The Challenge Series
If We're Going to Win This Race, We
Need to Run in the Same Direction!

environment, sharing ideas, taking risks, supporting one another,
resolving conflicts face to face, and treating others with dignity
and respect. Does this sound like the Twilight Zone? If so,
this information-packed, dynamic presentation is for you! Positive
attitudes and a commitment to cooperation are essential to the
success of any team -- at work or at home. Excellent keynote

Life Would Be Easy If It Weren't for Other
People!
Challenge: Dealing With Difficult People
Life is full of difficult people, situations and demands, but
we never quite learn to live with them. This fast-paced, entertaining
session explores the differences between men and women, touches
on marriage and parenting, and then moves into the workplace
describing the whiner, tattler, gossiper, complainer, and the
employee who says, "That's not my job". Though humorous
and motivational, this presentation is full of information and
techniques that can be applied immediately to home and work
to help people build better relationships, open lines of communication,
and enjoy life a little bit more.

Self Esteem and the Six-Second Secret
Challenge: Developing a Personal Foundation
for Student Success
Self esteem is much more than simply feeling good about oneself.
People with high self esteem are accountable for their own actions,
accept responsibility for their performance, behavior and attitudes,
and treat others with dignity and respect. One of the most popular
presentations within the Challenge Series, the profoundly simple
“six-second secret” can dramatically impact a teacher’s
day-to-day communication patterns that characterize their classrooms.
Learn the powerful three-step approach that can change any student’s
difficult behavior into a WINNING ATTITUDE!

Everybody Thinks They Can Do My Job,
But Nobody Wants It!
Challenge: Successful, Effective Leadership
Successful managers must address the need for better customer
service, the demand for higher quality and the cry for consistent
leadership. This workshop is designed to empower business managers
in the vital areas of building a successful team, conflict resolution,
interpersonal communication skills, employee morale, a winning
attitude, burnout, self esteem in the workplace and effective
performance appraisals.

The Art of Positive Parent Teacher Conferences
Challenge: Better Communication Between
Teachers and Parents
Many of us as teachers never took college courses on communicating
with parents. And as many teachers know, your first difficult
parent conference can be enough to scare you into never wanting
to do one again. In this insightful presentation, Vicki shares
techniques to empower teachers to conduct positive and beneficial
conferences with any parent they may come in contact with. Learn
how to take control of every conference and make it become a
WINNING situation!
