Solution Focused Greatness

How to amplify collaboration, resilience, and positivity in others

Sick of people fixating on problems, focusing on issues beyond their control, pointing fingers, and casting blame? Do you feel like you’re constantly firefighting a revolving door that churns negativity?

Isn’t it more productive to identify solutions and, in turn, fuel connection, awaken creativity, and elevate appreciation? And what if you weren’t the only one doing it?

Here’s the secret … everyone has greatness. They just don’t all believe it.

People want to do well and have a desire to contribute. What if we see their greatness even when they’re not operating at their very best? How might you lead differently? How might you show up with greater curiosity? How might you do less telling and do more asking to co-create possibilities?

When you embrace the belief that people are already greatness^TM, it acts as a wedge in that negativity revolving door. You don’t lose hope, your best people, and your most innovative ideas.

This session will empower you to leverage the 5 most resourceful questions (that you’re not currently asking) to access the solution to any problem.

Learning Outcomes:

Practice the 5 most effective, solution-focused coaching questions that address negativity, gossip, and a problem-fixated mindset

Increase your team’s hopefulness, resiliency, and well-being through easy to implement tactics

Create collaborative and innovative solutions – even when no easy answers seem to exist

Just For You …

Each session is customized to you
Each client is treated as the most important person
Each audience has a specific need to honor
Each industry has its own insights and data to capitalize on
Each presentation is prepared with an anthropological approach
Each event has hidden shiny stars that need to be uncovered and amplified

Why? Because you are greatness, and it’s our unwavering, indisputable, undeniable promise (to the point where we want you to call our mothers if we don’t deliver) to show it to you with each and every presentation.

"Sarah’s positivity, high energy and inventive approach to large-group learning kicked our summer into high gear through her dynamic presentation. Sarah provided practical lessons in how to increase employee engagement in the workplace and not only did Sarah involve members in the room, she made a powerful impact and engaged members who attended via webcast. Sarah brings insight and solutions regarding today’s HR issues and she is truly someone you will want to have to speak at your next event."

"Our managers received huge value from Sarah’s presentation. For example, ‘Loved her energy and the subject matter was very interesting. Her presentation caused me to rethink some past actions. If I had had her 5 question tools at the start of my management career, I think things would have turned out better.’ She will be back!"
