Succeeding in a High Change Environment
Most organizations experiencing a high change environment are not prepared for, nor do they acknowledge the predictable "change reaction”. Remember Newton’s key principle?

Need A Little R&R?
Rejuvenation & Revitalization
The fall season is ideal for strategic planning programs and corporate retreats. Retreats provide the perfect getaway, allowing executives and board members an environment away from office pressure, but an opportunity to roll-up their shirt sleeves in a productive environment. While having a little fun, building camaraderie, and making new connections are important aspects, don’t overlook the importance of planning a focused agenda and a constructive meeting. Key Reminders: identify clear objectives, pinpoint key issues, focus on the real work (strategic plan, critical goals, vision, etc.), assign homework prior to the retreat, designate a scribe to track commitments and responsibilities, consider outside help (event planner, facilitator, chef, etc.), create a safe environment for decision making and problem solving discussions.
Several clients from Germany to Canada, from Chicago to Sedona, from Brazil to Phoenix have laid the groundwork for their planning processes. Thank you GEA Farm Technologies, Cap Wulf and the ACCA Mix Group, and SouthSuburban Pads for your commitment to your organizations' vision and values.
InitiativeOne iOne Online:
Delivering Leadership Concepts Across Your Organization
InitiativeOne Online Leadership Training Program (iOne Online) is the next step in the evolution of leadership training and culture change within your business. Because there has been an overwhelming demand to extend the InitiativeOne concepts across entire organizations, iOne Online was created as a convenient and cost effective way to do so.

In four separate modules, your entire team participates in a condensed version of our leadership training process – not as a replacement, but rather as an enhancement to support the cultural change needed across many organizations today. ...more
