Managers in today's intensely competitive and global environment don't often have the luxury of time. Results must come quickly, and they must be consistent. Customers have to be satisfied, and owners must make a profit.

How to Build a Championship Team at Work is a unique management seminar that features in-depth activities, discussion and small group sessions tailored to include company-specific case studies. This seminar gives managers the tools, knowledge and a proven process for quickly and efficiently achieving organizational results. Using sports lessons from coaching legends like Vince Lombardi, Scotty Bowman, Pat Riley, and John Wooden - lessons that have been validated in the world of business - you'll learn how to:

• Dramatically increase the productivity and performance of your department
• Effectively focus, inspire and direct your entire work team toward common goals
• Gain well-deserved corporate recognition for the accomplishments of you and your team

How the Seminar Works

Be prepared for a high-impact and highly interactive seminar that brings with it the energy, excitement and fun of team sports. The seminar is divided into four "quarters," including how to:

• Create a winning game plan by tying individual assignments and actions to organizational goals
• Develop your players into a championship team by ensuring they have the skills and motivation to succeed
• Become a highly effective sideline manager by finding out when and how to maximize learning opportunities
• Analyze gametime by learning from your work teams successes and failures

Each quarter is further broken down into:

• A Coach's Corner: An instructor-led discussion that describes specific coaching lessons and how each lesson can effectively be transferred into bottom-line business results
• A Group Huddle: An examination of relevant case studies, conducted as a small-group activity, to help you learn how to implement each lesson in the work place
• Personal Action Planning: A personal activity in which you assess specific ways to improve your current management style to effectively focus, inspire and direct your work team to success
  

Unlike many seminars that offer good information but no practical means of applying the information back on the job, you'll leave with a specific action plan that you can implement on your first day back at work.
