Judy Carter

Wish you could go back to the old days when everyone looked, thought and acted the same? Frustrated by a multi-ethnic workplace and a world of "new ideas" that challenge everything you've always believed? It's a lot easier to learn to live with diversity than to find a way to go back in time. It's also a whole lot more rewarding, for creativity has its essence in diversity. Give up the antiquated notion of "one right way" and learn how to listen to, and utilize, the new types of people and ideas in your life.

1. Sale: Laughing all the way to the bank
2. Customer Relations: Stand-up to the hecklers in your life.

It is now a proven medical fact that laughter can improve both physical and mental health. It's free. You don't have to swallow it with water. It's not painful. So why hasn't someone harnessed it and sold it as a miracle cure?

Judy Carter has. And that's why she's spoken to doctors' groups, nurses, hospital staffs, social workers, and healthcare conferences.

From laughing your way out of stress to using humor to connect with your patients, Judy Carter will show you how to get your daily dose of laughter and how to pass it on.

Do your kids refer to you as "That person who sleeps here?" Do you get too many business calls at home, and too many personal calls at work? When you go to the bathroom at 3 AM, do you check your work email on the way back to bed? You can have both a fast track career and a happy home life by clearly setting your boundaries and priorities and using simple but effective time management techniques.

1. Leadership: Become the CEO of your life.
2. Communication: Nagging your way to success and other unsuccessful techniques
3. Stress Management: Turn your problems into punch lines
4. Life Skills: Life is short – laugh, love and eat pie

Are you a boss or a leader? Do you equate fear with respect and power with effectiveness? Do you bully people to get your desires met? Leadership is a lot more than getting other people to do what you want--it's inspiring them to do their very best and take pride in their work. People will meet their boss's expectations, but they will surpass their leader's expectations...and their own.

A lot of speaker’s talk about “Leadership,” but nobody does it as funny as Judy. Using multimedia movie clips, audience participation, and magic, Judy shows leadership secrets that apply to managers, CEO’s, and even, parents that will inspire you, as well as making you laugh-out-loud.

Do you feel invisible, powerless, or misunderstood? In our high speed, double latte, DSL culture, attention spans are short and effective communication is fast. In order to be heard you must learn the art of "Power-Talking"--presenting your ideas in quick, compelling "sound bites" that grab your listener's attention and engage her imagination. Just as important is learning to "Power- Listen"--active listening techniques that elicit people's deeper feelings and concerns. Power-Listening makes people feel heard, and can often resolve conflicts without any other action needed.

Your company might be reorganizing or focusing in a different direction. Your financial situation has probably changed -- seemingly for the worse (unless you're CEO of Enron and now living in the Bahamas on shareholder money).

Judy shows companies how to embrace change creatively and with humor. She provides tools and strategies to face the many challenges of change, and to take those challenges and make them into opportunities.

Judy talks about how change is a part of the cycle of life. We can ignore it, run from it, or embrace it as part of the adventure of life and have a good laugh.

Do people ignore your ideas...or steal them? Do you see products on TV and think, "I thought of that years ago!" Successful people are people who take action--the right action. Learn how to start a successful business by finding your passion, testing your ideas, setting yourself apart from the competition, enlisting the support of others and setting realistic goals.
