The Resilient Energy Connection: How to Get It, Keep It, and Stop Giving It Away
Innovation, productivity, service and bottom-line profits are the result of people: solid, talented, engaged and committed employees. Even as some sectors of the economy slow down, the reality is that losing valuable, industry-trained people has long-term implications, particularly if your star performers go to the competition! In this interactive program, you’ll learn that star performers aren't always looking for more money, but rather career growth, learning and development, exciting work, meaningful work, making a difference, and the chance to make a contribution on a team. And, of course, a good manager who makes the difference in winning the talent war. This program is based on the research of colleague, Dr. Beverly Kaye, the work of her organization, Career Systems International (CSI), as well as the work Eileen has done for over 20 years with a wide variety of organizations. Beverly is co-author of Love’Em or Lose’Em, a leading expert on employee retention and founder/president of CSI. The program can include appropriate CSI materials, some of them being an in-depth workbook, the book Love’Em or Lose’Em, survey materials, as well as an opportunity for continued training through the staff of CSI. The program is suitable for a keynote to half-day.
Work for a Living and Still Be Free to Live: The Secret for a Resilient Life
Wouldn’t it be great if leadership came in pill form—if emotion stayed out of work—and we could balance our lives on a ledger sheet? Dream on. In the world of business, the intangibles drive the tangibles. Being able to connect with the hearts and minds of colleagues and customers has never been more important. Without connection, customers don’t give us their time and employees don’t give us their talent. In times of profound, rapid change, it is not enough to engage the mind; one must also tap into the heart and the spirit. At the core of "engaging the spirit" is meaningful conversation. Eileen will provide examples and exercises to teach you not only how to have meaningful interactions with others, but how to hold the mirror up to yourself. Discover the three "Ss" of spirited leadership: staying power, stamina and soulfulness.

There's something here for everyone-laughter and tears all flow from the same well.
