What Fortune 100 Leaders Know That You Don’t
Strong leaders help their organizations navigate change. They anticipate risks, communicate clearly, and adjust course before problems grow.
In this interactive session, Tammy explores nine characteristics of effective leaders and how to put them into practice. Topics include clear communication, decisive action planning, thoughtful transparency, and helping teams learn from setbacks.
Participants leave with tools to recognize the habits, attitudes, beliefs, and expectations that shape their leadership—and identify where a different approach could improve their results.
Leading Through Crisis
When problems stay hidden and communication breaks down, leaders can miss the warning signs of a crisis. Recognizing those signs—and being willing to address them—helps teams respond before problems grow.
Drawing on her work with executives and teams, Tammy examines how leaders can surface difficult issues, communicate under pressure, and move the conversation toward solutions.
In this interactive workshop, you will:
- Recognize warning signs that need your attention.
- Examine how your communication habits and core values influence decisions under pressure.
- Practice asking questions that bring hidden problems into the open.
- Identify your role in helping the team respond and move forward.
Communication Breakdown to Breakthrough
A conversation starts well, then takes an unexpected turn. You leave wondering, “How did this happen?” Whether it happens in a meeting, over the phone, or in an email, a communication breakdown can leave people frustrated and work at a standstill.
In this interactive workshop, Tammy introduces four practical steps to help you recognize where communication breaks down and get the conversation moving again.
You will learn to:
- Identify what effective communication looks like.
- Apply four keys to a successful interaction.
- Ask questions that help uncover the source of a misunderstanding.
- Create a strategy for moving the conversation forward.
Breaking Down Silos, Building Up People
Silos can form in organizations of any size. When teams stop sharing information and working together, decisions slow down and opportunities get missed.
Tammy examines three consequences of working in silos: weakened trust, broken communication, and complacency. Participants explore what keeps those barriers in place and how to build stronger connections across the organization.
In this interactive workshop, you will:
- Shift your focus from problems to solutions.
- Recognize opportunities to improve how teams work together.
- Create a strategy to break down the barriers that sustain silos.
- Design a communication action plan that connects management and frontline teams.
Turning Problem Employees Around
Persistent performance issues affect the whole team. Missed deadlines, incomplete work, and repeated excuses leave leaders spending more time managing problems than moving the team forward.
When these patterns go unaddressed, they can damage working relationships, affect customers and vendors, and undermine the team’s goals.
In this interactive workshop, Tammy guides participants through real-life scenarios to examine difficult behavior, understand its impact, and decide how to address it.
Leave with a plan for supporting improved performance while protecting your time, energy, and the team’s progress.
Professional Energy Process
Some situations leave you ready to act. Others leave you frustrated and drained. The Professional Energy Process (PEP) helps you recognize how your reactions affect the energy and attention you bring to your work.
Using situations that did not turn out as you hoped, you will examine what you were thinking and feeling, the beliefs behind your response, and where your attention went.
This interactive workshop gives you a process for noticing habitual reactions and choosing a more deliberate response. The focus is on directing your energy toward actions that help you move forward.
Mindset Matters
The assumptions you bring to a challenge influence which options you see and which ones you dismiss. Familiar ways of thinking can keep you in your comfort zone, even when a different approach could lead to better results.
Mindset Matters explores how attitudes, avoidance, and comfort zones shape your decisions and your response to change.
In this interactive workshop, you will examine those patterns, challenge assumptions that hold you back, and consider opportunities you may have overlooked.
