Managing the 1st Impression
Whether you are meeting a new boss, changing jobs or
looking for your next promotion, managing the
impression you make and how you come across to
others often determines your success or failure.
Seemingly small things often make a big difference
in interactions with others. We all have our own
unique style of communicating with others. Learn
some of the subtle yet important ways we all
communicate and how you can use this knowledge to
your advantage in making the best impression you
possibly can.
Handling Grief in the Workplace
Your employees are your most important asset for
running your business and keeping it profitable.
It is difficult under the best of circumstances to keep
everyone working at full potential but under stressful
conditions, it is even more of a challenge. While
a survey of 456 companies revealed that 84% had EAP
programs, only 10% of employees use them. EAP's handle
only part of the grief/crisis picture. A manager needs
to do more than just send the grieving individual to an
EAP program. He or she needs to know
what to do in times of crisis & grief and
how to talk to grieving individual and their
co-workers. Focus should be on awareness and action.
What you do during this difficult time directly impacts
your company's bottom line. The actions you take can
have long lasting affects on how your employee feels
about you and the company long
after the crisis has passed.
How
To Avoid The Job From Hell
A job search is long and very often
difficult. Make sure that you are doing all you
can before accepting the job offer to ensure that the
match between you and your new employer is a good one.
We'll cover steps, tips and advice on how to increase
your chances for a great match. Come hear about some of the
challenges and how to avoid the most common pitfalls of
connecting to the wrong job.
Company Culture
Clues for Job Seekers
Play the detective
and seek out the facts on company culture!
Far too
often job seekers look at salary, job title and
responsibilities, location and benefits but neglect to
determine the company’s culture when deciding on a new
job. For many this proves to be a big mistake.
A poor fit for you and the company means staying in a
difficult situation or starting another job search.
Come hear some tips that will help you determine if that
“perfect” job really is as good as the interviewer said
it would be!
The Art of Small Talk -Networking
Skills
In today's fast-paced environment,
connecting quickly with others is more important than
ever. Whether you are looking to land your next job,
advance your current career or simply meet new people,
mastering the art of small talk will help give you the
boost you need. Come learn how to feel comfortable
making "small talk".
Negotiating Skills for Today's Professional
We all have to negotiate each day in a
variety of ways. Sometimes it's negotiating for
new business with a client, or a salary increase or
buying a car. You could be negotiating to get your
children to do their homework. Some people enjoy
the process. Many don't. Negotiating is a
skill that anyone can master. Negotiation isn't
about winning and it isn't about someone else losing.
It is, however, about learning to play the game so that
both sides feel like they have won.
How to
Hire the Right People for your Organization
In today's environment hiring the
right person is critical. This workshop will focus
on how to search for candidates, interview and complete
the hiring process. Learn how to cut recruiting
time, utilize the job boards on the internet, and use a
structured interview. Focus will also touch on the
importance of training and developing your new employee
once they are on board.
Communication Skills for Women
The way you talk, the
gestures you use, the tone of voice, the words you
choose - they all add up to how others perceive you.
In this workshop you'll discover the keys to becoming a
more dynamic, powerful and confident communicator.

powering up your speech, enhancing your nonverbal
communication skills, becoming an "active listener" and
