Organizational Thrivability

What would your bottom line look like in 6 months if your people and your organization were thriving?

If your organization isn't thriving it's time to do something different.

If you're tired of spending more time putting out fires than doing 'real' work, it's time to take a different tack.

Who else has found themselves in a position where they loved their work - if only they didn't have to deal with people!

Well I can't remove the people from your life, after all that's what management and leadership is all about isn't it?. But if you've reached the point where you know if something doesn't change heads will roll - and one of them may be yours, then it's time we talked.

But to make the most effective use of every bodies time, before we talk please take a moment to take our Thrivability Audit from the perspective of your leadership role. It will help you get an idea of areas where quick action could result in improved results.

Then review the program overviews listed below. These programs are designed to help organizations leverage their ability to THRIVE.

ORGANIZATIONAL PROGRAMS

	Edu-Breaks Short, information packed sessions over a lunch break that will begin to open new perspectives and help scientific and technical people become more effective when working with others. Some popular topics include: • What Drives People Crazy - And How To Put On The Brakes • Coaching Personal and Professional Resilience • How To Be In Your Element - Anywhere, Anytime • Finding Common Ground - Working Better Together • Leadership Is An Inside Job - And You Hold The Key
	Workshops Each of the above topics can be prevented in a longer more intensive workshop format designed to address your unique circumstances. Additional topics which might be of interest include stress management, personal and professional resilience, building collaborative relationships, managing business relationships and leadership communication. Karen is also licensed to facilitate the following Workshops in a variety of formats and lengths: 1. Path Elements Profile™: Igniting Teams. Increasing Results 2. How Much Joy Can You Stand 3. Living Your Joy To discuss bringing either an Edu-Break or a workshop presentation to your organization, please contact Karen Switzer-Howse for more information.
	Assessments To help people enhance their ability to work well with others and develop their unique leadership abilities they need to understand what drives them and how others see them operating in the world - not only how they think they operate, but how they actually appear to others. Assessments are a valuable addition to any of the topics identified above because they provide the participants with valuable data resulting in insights into who they are and how they operate. This information gives them an arms length view of themselves and new perspectives that can be invaluable in helping them understand and communicate more effectively with others. Although some of our Assessments can be taken as a stand-alone service which provides people with a report outlining the findings, experience has shown that people benefit far more when they combine the new information with some form of additional education and support. To increase the benefit of the Assessment, Karen provides you with an opportunity to either purchase it as part of a package which includes a de-briefing session and additional coaching on how to use the findings, or purchase this additional help at the same special price within thirty days of the original Assessment. Please refer to the Assessment page for additional information on the individual assessments and the options available. Please be aware that an Assessment is only a snap-shot in time, you are not the Assessment result - it merely provides you with additional information that can provide additional perspectives should you choose to use it. To explore how you and your organization might benefit from using assessments, please contact Karen Switzer-Howse.
	The REACH© Corporate Program This program was developed for people working in high-pressure multi-disciplinary environments where interpersonal issues can result in discord and even eventually undermine the successful outcome of projects. Your organization may have exceptionally talented people that have dedicated themselves to being the best in their chosen field, however how confident are you that this education and training has prepared them to step into leadership roles in to-day's increasingly complex world? Our REACH Program will provide them with all the tools and support they need to leverage their knowledge, skills and abilities to reach their true level of success. The REACH Program consists of 9 week Modules divided into three themes, REACH IN, REACH OUT, and REACH BEYOND. Depending on your organization's challenges and needs, you can chose to concentrate on one theme, or work through all three. Call Karen to explore how these programs can add value to your organization.
