Thinking on Your Feet

Collaborate Like an Improv Comedian

The Weapons of Influence
If you are in sales or marketing, you need to know the top ways you can inspire prospects to give you their time and commitment to buy. Learn how to use the social forces already at work to sway opinions your way and get people’s attention.
One-two Punch of Persuasion: Power and Likeability
Do people like you at work, but don’t take you seriously? Or perhaps people take you seriously, but don’t invite you into the inner circle where decisions are made? You could have an imbalance of perceived power and likeability. Learn why these traits are important and how to increase your levels of each.
Coaching and Giving Feedback
New thinking on feedback says that being “radically transparent” and negative does NOT drive change in your organization. Humans respond better to what Marcus Buckingham (or Good to Great) recommends as a formula for giving feedback: What’s going well right now? What has worked in the past? How can you apply that to the future? This workshop teaches the latest thinking on coaching and giving feedback and has managers practice in class.
“Cynthia’s ability to fine-tune good speakers into great speakers is phenomenal. Before working with her, I never imagined how strong an impact a speaking coach could have on a presentation. I and several people on my team have worked with Cynthia. Whenever I’m asked who can provide great public speaking coaching, Cynthia is my first recommendation.”
— Donna Wilkins, Founder and CEO of Charity Dynamics
“It was a pleasure having you lead us in teamwork and communication exercises. I am amazed that even with a short period of time, you could deliver such important lessons to the entire team. Everyone participated, understood the messages, and had a blast! I am certainly more tuned in to the level of complexity in our workplace, how many balls we’re all juggling, little things I can say and do to support my colleagues, and what I can do to help make things run more easily. And, I’m looking forward to next time!”
— Kimarie Wolf, Marketing Programs Manager, Planar
