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?

How to Juggle Your Personal and Professional Lives Breakout Session: Burning the Candle at Both Ends--Without Burning Your House Down

Laughing Your Way Out of Stress

Life and work are stressful - overwhelming deadlines, stacks of paperwork, communication breakdowns.

Leadership Breakout Session: When Things Get Dire--Inspire!

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?

People will meet their boss's expectations, but they will surpass their leader's expectations...and their own.

Leadership Training: When Things Get Dire--Inspire!

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.

More Effective Communication Breakout Session:

Do you feel invisible, powerless, or misunderstood? In our high speed, double latte, DSL culture, attention spans are short and effective communication is fast.

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.

The Real Fear Factor: When Change Happens to Good People

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 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.
