You Cannot Not Communicate - (Effective Communication Skills)

Everyday, in every situation that involves another person, communication takes place. We recognize it most readily when words are used. Besides the words we choose and use, messages are always being sent. The way you dress, your body language, your self-image, all send messages. Are the messages received the same ones we think we are sending? Take a lighthearted look at how effective communication skills affect the way we communicate. See how our communication skills seminar can help you communicate with others more effectively, better solve problems, and improve "Attitudes!"

The company becomes a source of true values fulfillment for both managers and employees. The bottom line: an emotional commitment by managers and employees to their work.


Team Building that Works "TOGETHER" - (Workshop)

The success and profitability of an entire organization depends on the effectiveness of each employee. Individually, employees make an impact on productivity, however, when a cohesive team spirit exists, the result of team effort far exceeds the sum of individual output.

When Dreams Become Reality - (Keynote or Workshop)
The key to success is to have goals. That success can be measured in many ways. Goals that clearly define what it is you want, and what actions must be taken to achieve those goals. This program serves as an excellent resource to create individual, team and department goals that everyone can support.


Mastering Presentation Skills - (Workshop)

Two minutes of solid performance in front of the "right" group of people can promote your career more rapidly than two years of solid performance behind a desk. The ability to put the spotlight on yourself through speaking is a magnificent measure of credibility. If you speak well, there is an assumption (by most people) that you do all things well.
BRC seminars provide specific techniques for overcoming "stage fright," determining speech content, mastering verbal delivery, coordinating support media, and much more to put you on stage with a dynamic presentation.


Personal Stress Management - (Workshop)
Duties! Responsibilities! Pressure! Put that stress in a healthy perspective through seminars that encourage everyone to reflect and discuss the realities of the "Daily grind" Learn how to work and deal with difficult people. (Not you, other people).


Six Thinking Hats - (Workshop)

Six Thinking Hats is a world-renowned course developed by Dr. Edward de Bono that will eliminate unproductive meetings and help individuals organize and maximize their thinking, making problem solving and decision making easier, faster and more effective. Six Thinking Hats teaches you to separate emotion from facts, the positive from the negative, and critical thinking from creative thinking.


This program will provide your team with skills and tools that can be applied immediately after attending the course. Learn how separating team thinking into six distinct categories, each identified by its own colored "thinking hat" icon, leads teams to target their goals, keep focused, quit arguing, save time, reduce risks, and get results.


Motivating Employees and Others - (Workshop)
Can you really motivate another person, or does that person choose to be motivated? Each of us is moved by different "things," different inspirations. Managers and supervisors can create the environment and the communication to increase everyone's productivity. BRC seminars illustrate the skills necessary to create the atmosphere that really moves people and gives tthem a sense of empowerment.

 

About This Speaker

 

No Warm and Fuzzy Message from Jeff


Here's a guy who trained West Point cadets during his active tour of duty as a paratrooper with the U.S. Army's 82nd Airborne Division.


Today, he presents to audiences in the U.S. and abroad on how to be leaders, communicate and pull together as a team. His keynotes, capnotes, seminars and workshops move people to act - like a good kick in the pants. Just ask the companies and trade associations that have hired him.


No wonder Jeff's tagline is:
"Speaking and Training with Attitude!"


Now only two questions remain:
1. What date would you like him to present to your group?
2. Why would someone jump out of a perfectly good airplane?

 

What Clients Are Saying

 

He reminds me of a slimmer version of Meat Loaf on the live stage.
