Here’s the thing. Change is inevitable. Trying to stop change is like trying to stop the ocean waves from rolling in or stopping the wind from blowing. So many programs want to teach you about ‘change management’. The truth is, we cannot manage change. But we can manage ourselves within change. We can stop the drama, fear, worry and storytelling that exaggerates change and blocks us from finding real solutions and moving on. Sometimes, we over complicate what is ultimately quite simple. In Why Change Eats Solutions for Breakfast, Kris will present how individuals and leaders can move through life, work and organizational transitions with a simple approach.
- Tell the truth
- Define what the truth means
- Ask yourself: So now what?
Kris’ has over 19 years of experience leading large and small teams and has plenty of examples of how organizations, teams and individuals have completely botched ‘change management’. Using her examples, simple tools and applying them to the challenges you may be going through is the perfect way to help you add some valuable new tools to your life and organizational tool belt!
Change Your Think!
Managing other people can be, well, interesting to say the least. As managers we are charged with maximizing our employees’ performance, so that our organization flourishes and achieves outlined goals. However, human beings don’t fit into molds. They don’t do what most of the business models say they will do. So, as managers we are left to figure out how to effectively deal with unique challenges on a daily basis, as it relates to leading and managing others. In her book Change Your Think, Kris outlines an Unexpected Way to Think about Managing People. Using her practical and simple approach, hundreds of managers have found much sought after peace and less stress in their work rel
ationships. Kris presents a clear methodology that can be used to help leaders with:
- Communication
- Coaching
- Accountability
Using The Change Your Think approach, managers will be more effective, address performance challenges more readily and directly and communicate goals and expectations more clearly. Drawing from her 19 years of leadership experience, Kris applies her coaching expertise, dynamic speaking and sense of humor to put the daily challenges that managers in the rear view mirror! |
Communications is an Inside Job!
 |
“If other people would just change, then I will be (insert here; happier, more successful, less stressed out, more effective, etc.).” This is one of the most common refrains Kris hears from her clients. The truth is, other people don’t change because we want them to. AND how we communicate with as individuals in our lives and in our work has a direct impact on the results we are getting in our relationships. Most of the time, however, we blame other people for the challenges we have. What if instead we started with us and see what happens. In her presentation “Communication is an Inside Job”, Kris Plachy will cover a very clear process for individuals, leaders, parents or teachers to follow to ensure that they are properly communicating to be heard, rather than just to speak.
In this presentation Kris will cover:
- How to ensure you are communicating what you want others to hear.
- How you are communicating, even if you aren’t speaking
- How you can determine what to say, before you say it.
Most people speak to say something, very few people speak to be heard. Communication is an Inside Job will help participants have a new perspective on communication and the impact they may (not even realize) they are having!
