Increasing Your Influence Quotient

In marketing jargon, "If you can’t tell it, you can’t sell it". If your team or key leaders have the potential for further growth in communicating their heart, the corporate purpose and goals for the enterprise, then this online workshop is a must!

Stories are remembered long after the meeting or the presentation, and when stories are intertwined with the message then the message becomes decidedly memorable. These practical sessions with Lisa will set your people on a pathway to greater influence.

The action plan usually consists of four sessions with each session of 90 mins duration. The sessions can be on consecutive days or spread over four weeks.

How to write a powerful and short success story.
Build confidence in your own personal brand.
Become the authority and speak with authority.
Learn how you want to be known by clients and peers.

Rise Strong

Build A Mindset For Growth

We are settling into what we hope is our new normal. What’s different? That seems such a silly question. The better question is “Is there anything that is the same?” We have come through a culture shock - everything is disrupted. At all levels our people must commit to embrace a new vision through incremental improvement in personal performance and commit to personal growth through professional collaboration.

Growth is accelerated when everyone commits to a mindset of growth and embraces the new vision through incremental improvement in personal performance. Everyone rises to the challenge of growth together.

In this session you will learn:

How to develop a growth mindset and fast track growth.
How to see change as an opportunity for growth.
How to effortlessly add new learning into your daily and weekly lives.
How to be more energetic in all areas of your life.
The power of small tweaks to create significant on-going growth.
