Influencing Programs and Keynotes
Breakthrough Presentation, Influencing and Coaching Solutions
This program is a lot of fun! Come prepared to boost your presentation skills by getting focused on what excites you as you learn to articulate and present your topic clearly and with confidence. The Persuasive Presenter – Part 1 will provide you with the tools and practice to structure a persuasive presentation, how to incorporate stories, anecdotes and metaphors and practical tips on body language and how to mange fear and engage your audiences. The program consists of two parts – see Part 2 below – and can be combined into one program or pursued as separate development tracks. You will need to prepare a 15 minute presentation in advance on your own laptop based on your work, research, passion or area of expertise. We will work with this presentation throughout the day. Take advantage of this opportunity to practise presenting in a safe environment and benefit from feedback that is appreciative, yet specific. The Ideas Engine™ program captures the collective intelligence of the organization and helps to “make meaning,” to quote John Seely Brown of the Palo Alto Research Centre. An integrative approach seeks to reach a synthesis of opposing ideas, positions and interests. While acknowledging the inevitable trade-offs of compromise and accommodation, an integrative approach seeks a return on engagement that is creative, a solution that is not pre-determined.

The Effective COMMUNICATOR Program™
The necessary conversations for leaders and managers
If you manage people and deal with customers it’s likely you’ll be faced at some point with a difficult or challenging conversation. How would you like to have those tough conversations with less stress and more success?
Integrative conflict resolution builds on collaboration by assertively seeking an improvement, an appreciative and creative synthesis that happens in the crucible of authentic engagement.
The CEO is also the Chief Engagement Officer – each conversation is an investment, and when the ‘CEO’ gets it right, he or she can experience a very good return on engagement [ROE] as a culture of authentic engagement begins to trickle through the organization. This 60-90 minute interactive presentation will provide you with eight practical models and methods that you can immediately use in your context. These transferable concepts can be adapted and customised to help you have those purposeful and sometimes crucial conversations and presentations with your customers or colleagues. What happens when a father hears that his son is gay and begins to confront his own demons about homosexuality? What happens when the father and the son go on a road trip, each with his own agenda, and they place an audio recorder on the dash of the van? Creating your whole life isn’t just about being happier; discovering your niche is a key driver that will empower you to live an engaging and more compelling life. Destineering centres on nine practical steps to change your world. These programs and keynotes will provide you with efficient and practical tools to use in the workplace.
