Workshop Areas

Sharpening Your Sales Skills: How to sell like a pro even if you hate sales.

 

Most business owners and service professionals didn't get into their field to sell. Their whole livelihood hangs in the balance. This workshop teaches a structured, comfortable approach to prospecting, presenting, and closing. Participants leave with a repeatable sales process, a personal prospecting plan, and the confidence to have sales conversations without feeling like a salesperson. The program includes my Sales Communication Blueprint and practical exercises in building referral networks through my Champions' Power Referral Network system.

 

Communication Skills and DISC Training

Miscommunication costs more than most companies realize, in lost deals, turnover, conflict, and wasted meetings. This workshop covers practical communication skills, including active listening, delivering feedback, managing difficult conversations, and understanding behavioral styles through DISC training. Participants learn to read others quickly and adjust their approach for better outcomes in sales, leadership, and daily collaboration.

 

Leadership Development

Good leaders aren't born. Mentors guide them. We work through real scenarios from your organization and practice the conversations leaders need to have. Participants leave with a personal leadership plan and a simple set of management rituals keeping their teams focused and productive.

 

Priority and Time Management

High activity levels often hide a total lack of meaningful achievement. This workshop teaches the 80/20 rule in practice: identifying the 20% of activities driving 80% of results and building a weekly structure protecting those activities from interruption. Participants build a priority management plan tailored to their role and commitments.

 

Business Clarity and Strategic Planning

For leadership teams and ownership groups, this workshop walks through my CLARITY Module process, a 62-question structured assessment of every layer of the business. Teams leave with a clear picture of where they stand, where the gaps are, and a 90-day action plan with specific milestones and owner assignments. This workshop is particularly valuable for businesses preparing for growth, market expansion, or succession.

 

Mindset Development

Real change starts between your ears. This workshop helps owners and leaders move from a survival mindset to a possibility mindset, changing how they evaluate risk, respond to pressure, and make decisions. We use cognitive-behavioral techniques, visualization, and goal-setting exercises to install the mental habits supporting long-term performance. Participants leave with a daily mindset practice they can maintain independently.

How Workshops Are Delivered

We adjust each lesson for your group. I grab a coffee with the founders to hear about their struggles and how the staff actually works together. Next, I build a workshop focused on your actual hurdles with hands-on drills your group can use right away.

 

Workshops can run as half-day or full-day sessions, and I also design multi-session programs for organizations wanting deeper skill development over time. I deliver workshops on-site, virtually, and in hybrid formats.

 

Group sizes range from small leadership teams of five to company-wide sessions of 50 or more. The approach for a five-person startup looks different from the approach for a multi-location enterprise, and I adjust accordingly.

What to Expect

We fill each class with hands-on practice and actual business cases. Your group leaves with a kit of resources ready for immediate use. My style is plain-spoken and practical. I bring knowledge built from founding 14-plus startups, turning around over 400 companies, and logging more than 15,000 hours of professional coaching, training, and consulting.

 

I serve organizations in the Greater Maricopa County area, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Glendale, Chandler, and Tempe, and work with clients worldwide from my offices in Phoenix, Arizona, and Wichita, Kansas.

What My 1-On-1 CEO Coaching Entails

Underneath lofty annual goals live layers of interconnected components requiring alignment so progress flows smoothly at the execution level without bottlenecks. My behind-the-scenes CEO coaching journeys, therefore, begin by mapping organizations’ terrain – spotlighting what’s working and what remains under construction. For example, we evaluate current benches and talent programs through employee surveys, interviews, and observation. Empowerment: what makes teams tick? Where might better communications or conflict resolution practices relieve tensions stifling innovations? We get a bead on development priorities from these pointers.

 

We also conduct technology audits since outdated systems gate progress regardless of strategic brilliance. Lastly, extensive visioning exercises pressure test planned offerings. Will target customers truly embrace and pay for them? Identifying disjointed links between ambitious KPIs and operations builds targeted coaching agendas custom-fitted to address root causes rather than just fixing surface symptoms.

 

While coaching agendas are customized based on companies' biggest opportunities, impact areas often include:

Strategic Planning:

I facilitate interactive sessions clarifying 12-month objectives across categories as new markets entered, revenue goals, hiring needs, product launches, etc. Visions get translated into actionable quarterly deliverables.

Leadership Development:

Through assessments, observations, and advising, I spotlight management strengths warranting nurture along with areas needing bolstering, like conflict resolution, change management, etc. Leadership deepens.

Talent Optimization:

Analyzing current benches and anticipated needs given goals, we blueprint talent acquisition and optimization roadmaps - recruiting processes, training programs, compensation planning, etc.

Accountability & Progress Tracking:

Using cadence meetings and frames I provide, we maintain clear sightlines on priorities amidst the chaos. Goal progress gets reviewed in real time and adjusted accordingly. No ball gets dropped.

 

Outside the corporate bubble, I spot obstacles and hand CEOs the map to shortcut their path to victory. Let's connect to unlock the next level for your executive team and the company at large.

FAQs

How long are the workshops?

Most workshops run as half-day or full-day sessions. For deeper skill-building, I also design multi-session programs spread over several weeks. Your choice hinges on what you want to achieve and who is free to help.

Do you provide support after the class finishes?

You bet. I can pair workshops with ongoing coaching to make sure the skills stick. Most folks kick things off with a group workshop before transitioning into one-on-one coaching for their managers and top performers.

How can you pick the right training for your people?

Kick things off by talking. We will talk about your hurdles, what you want to achieve, and how your group works together. From there, I'll recommend the workshop or combination producing the best return for your investment.

 

Who are your people, and what does success look like for them? We'll design a workshop fitting your business, your people, and your timeline. Send a message to book your first strategy session for free.
