“What is your number one problem or challenge--at work, at home, in school or with relationships in general?”
The most common answer is “COMMUNICATION!”

Now there’s a CD series that will allow you to have effective dialogues at work with your boss, co-workers, and employees, in learning situations with students and teachers and in your personal life with your family and friends.

Each CD, approximately 30 minutes, is packed with practical, proven strategies you can begin to use immediately. Listen to them in your car—play them at work for training “lunch and learns”—make them available to your employees on your Intranet or in your business library—play them for your students—or give them to family members and friends. Listeners come away with new understandings that help them communicate more effectively in all of their relationships.

 Listen to samples below

 



Learn the four basic communications styles to determine your own—and to recognize the styles of others. Although we all have characteristics of each of the styles, typically we have one or two that stand out in our behavior. Many so-called “personality conflicts” are really just style differences. By knowing the strengths and potential liabilities of each style, you can tweak your own to accommodate the preferences of those with different styles in order to gain greater cooperation and rapport with anyone.

In this CD, you will learn how the four styles:

  • Solve problems and challenges

  • Influence others

  • Receive facts and data

  • Make decisions

  • Pace their work

  • And more!

    TESTIMONIAL

" I really liked the “picking apart” of the four communication styles.  It allows you to focus on your own style as well as learn to communicate with those who have different styles.  It works in a business, management or persona l setting.   If you don’t understand this, your message may get lost before you get started!  "

Do you get frustrated because people misunderstand you? You think you’ve been perfectly clear, but they misinterpret your point? Even worse, do you find yourself in conflict situations and don’t know the best way to engage the other person so you can discuss the conflict and, hopefully, come to a resolution that’s acceptable to both of you?

  • Understand how you sabotage getting what you want by the way you communicate-- or don’t communicate!
  • Ask for what you want effectively
  • Know the distinction between assertiveness and aggressiveness
  • Learn how to use “I messages”
  • Resolve personal or business conflicts with a simple 6-step model
  • And more!

    TESTIMONIAL

"I plan to use these CDs with my steering committee and with my entire team.  The take-aways related to communication and listening are very useful and important both for personal development in business and in personal life.  The ideas in the “Communicating To Get What You Want”  can help those that typically are more “confrontation adverse.”

TESTIMONIAL

"The CDs were very “on point” and gave great examples both for personal and professional use.  They can be used in an individual or group setting as a foundation for learning to communicate and listen better.  If listeners truly take these to heart, they will become better communicators and listeners both at the office and at home.”

When you are problem solving with other people, you have the choice of telling them what to do—or coaching them to find their own solutions. Coaching has become a valued management tool because the recipients feel more valued and empowered—and have more “buy in” to the course of action that is chosen since they helped to create it. The G-O-A-L-S coaching model is a simple but effective method to engage anyone in coaching—whether your colleague, your employee or even your teenager!

In this CD, you’ll learn:

  • To focus a conversation
  • How to foster discovery of solutions
  • To create action plans that work
  • To circumvent potential problems in advance
  • To summarize the conversation so everyone is clear on what is to be done
  • To use the G-O-A-L-S Model to make meetings more successful
  • And more!
