For the first time in the history of the industralized world, there are 4 generations working side by side in the workplace. Each generation walks to its own beat and there are noticeable differences between each as it pertains to work ethics, values, expectations and lifestyle preferences. Knowing and understanding the workplace and lifestyle preferences of the Traditionalists, Baby Boomers, Gen Xers and Gen Yers can facilitate more effective interviewing and hiring practices. Knowing and accommodating their preferences can also lead to higher employee retention and productivity.
75-80% of all opportunities that come our way in life are found through networking.

Learning really just begins when we leave the classroom and take up the world as our stage. From Malcolm Gladwell's work in 'Outliers' to understanding the basics of how we learn visually, auditorily and kinesthetically, this humourous presentation will have you expanding your resources and honing your interpersonal relationships with ease.

“Laughter is therapeutic, humour is individualistic.”
If you could bring a smile to everyone’s face in your company wouldn’t you want to? If ever there was a time when employees needed a bit of levity in their work lives it is now. Training dollars have been cut, expense accounts are being restrained, yet your staff are still nervous, possibly stressed and may need some attention.
I have designed a Humour in the Workplace presentation that can be offered as a Keynote or Lunch and Learn session. Offering this in your workplace can provide a ways and means to lighten up the atmosphere of any office, improve attitudes, and ergo, increase the productivity and happiness quotient of every employee!
Presentation Outline:
We don’t always have a lot of choices in life but one thing that’s for sure, we do have the choice to look at the lighter side of life, or not. You’ll learn what humour is all about, tips on sharing humour and the use of humour at work…like how to best utilize a rubber chicken in your department or company. You’ll learn about Laughter Yoga, practice laughing and see how part of work life balance is consciously bringing positive elements of life into your reality.

Topping Up Your Communication
You get hired for your IQ, you get promoted for your EQ !
Emotional Intelligence addresses the emotional, personal, social and survival dimensions of intelligence. These factors increase our ability to be more successful in dealing with environmental surroundings.
They can help to predict success. EQ is concerned with understanding oneself and others, relating to people, and to adapting to and coping with our immediate surroundings.
WHAT EQ-I CAN DO FOR YOUR WORKPLACE
EQ-i is the tool that measures emotional intelligence. There are five developmental areas that EQ-i addresses in the workplace:
- Career Development
- Organizational Change
- Program Development
- Team Development
- Individual Development
EQ-i BENEFITS
Increase organizational efficiency Improve employees’ self-understanding and personal development Improve basic personal and interpersonal skills Increase confidence, become more goal oriented = increased revenue
Unlike IQ which is relatively stable throughout one’s life, EQ can be improved upon and honed regularly throughout one’s growth.
Colleen is a certified EQ-i facilitator and welcomes the opportunity to work with you and/or your company on identifying your low, average and high EI components and ways to improve them.
