DISCOVERING RELATIONAL LEADERSHIP
There are 4 different personality types: dominant, inspiring, supportive, and cautious. When we start to understand who we are and how we are motivated, it greatly impacts our relationship with ourselves and others. Bridgett Krause will take this concept and relate it to your employees, vendors, sponsors, and executive team in a fun light-hearted manner that will keep them engaged, laughing, and learning. This workshop will help attendees relate to their co-workers, their customers, their families, and themselves at a new and elevated level. Understanding what drives certain personality types to want details versus speed or procedures versus fun, is a true game changer in customer service. Your attendees will leave with a sense of hope and respect for the individuals in their life who are different and yet complimentary to them. They will also feel inspired to live in their true gifts and to acknowledge and be aware of where they may face challenges. To grow our organization, we must grow our people and personality discoveries are one of the greatest lessons for impacting not only the workplace, but the home life and family of an individual. We look forward to adding value to your team and helping them feel that who they are makes a difference!
