Mindsets focuses on developing innovative leaders who embrace a “Growth Mindset” versus a “Fixed Mindset.”  A “Growth Mindset” focuses on challenging thought processes, increasing energy levels (Both their own and their employees), and breaking patterns and routines which are the enemy of innovation.  

The Mindsets program allows leaders to gain a competitive advantage over their competition by developing a “Growth Mindset” which is predicated on:

•Challenging Thought Processes– Innovative leaders put their energy into learning, evolving, and growing as an employee.

•Increasing Energy Levels– Innovative leaders operate from the “Dog of Creativity” model versus the “Dog of Fear” model where they can create, innovate, fail fast, and produce extraordinary results for their company. 

•Disrupting Patterns and Routines– Innovative leaders know that patterns and routines are the enemy of innovation, inspiration, and forward thinking.

All of us should ask ourselves why we focus on the 15% of communication (Spoken Word) when over 85% of communication is communicated non-verbally.  “Starting Fires” is an immersive workshop where attendees learn how to shift their focus from the spoken word to reading and reacting off non-verbal cues.    

“Starting Fires” focuses on these non-verbal components:

Facial Expressions– One’s facial expressions conveys the emotions and intentions of what one truly feels when talking.  

Body Language– One’s body language is either open, closed, or neutral.  Depending on what one’s body language shows will have a direct impact on the communication process.  

Tone of Voice– The tone of one’s voice will affect the meaning and impact of one’s verbal message.

Energy Levels– Energy is felt in all venues and in all forums and it is measured in intensity, not volume.  

In today’s fast-paced world, we are rarely in the moment. We are reflecting on the past, or thinking about the future, and this lack of working in the moment is a major cause of accidents.  Every year, un-focused acts costs billions of dollars in damage and injury.

“Working in the Moment” combats this problem by giving audience members the tools to operate in the present moment, eliminate distractions, and heighten their attention to detail.  Distractions include being sleep deprived, hungry, along with the digital distractions that keep our focus on us rather than the job we are doing at that moment.

1. Accidents- Reduce accidents by being present
2. Culture- Improve your work environment by getting the focus off of you and onto others
3. Stress- Improve health by reducing stress-caused symptoms such as panic attacks, headaches,
and indigestion
4. Accountability- Understanding unsafe behaviors have consequences and we are responsible
for our actions
5. Anxiety- Decrease unnecessary anxiety by changing one’s inner dialogue
