Asset-Based Thinking® Fundamentals

With Asset-Based Thinking®, you shine the spotlight of your attention on what is strong, valuable, and possible in yourself, other people, and any situation so you can become proactive, resilient, optimistic and confident.

“I want people to know that when they become an Asset-Based Thinker they can drive positive change in their organization, even in their home life – that people they work with will become more engaged, more attracted to working with them – and we can all get more done, go farther faster, and that is really what work is all about today."
We have the right solution for you.

Beyond Employee Engagement: Creating a Passionate Workforce with Asset-Based Thinking®

Are your employees more harried and reactive than confident and creative? Do they have the right ideas, the right desire, and the right skills but get sabotaged by worry, disappointments, perfectionism, and the very human tendency to dwell on deficits?

This Asset-Based Thinking® (ABT) program provides you with straightforward, tangible ways to propel individual assets and positive energy into “workforce passion” so that employee engagement, productivity and customer service thrive.

Change The Way You See Meetings

Great Meetings are an opportunity for smart, creative people to pool their collective intelligence, think and work together, collaborate, create, and even enjoy themselves in the process. A meeting is a perfect opportunity to harness the power and energy of the group.

Most people spend a lot of time in meetings. However, most meetings fall short of great. What if you could plan and lead meetings that go way beyond the usual hum-drum of exchanging and receiving information to inspiring energy, collaborative exchanges and creative solutions?

In this hands-on, interactive workshop, you will learn how to design, plan and lead great meetings. A skilled facilitator will provide you with the principles of great meetings, knowl-edge of what it takes to be a great meeting facilitator and strategies for making meetings highly interactive and engaging as well as productive.
