THE HUMAN SIDE OF CHANGE:
Its Impact on Your Profits & Costs

EFFECTIVE TIME MANAGEMENT:
Practicing the Art of Balance or How Jumping From a Perfectly Good Airplane Changed My Life

Outstanding! Your tailored outline was pertinent to our members and gave attendees something to take home with them. The audience participation exercises allowed for interaction and were an important part of getting your message across.
— Georgia Society of CPAs

Stop stalling and start achieving. Break through inertia, indecision, and procrastination. Get started on the projects that make a bottom-line difference. Learn to choose an attitude and focus that contributes to your success while minimizing the chance of failure. Whether you’re parachuting from an airplane or making corporate decisions, there’s no room for ambivalence. Learn to use the “Power of Choice” to break through obstacles and fears and to become productive within one minute.

TURNING STRESS INTO SUCCESS:
How to Perform Under Pressure

You were rated “excellent” across the board. You provided practical business examples we could take back to the office and communicate easily to managers. Your presentation was a conference highlight.
— National Human Resources Association

Harness the energy of stress and use it constructively. Learn to identify and eliminate the attitudes, inner dialogue, and patterns that cause self-induced stress. Discover how working with less stress and more creativity significantly reduces employee burnout, absenteeism and turnover while increasing morale, team building and commitment. This presentation gives participants a “stress inoculation shot” – rapidly re-directing stress into productive action.

EFFECTIVE SELF-COACHING:
Take Charge of Your Life & Your Attitude

Our managers had very positive responses to your enlightening talk at our Regional Management Retreat . . . you were right on-target: “Neil really is excellent.” “Good and personally valuable – especially with high stress months ahead.” “Great examples – good style. Effective in a short period of time.” “Great presentation of great relevance to me at this time. Thank you.” “Neil was inspiring, human and down to earth. More!” “Self-care message was appreciated. Often this expression of being valued by the organization does not come through. It did today.”
— Harry Joel, Regional VP, Human Resources, Catholic Healthcare West

Get unstuck from your old ruts by learning how to unify your energies around your core values and vision. You’ve read the books and taken the usual training – from Stephen Covey to TQM to “thinking outside the box.” You know what to do, now get the tools to implement the knowledge. Effective Self-Coaching gives you those tools – both the strategic perspective and the tactical application that pulls it all together, propelling you toward your goals, making success not only possible, but inevitable. Participants will learn how to replace ineffective coaching with “The Language of Producers” and a commitment to on-going learning and improvement.

Learn how to speak a language that evokes the cooperation of your unconscious mind in achieving your goals. Whether you are trying to lose weight, stop smoking, or advance in your career, how you set your goals will determine your success or failure. Experience the fun and ease that comes when you unite your all aspects of your mind — left and right brain hemispheres and conscious and unconscious resources — in bringing about transformational change and success.

KEEPING YOUR STAFF HEALTHY AND PRODUCTIVE:
What you can do

Neil is a wonderful, spirit-filled speaker and I will take a lot away from this workshop. He started the conference on an upbeat note and helped me envision ways to help myself and reduce my stress.
— participant, St. Joseph’s Hospital, Albuquerque

There is now definitive research evidence that healthcare costs are cut significantly when employees use meditative-relaxation techniques, the written expression of feelings, support groups, and active participation in their healthcare.
