Keynote Speaking
Business Programs
(Approximately One Hour)
- Joy in The Workplace—Put Latitude in Your Attitude! There is scientific evidence to prove that laughter
is the best medicine. Adding a dash of humor to your life is just as important as adding Bran to your diet. W-O-R-K doesn’t have to be a four-letter word! Your job can be F-U-N. Reinvent yourself by using humor to maximize your professional relationships to get the most out of yourself and those around you. Learn how successful companies such as Southwest Airlines to small mom & pop stores invest in making sure that their employees are happy so their customers will be. (This program has mass appeal to just about every industry and relates to companies and organizations both large and small).
-
Customer Service for Smarties (not dummies)! If outstanding customer service is so easy to deliver (some companies deliver it in 30-minutes or less or it’s free) then why is it so hard to get people to do it? How do you give the customer what they want and still keep your sanity? Should you treat customer Gen-Xers and Gen-EX-Laxers the same? What are the top ten customer turn-ons and turn-offs? Be prepared for several
a-ha! moments. (This program appeals to those who sell, service and take care of everything from a patient’s body to a customer’s car).
-
Zero to Conversation in 30 Seconds! Everyday we are given unlimited opportunities to tell people about what makes us special. Yet many hold back. Schmooze or you lose. Networking and laying a foundation to do business don’t always have to take place in a so-called networking environment. Learn to become more aware and be prepared when the possibilities to converse present themselves. You’ll gain a whole new spin on the question:
"What do you do?" (This program is suggested for anyone in business that’s responsible for boosting the bottom line).
-
What's Your PIM Number? And why should you be giving it out to everyone.
PIM is: Perception, Image and
Marketing. What kind of impression do you create for prospective clients before they meet you? Are you doing everything within your power to create a unique image? How do you remain "top of mind" in your client's Palm Pilot? Learn how to create a memorable impression that carries on long after the client has signed the “investment agreement.” (This program appeals to entrepreneurs, sales people and those working for companies who believe in giving their people creative latitude toward boosting the bottom line).

Fun Fact
You can lose weight by laughing. When we laugh our hearts beat faster, our lungs expand, we take in more oxygen and our face, arms, legs and stomach muscles are stimulated—just like in aerobic exercise. In fact three to four good guffaws a day where you really get your heart and lungs working is equivalent to 15 minutes on a stationary bike.
