“For the first time ever we’re functioning as a team!”

Hello,

I have created a very powerful workshop that is currently being referred to as the 4-hour transformation because in 4 hours I’m able to work with a team small or large (10 to 100) and help them break down communication barriers, build constructive communication patterns, and function as a dynamic team. At the end of the workshop team members are moved to tears because of how good they feel about themselves, their co-workers, and the child care profession. It’s amazing to see the transformation from the beginning of the workshop to the conclusion. And it’s even more amazing when I follow up with the team several months later and hear that things are still going great. Wow!

The workshop is tailored to meet the needs of your team. Some leaders would like their team to have more motivation, to be inspired to do more than their “fair share” of the work, to have the willingness to arrive 5 minutes before their scheduled start time, or to meet deadlines for paperwork, etc. Other leaders would like their team to quit gossiping, to like each other more – so they can work as a team, and feel comfortable covering for each other in various classrooms. Other leaders want to put an end to the non-stop venting and complaining and empower their team to resolve conflicts on their own.

If you’re thinking: “If I could make all this happen I would have more time and energy - and I would enjoy my job more and I would feel less stress, frustration, and anxiety!” – You’re right! This workshop is transforming environments, moods, and attitudes! Here’s what a few of our clients have stated:

Sherry Ward, Director of an extended day program stated: “I have been program director for more than 13 years and during that time, we have had several different presentations on communicating and communication tools. None, however, has been as successful as yours. For the first time, I felt the entire staff ended the evening truly committed to working together as a team.”

Phyllis Benedetto with Babylon Child Care Center stated: “We all agree we are on the right track and it is thanks to you and your skills. We are working more as a team thanks to the tools you introduced on our Saturday, all day, workshop... They are more open to each other’s moods and are more understanding of each other’s shortcomings. They are beginning to work with each other, causing a newfound synergy, which has helped us raise the morale of the center…for the first time ever, I feel we are on the right track… We look forward to having you come back sometime soon.”

Anita Howard with The Village Preschool stated: “In four hours my attitude as a supervisor had changed… I now view my staff as key components to my structure rather than problems…”

And Amy St. Louis with Building Blocks declared: “The whole atmosphere here has changed in a major positive way…”

Here are a few of the objectives for this workshop:

Build Constructive Communication Patterns: Eliminate those destructive communication patterns (like gossip) that seem to tear your organization apart and cause much unwanted stress and frustration! Whether your team needs a refresher or a positive transformation this is a great workshop to make mandatory! You & your team will be glad you did!

What’s my availability to conduct a workshop for your team?

Saturdays are the best day for your team to experience this workshop. (Yes – at first you might hear moans and groans from your team but I guarantee by the conclusion of the workshop team members will think it was an awesome, worthwhile experience.) Their minds are fresh and they are not as tired as they would be during the week. However, Saturdays go fast. So give me a call today to express your interest and discuss a tentative date.

Enthusiastically,
