Successful inventors and entrepreneurs have figured out how to create and leverage productive relationships that help them acquire the resources and talent to take them from idea to enterprise. At the heart of this are effective relationships which are built on effective communication.

We connect with each other every day through our phones, e-mail, face-to-face conversations, meetings and more. How often do these communications leave you with the nagging feeling that people are not engaged, important decisions are not being made, and nothing is really being accomplished?

Roughly 75 percent of the people with whom you communicate have basic communication and decision making styles different from yours. You can easily customize your approach to others to accommodate these differences. You achieve your goals much faster when people actually hear what you are saying.

The Management by Strengths Boot Camp is a teambuilding workshop that will help you quickly master the communication skills needed to accelerate collaboration, persuade more effectively, and bring out the best in others. Additionally, you will learn hands-on tools, techniques, and tactics to facilitate more effective teamwork.

Your basic communication style preferences will be identified prior to the workshop when you complete the Management By Strengths (MBS) survey. This is done online and takes less than 10 minutes.

During the interactive workshop you will develop a practical understanding of your MBS Profile Report and learn how to quickly apply outward focused skills to improve both professional and personal relationships.

Join us as we work to build your management strengths and radically improve the performance of your business.
