The Drama Makers. The Complainers. The Gossips. The Back Stabbers. The Know-it-Alls. The Bullies. The Negative Nellies. The Victims. The Drainers.

LEAD FROM WHERE YOU ARE: HOW TO IMPACT, INFLUENCE AND CREATE MOMENTUM TO GET RESULTS

In this interactive session, Kim will outline strategies to Lead From Where You Are and discuss those qualities that create an epic leader.
COMMUNICATING COURAGEOUSLY: WHAT EPIC LEADERS KNOW ABOUT LEADING THEIR TEAM THROUGH CHANGE
Change is certain. But communicating change effectively is not. Often when dealing with change, communicating the change is where the breakdown occurs. A disconnect may occur between those who are pushing for change and everyone else. Resistance to change keeps people stuck, creates stress and stifles growth and productivity. And people resist what they don’t understand. For leaders to successfully navigate change, communication and engagement with those affected are critical in order to reduce drama, stress and misunderstanding. In this engaging, fun and highly interactive session, you will learn proven, easy to implement strategies on how to effectively communicate, connect and create the momentum needed for success when facing change – whether you are the one pushing for the change or the one having change “happen” to you.

No matter the challenge, Kim continues to reinvent herself, adjusting and adapting her recipe for a great life as life’s challenges require.
