Ken Hartley- Leadership Illusions

Have you been communicating with the people around you only to find they misunderstand or misinterpret what you say or worse yet-- they apparently don't hear you at all? Lack of authentic communication in the workplace causes unnecessary drama and stifles productivity. I empower individuals to understand who they are as well as the people around them. The result is better communication, more authentic relationships, and ultimately improved productivity.

Participants will learn how:
- To understand before trying to be understood
- To overcome the enemy of assumption
- To listen to what others are truly saying.
- They’re communicating when they’re not talking.
- To understand the 4 basic temperaments
- How to speak the 4 basic languages of each temperament
- To speak and listen reflectively
- Specific applications can be applied and implemented immediately for improved connections.

Expect this presentation to be humorous, entertaining, full of "a-ha moments", and transformational. Many participants leave this presentation saying, "FINALLY! I understand why they are the way they are," and are able to connect with other individuals like never before.
