 Imagine if you will... people working together in a positive

 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. < Back to top
 Self Esteem and the Six-Second SecretChallenge: 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! < Back to top

                  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. < Back to top
 The Art of Positive Parent Teacher ConferencesChallenge: 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! < Back to top

                  “Teacher Guarantee”, Vicki leads teachers through 
                  the ten things every master teacher should be doing to be able
