Refund
As leaders in our organization, we all get frustrated sometimes, but we need to be positive and professional in our interactions with our customers. Taking out our frustrations on a customer could cause them to seek services from a competitor instead. We need to make sure we are offering them the best experience. Without our customers, we wouldn’t have a business.
