THE REAL TRUTH ABOUT STICKS AND STONES:
Recharging our Batteries & Creating Changeability

Successful leadership of others begins with more expert leadership of ourselves. Michael uses a creative, highly entertaining approach to present a practical, no-nonsense set of tools to help people:

• handle stress and keep balanced
• be more open to learning new things and keep growing professionally
• work better with others
• resist burnout
• meet challenges with more flexibility and skill
• handle change in positive ways

This session lets each of us take a refreshing and often surprising look at the conclusions we’ve made about ourselves, why we believe them, and how they unconsciously hold us back by limiting our choices. It demonstrates how to listen to ourselves with greater skill and replaces the prevailing myth about people’s “styles” with more positive steps to help us be more flexibly effective. You’ll be recharged and revitalized!
