Some people, upon their arrival at this place called MANAGEMENT, believe they can rest on their laurels.

Truth is, there is much more to learn and much more growing that has to take place.

The job requires new knowledge, new skills, and new behaviors, and managers need go after learning opportunities whenever and wherever they can find them.

Here are three ways to grow into a really great manager:

• Seed – get feedback from all levels to gain insight into your performance
• Feed – get smarter: Go after your own learning and development
• Weed – get rid of unwanted behaviors

Join Chuck Wolfe in an entertaining, engaging, and practical presentation  designed to inform leaders about key aspects of emotional intelligence.

Chuck will demonstrate how we all have emotional abilities, that we differ in these abilities, and why these differences matter.

Chuck’s presentation will include multi-media including video with an award winning business leader, audio with an award winning Harvard Professor, and audio of callers from his radio show.

Chuck will demonstrate how his Emotion Roadmap helps leaders and team members inspire and influence others.

Learn how to:

• Increase engagement
• Embrace change
• Manage conflict
• Improve performance
• Handle other emotionally challenging situations at work and at home

As leaders you will gain knowledge about managing relationships, and you will know how you can assess emotional abilities, leadership styles, and motivational driving forces for members of your organization.

You will learn how emotional intelligence assessment can provide information on emotional strengths and potential “emotional intelligence disabilities.”

Did you know just as there are learning disabilities there are also emotional disabilities? Join Chuck for what promises to be an exciting presentation.

Opening channels for collaborative communication is critical in today’s ever-changing work place.

Employers and managers risk drowning out valuable input and alienating employees if they simply push information out and dictate direction.  However, providing and managing invitations to participate can be challenging.

In other words, moving from monologue to dialog is necessary, yet difficult.

You must balance presenting clear information concisely – that is, commanding the room — with facilitating input and innovation – in other words, collaborating creatively.

Learn to:

1. Manage anxiety prior to speaking so that you are calm and confident when engaging your audience.
2. Prepare your audience for interactive participation.
3. Facilitate the participation while it’s happening, such as calling for questions and queuing them up.

Join Matt and learn specific, immediately applicable facilitation techniques that are informed by scholarly research.

Presenter:  Matt Abrahams  (Linkedin profile @boldecho) Co-Founder/Principal at Bold Echo Communications, has published research articles on cognitive planning, persuasion, and interpersonal communication. Matt works with executives to help prepare and present keynote addresses and IPO road shows, conduct media interviews, deliver TED talks and recently published the third edition of his book Speaking Up without Freaking Out: 50 Techniques for Confident and Compelling Presenting, Matt also developed a software package that provides instant, proscriptive feedback to presenters.
