Michael's Most Requested Programs:
The Energized Approach, for effective leadership, organizational growth and positive change.
There are 3 certainties in life….Death, Taxes….and Change! Organizations spend an abundance of time, money and resources in an effort to drive change. All too often these efforts fall short of expectations. There is hope! In most cases the problem isn’t the change itself, it’s the environment into which the change is introduced and the methods used to introduce, implement and support this change. Whether it is the launching of a new program or initiative, an effort to promote positive attitudes or simply a desire to energize the environment; success is dependent upon CHANGE! In "The Energized Approach" Michael introduces the 10 essential energy sources and offers time-tested strategies to minimize resistance, maximize participation and create the energy that is essential for success.
If Change Were Easy, We’d All Be Perfect
Do you eat right, exercise regularly and avoid things that are bad for you? Ever cut a corner to get something done quickly? Even though we know the right things to do, we don’t always do them (and then we act surprised when others behave the same way!) In this lively, energetic, fun-filled session, Michael examines this humorous and often frustrating side of human behavior; the resistance to and the struggle with CHANGE. Through the use of REP: The Rational, Emotional and Physical Approach for Promoting Change, Michael helps you not only better understand what drives behaviors, but offers practical strategies for steering them in a positive direction.
From Knowing To Doing: Getting Maximum ROI From your Employee Training Efforts.
It is well known in the training world that “what is said” by an instructor is not necessarily “what is heard” by the audience. To complicate matters, “what is heard” by the audience doesn’t automatically turn into “what is done” when the class is over. Organizations invest substantial amounts of time and money on training to influence behaviors in a positive way. The problem is that most organizations focus attention solely on how the training will be delivered with little thought given to how it will be received and put into practice! In this fun, high energy and practical session Michael introduces REP: The Rational, Emotional and Physical Approach to Effective Training. The REP approach helps organizations maximize training effectiveness by focusing not only on how information is delivered, but also on how the audience receives this information and how they move from what they know…to what they do!
The Lighter Side of Sitting, Standing, Lifting and Stretching.
Did you know that there is no “right” way to lift, that long periods of sitting and standing can be done without fatigue or what it means to “let your body breathe”? In this high energy, interactive session Michael dispels the myths surrounding "proper" body mechanics and offers practical and effective strategies to increase comfort and productivity in any work environment. This popular session is a refreshing break from the normal course of events and offers participants valuable information while getting them up, moving and energized.
Surviving a Multi-Day Conference.
Organizations conduct conferences to motivate and energize audiences, yet prolonged sitting combined with changes in sleeping, eating and exercise habits often have the opposite effect. In this fun, high energy and hilarious session, Michael examines the physical demands of a conference and provides participants with practical tools to help them remain “energized” throughout the event and send them away ready to put their new-found knowledge to use. A great opening for your full day or multi-day conference!
