At the end of the day, our very success hinges on relationships.
These relationships grow or die based on a skill too often we forget: CONVERSATION. How meaningful are yours?
The proliferation of cell phones and the glut of chat rooms show us what society yearns for: meaningful human connection, community, and the value of relationships.
The pace of change, the lure of dazzling technology, and the speed of life have created the opposite. The most human of all connections is conversation – an internal and external event that has become blurred. We’ve forgotten how to talk to each other – if in fact some of us ever knew. In many instances, we have never been taught how to listen. At the deepest level, we’ve probably never stopped long enough to even listen to ourselves.
And at times of crisis, these conversations become even more important. This presentation explores a model for understanding and growing the conversations we have with ourselves and with each other so that everyone becomes fully engaged in the work we are tasked to do. And you’ll also celebrate the power of humor to connect. Be prepared to think, laugh, and learn.
Watch Eileen talk about why e-mail and phone calls are a poor substitute for face to face meetings and scroll down for testimonials.
“I did not want another day to go by without sending you my sincerest thanks for a job well done at our association’s annual convention. As you know, the keynote speaker plays such an important role in a convention-setting the state for a positive experience for all in attendance. You were not only excellent to work with in advance but onsite you were prompt and easy to work with. The best part of all – YOU DELIVERED! Your message was on target, and our members are still raving about your presentation!”
