Program Overview

This world-renowned program is based on more than 100 years of experience. It proves that real growth and change can occur, with solid principles and practice supported by consistent coaching. The 3-day program focuses the participant on the important priorities in their life and supports them to implement practical tools for personal and professional growth. Our graduates report breakthroughs in these area:

Communication - become clear, concise, and persuasive:
​Many people enroll in this program because they want to improve their ability to speak in front of groups. They learn that communicating starts with listening. When we become active listeners, our one-on-one communications improve. Through practice we become more clear and concise, and able to capture and hold people's attention, whether one-on-one or in front of a group.

People skills and human relations:
​People skills are an essential ingredient for business and personal success. The principles in How to Win Friends and Influence People are the foundation for building better relationships, getting enthusiastic cooperation, handling conflict, and changing attitudes and behaviors.

Controlling stress and developing a positive attitude:
​Are you being asked to do more with less, produce at a higher quality and lower cost, do it faster with fewer resources? You're not alone. Keeping a positive attitude under this new business reality is not a case of reacting to circumstances; it is a result of a decision. You can choose to put stress in perspective and not let worry steal the time and energy you could instead be using productively.

Leadership skills - get willing cooperation:
​Leadership always has been and always will be about influence. No matter your title or your position on the organization chart, you have the ability to positively influence others on the job, in the home, at the church and in your community. Our graduates rise to the opportunity for leadership and learn how to create an environment that results in willing cooperation from those they influence.

Building self-confidence:
​We offer no magic pills. We do offer the observation, based on more than 100 years of experience, that our graduates develop more self-confidence. Throughout the active learning process, participants discover how to communicate more effectively, build better relationships, lead others in a positive direction, control stress and have a positive attitude. When these skills are developed, self-confidence is an inevitable result.
