Bringing Out the Best in Yourself and Others - 30-60 minutes
Often, we adults think of others as a different sort of animal with lots of problems and sometimes difficult to work with; they bug us; they are different -- as if they are "frog-like"; we just do not want to be around them. But, our job as leaders is to stop, turn around, bend down, and kiss a frog; and many of these frogs will turn into beautiful princes or princesses. We will be enhancing the lives of others as well as our own.
Establishing a Positive Supportive Organizational Climate - 30-60 minutes
We are a mirror from which others often perceive their potential ...
Through this workshop, participants will understand the elements necessary to establish a positive organizational climate. Specific Strategies will be taught to improve the morale and motivation of the staff in the organization. Participants will learn how they have an enormous impact on the atmosphere in which they work.
The Kids Learn from Us - 40-60 minutes
There are many laughs, as well as tears, in growing up, especially as we look back. Our families have had their good times and also times maybe not quite so good.
Travel this fun and exciting road with Bill Ecker as he examines in a humorous way the trials and tribulations, the growth and the learning, the "how to's" and the "how not to's" from birth to old age.
Learn what research says and what we need to do to help youngsters travel through (you can't go around) the road to adulthood and maturity. As parents, educators, and, yes, even as adults, we need to discover and rediscover this beautiful and dynamic journey.
Making Anger a Positive - 40-60 minutes
We have a responsibility to solve problems, not create or continue problems. Even if our customers are angry, we have a duty to help them in a positive, caring manner so that we can solve the problem. Some things we'll address:
• How can I best send a positive message to our customers? •
• How do I turn negative confrontation into positive problem solving? •
• What skills do I need to maintain my composure while under fire? •
A speech for you old people
or
"I'm old, and I am tired."
or
"Help me laugh to exercise my wrinkles."
