Signature Workshops 

Bouncing Back: Helping yourself or someone you love bounce back from the blues  

Whether it's a chronic case of the blues or a major low, you can't will a depression away.  If that were possible, there wouldn't be so many people feeling so blue.  Medication can help, but rarely is it enough, because it doesn't get to the bottom of the depression.   

And that's a huge problem in the workplace.  It's been estimated that depression accounts for an estimated $43.7 billion in absenteeism, lost productivity and treatment costs! [Mental Health America]  So it makes good sense to provide employees with the compassionate understanding and tools they need to address it. 

This seminar is designed to help employees understand depression – theirs or someone else's – and to begin to see a way to move past it.  Instead of fighting the symptoms, we'll talk about turning off the power to the causes.  Instead of battling depression, we'll talk about approaches that allow it to simply dissolve.

What's Stopping You!

Procrastination stops some of the most talented people from accomplishing, sometimes because they're afraid they won't achieve the high standards they've set for themselves, sometimes because they're afraid of success.  What's Stopping You is a two-part workshop with real kick! 

Day 1: Understand & Plan  -- Together we'll explore barriers to completing (or even starting) projects that truly are important to each participant.  Next, they'll choose the one(s) they'd like to tackle first and create a plan.   

Day 2: Power Hours – Put those plans into action!  From their own locations, participants call in via bridgeline at the beginning of each hour, declare what they'll complete in the next hour, and it's READY, SET, GO!  Then report back at the end of the hour. The Power Hour is a proven strategy for getting it done!  Group members can participate for a single hour -- or for the entire day.  They'll experience momentum by participating in even one Power Hour during the day. 
 

Reflections of You — your personal definition of success  

For some, success is money and power; for others it is defined in terms of relationships and other less tangible factors. Using a simple formula, participants will have the opportunity to create a personal definition of success that will immediately begin to drive their decisions.  A potent tool that will help them balance competing demands and set priorities to manage the rush of daily life.  
 

Creating Sea Change in Your Life  

Designed to help employees get ready to step into a major change or challenge –

"Sea change" signifies a profound transformation. 

  • It's the powerful shift that occurs when an employee takes the risk of sharing an intuition
  • It's the change in your energy that occurs when a staff member has the courage to turn down a request – and maintain the boundaries necessary for your firm to function optimally.
  • It's the world that opens up when a valued employee has the courage to stretch and take on a major challenge
 

Following that energy, like traveling a path where you can only see the next three feet in front of you, creates sea change.  

And that's what Sea Change is about – an opportunity to discover and explore the possibilities for major shifts in participants' lives -- in a framework that will help them make it happen.
