Productivity-boosting training workshops and coaching

In addition to individual and group coaching, Colby offers six customizable workshops designed not only to shift an individual’s consciousness, but also the organization’s collective environment. Participants walk away with a set of seemingly small, easy-to-remember skills that add up to a platform for bringing about big impact in the workplace.

The training workshops capture participants' imagination and commitment so that they learn through experiential activities, humor and spectacle. Participants subsequently learn to find their accountability, build trust, and take aligned action in even the most tense, complicated relationships.

The result: participants learn how to proactively pursue their individual best while engaging co-workers to bring out their collective best.

 

Become a star by owning mistakes

Our ability to influence people and outcomes is tied to trust. When a promise or commitment lacks follow-through, lack of accountability can destroy trust and damages team dynamics. This pain-free method teaches participants to take accountability and acknowledge mistakes without excuse-making, shaming or blaming others—restoring trust so teams flourish.  

 

Conduct successful ‘elephant in the room’ conversations

Employees are often afraid of acknowledging awkward dynamics impacting productivity and effectiveness because of implied repercussions. This simple step by step method reveals how the “Elephant in the Room” can successfully be addressed by building a sense of safety between parties that make a successful exchange.

 

The power of acknowledgment to build high-functioning teams

Employees thrive and loyalty peaks when individual contributions are seen and acknowledged; however, many managers and team-leads fall short of facilitating their charges to feel truly seen or appreciated. Just as there is a challenge giving negative feedback, there is a bigger challenge giving positive feedback that celebrates and inspires workers to engage more. Colby uses a three-step exercise that walks participants through a simple acknowledgement process that motivates, inspires productivity, and enables all team members to be more in tune with each other.

 
 
 

Find your “gut”: smart and fast decision making

What if you could access a larger field of information that gives you more accurate information than the simple logic of weighing pros and cons? Overcome ‘analysis paralysis’ and decision-stalling tactics by teaching participants how to access the wisdom within their own bodies to reap the benefits of making decisions informed by deeper awareness.

 

A formula for coaching “anyone”

How do managers, mentors and team leads help move someone forward without being perceived as ‘critical’, a ‘nag’ or a ‘helicopter’? This workshop features an easy Five-Step Sequence to assist others to drop defensiveness and guides them towards consistent goal-oriented action.

 

Online Powerful Presenting
