This workshop will give participants a refresher on basic writing concepts (such as spelling, grammar, and punctuation), and an overview of the most common business documents (such as proposals, reports, and agendas), giving you that extra edge in the workplace.
Communication Strategies	For the better part of every day, we are communicating to and with others, whether it's the speech you deliver in the boardroom, or the level of attention you give your partner when they are talking to you, it all means something. This workshop will help participants understand the different methods of communication and how to make the most of each of them.

Presentation Skills	Many studies have found that public speaking is the number one fear amongst most people, outranking flying, snakes, insects, and even death. This workshop will give participants some presentation skills that will make speaking in public less terrifying and more enjoyable. Topics that participants can look forward to include: creating a compelling program, using various types of visual aids, and engaging the audience.
Proposal Writing	A good proposal doesn't just outline what product or service you would like to create or deliver. It does so in such a way that the reader feels it is the only logical choice. This course will take participants through each step of the proposal writing process, from understanding why they are writing a proposal; to gathering information; to writing and proofreading; through to creating the final, professional product.
Selection Criterial and Resumes	Are you new to selection criteria and not sure if what you have written will work for you? Have you written statements to selection criteria before and not been short listed for interview? Selection criteria are the skills, attributes, experience and education that the employer has defined as being essential or desirable for satisfying the requirements of the job. This workshop will assist you to unlock your talent and potential.

 

Customer Service
Customer Service	Each and every one of us serves customers, externally and / or internally. Maybe you're on the frontline of a company, serving the people who buy your products. Perhaps you're an accountant, serving the employees by producing their pay cheques and keeping the company running. Or maybe you're a company owner, serving your staff and your customers. This workshop will look at all types of customers and how we can serve them better and improve ourselves in the process.
Sales Fundamentals	Although the definition of a sale is simple enough, the process of turning someone into a buyer can be very complex. This workshop will give participants a basic sales process, plus some basic sales tools, that they can use to seal the deal, no matter what the size of the sale.

 

Motivating People
Coaching and Mentoring	This workshop focuses on how to better coach your employees to higher performance. Coaching is a process of relationship building and setting goals. How well you coach, relates directly to how well you are able to foster a great working relationship with your employees through understanding them and strategic goal setting.
Change Management	Change is a constant in many of our lives. All around us, technologies, processes, people, ideas, and methods often change, affecting the way we perform daily tasks and live our lives. This workshop will give any leader tools to implement changes more smoothly and to have those changes better accepted. This workshop will also give all participants an understanding of how change is implemented and some tools for managing their reactions to change.

Co aching takes the form of a discussion about the process, question types, your responses and can include role playing interview responses. This program offers highly practical interview support. Find out first hand how to present yourself and frame your answers for maximum scores and impact.
Motivating Employees	When you think of staff motivation, many things may come to mind: more money, a bigger office, a promotion, or a better quality of life. The truth is, no matter what we offer people, true motivation must come from within. This workshop will give participants several types of tools to become a great motivator, including goal setting and influencing skills. Participants will also learn about five of the most popular motivational models, and how to bring them together to create a custom program.
Teamwork and Team Building	For most of us, teamwork is a part of everyday life. Whether it's at home, in the community, or at work, we are often expected to be a functional part of a performing team. This workshop will encourage participants to explore the different aspects of a team, as well as ways that they can become a top-notch team performer.
Workplace Diversity	With the world becoming more mobile and diverse, diversity has taken on a new importance in the workplace. This workshop will help participants understand what diversity is all about, and how they can help create a more diverse world at work and at home.

 

Management

This workshop will give administrative assistants tools that will make them the person that the office can't live without. Experienced administrative assistants will learn new tools that will make them more efficient and valuable than ever.
Human Resource Management	In recent years, tasks that were originally thought to "belong" to the human resources department have become a part of many managers' job descriptions. This workshop will give managers the basic tools to handle numerous human resources situations such as interviewing, orientation, safety, harassment, discrimination, violence, discipline, and termination.
Leadership and Influence	There is a major difference between the people who lead our world and Leaders. What separates the good from the great? This workshop will explore several different types of leadership theories and show participants how to get on the path to great leadership.
Lean Six Sigma	Henry Ford advocated Lean ideas in the 1920's, and Sakichi Toyoda (the founder of Toyota) developed some of the basic principles of Lean, which were published in 1935, five years after his death. This course will provide an introduction to this way of thinking that has changed so many corporations in the world. You will understand how to start your company on the journey to becoming lean - more efficient, less wasteful, and more flexible.
Measuring Results from Training	Although we all know that training can have many amazing benefits, sometimes it can be hard to prove those benefits and attach a dollar value to training. Some topics, like sales training or time management, might have direct, tangible benefits. Other topics, like communication or leadership, might have benefits that you can't put a dollar value on. In this course, we will learn about the different ways to evaluate training progress, and how to use those results to demonstrate the results that training brings.
Project Management	In the past few decades, organisations have discovered something incredible: the principles that have been used to create enormous successes in large projects can be applied to projects of any size to create amazing success. As a result, many employees are expected to understand project management techniques and how to apply them to projects of any size. This workshop will give participants an overview of the entire project management process, as well as key project management tools that they can use every day.
Supervising Others	Supervising others can be a tough job. Between managing your own time and projects, helping your team members solve problems and complete tasks, and helping other supervisors, your day can fill up before you know it.

 

Individual Performance
Assertiveness and Self Confidence	Self confidence and assertiveness are two skills that are crucial for success in business and life. This workshop will give participants an understanding of what assertiveness and self-confidence each mean (in general and to themselves personally) and how to develop those skills in their day-to-day lives.
Conflict Resolution	Wherever two or more people come together, there is bound to be conflict. This course will give participants a seven-step conflict resolution process that they can use and modify to resolve conflict disputes of any size. Participants will also learn crucial conflict management skills, including dealing with anger and using the Agreement Frame.
Creative Problem Solving	We all solve problems of every size every day. This workshop will give participants some processes and tools to make their problem solving effective and creative, and to help them create win-win situations.
Facilitation Skills	Facilitation is often referred to as the new cornerstone of management philosophy. With its focus on fairness and creating an easy decision making process, facilitation can help any organisation make better decisions. This workshop will give participants an understanding of what facilitation is all about, as well as some tools that they can use to facilitate small meetings.
Interpersonal Skills	We've all met that dynamic, charismatic person that just has a way with others and has a way of being remembered. This workshop will help participants work towards being that unforgettable person by providing communication skills, negotiation techniques, tips on making an impact, and advice on networking and starting conversations.
Negotiation Skills	Although people often think of boardrooms, suits, and million dollar deals when they hear the word "negotiation," the truth is that we negotiate all the time. These are all situations that involve negotiating! This workshop will give participants an understanding of the phases of negotiation, tools to use during a negotiation, and ways to build win-win solutions for all those involved.
Personal Productivity	Most people find that they wish they had more time in a day. This workshop will show participants how to organise their lives and find those hidden moments. Participants will learn how to establish routines, set goals, create an efficient environment, and use time-honoured planning and organisational tools to maximise their personal productivity.
Public Speaking	Forget small spaces, darkness, and spiders - standing up in front of a crowd and talking is far more terrifying for most people. However, mastering this fear and getting comfortable speaking in public can be of great benefit to your career. This workshop will give participants some basic public speaking skills, including in-depth information on developing an engaging program and delivering their presentation with power.
Time Management	Personal time management skills are essential for professional success in any workplace. Those able to successfully implement time management strategies are able to control their workload rather than spend each day in a frenzy of activity reacting to crisis after crisis - stress declines and personal productivity soars! These highly effective individuals are able to focus on the tasks with the greatest impact to them and their organisation.

 

Productivity
Anger Management	Anger can be an incredibly damaging force, costing people their jobs, personal relationships, and even their lives when it gets out of hand. However, since everyone experiences anger, it is important to have constructive approaches to manage it effectively. This workshop will help teach participants how to identify their anger triggers and what to do when they get angry.
Stress Management	Positive and negative stress is a constant influence on all of our lives. The trick is to maximise the positive stress and to minimise the negative stress.
