In the world today, the way to get ahead and succeed is working together well. This experience will allow individuals to create a motivating personal vision so you can achieve more than you thought possible. When leaders today show up and are focused on their success and the success of their teams, they are viewed as more collaborative and likeable. This workshop is designed to unlock your potential and help those you work with unlock theirs as well. Learn to: • Use 9 principles to connect with others • Have a motivating vision for yourself • Get to know people using an innerview • Focus on how you impact others and can work together to achieve success Bryan will focus on how we can better understand and retain employees who either come from a poverty mindset or are living paycheck to paycheck. Oftentimes, managers are not able to understand their perspective which leads to frustration and turnover. If we can help one employee overcome poverty, we can impact the generations that follow!
