1.  Shift Is Possible  (Leadership, Team Building, Customer Service or Personal Motivation)

We live in a world where we are constantly connected, strategically isolated, and yearning for personal truth.  There is a perplexing tension between our aspirations and the reality of our actions. Do we do what we say we will do?  How consistently?  What is our shift readiness factor?    

During this lively and humorous Keynote, our presenter will explore the possibilities for shifting our plans, tuning up our relationships and expanding our personal horizons.  Be prepared to use the questions, dialogue  and hear the call to jump out of the rut.   

2.  The Strategy of Strategy  (Executive Leadership, Prelude to Strategic Planning)

Maggie brings her stories, her sense of humour and thought-provoking theories about our understanding of “Strategy” around the board room table. 

We will understand why the words “dialogue” , “flow” and “gusto”  should be added to our organizational vocabulary.  Maggie’s expertise in asking the right question at the right time, for the right reasons, will demonstrate how to analyze and strategize so that our organization experiences more flow.   The added benefits?  Clarity, competence and commitment (let’s remember laughter) between volunteers and staff. 

3.  Another Day, Another Dilemma (All Levels, All Industries)

When your leaders and the team need to make strategic – and effective  - decisions, they need the time and the tools to strengthen their personal styles.   Stressful environments and fast-paced demands require flexible decision-making mindsets, which intertwine:

 

§         Analysis of data and factual information

§         Breakthroughs in creative thinking and conceptual pathways

§         Expressive dialogue, and

§         Versatile methodologies appropriate for each situation. 

 

The truth is that determining the right approach is often derailed by personal assumptions, self-delusional practices, out-dated skills, closed conversations and organizational culture.  Through a combination of theory, experimentation, role plays and strategic scenario planning, participants will build both their capacity and capability for making key decisions.           Maggie delivers with panache and a twist!
