Description: Why do some people achieve massive results while others struggle or fail entirely? Based on her 35 years of impressive results leading corporate programs and teams, Teresa reveals the art of compelling others to action and achieving massive results while maintaining positive relationships.
In this presentation, Teresa leverages the format of a popular word game from our childhood. Audience members are immersed in an exercise that will demonstrate the power of precise language and action to generate desired outcomes more quickly.
From the beginning of her business career as a bill collector and in the many leadership roles she’s held, Teresa learned how the subtlest differences in the use of human language make the difference between someone taking action or doing nothing in response to a request. But there is a delicate balance required to compel people to action without alienating them. The art of striking this balance is what Teresa has used throughout her career to achieve extraordinary results with her teams and what she shares during this immersive keynote experience.
By employing specific language and holding people accountable while honoring human dignity, the real leader can achieve extraordinary results while forging caring relationships within their teams.

3 Cs of Collaboration “ROCKshop”
Workshops are boring. ROCKshops are FUN!
Great for: Technology Teams, Leadership Training, Operations Managers, Educator Training, Consulting Firms, Sales Teams
Description: Toxic communications can destroy relationships and derail business efforts. What are you doing to ensure your teams know how to prevent or diffuse hostility and move from combative to collaborative when tensions flare?
During this interactive workshop ROCKshop, Teresa helps your group to identify the specific challenges which are holding them back and work through the musical exercise to gain an understanding of how they can leverage the 3 Cs of Collaboration to resolve their specific issues.
Continuing to use the rock band as her inspiration, Teresa provides every attendee with a childhood music instrument. But this time, rather than everyone learning the same song, the group is broken into smaller ensembles to use the 3 Cs to form their band and learn to play a song together from the list provided.
As participants collaborate in groups applying the 3 Cs in their efforts, they practice using the Collaboration Playlist to build strong relationships and restore harmony where there is discord.
Participants will also be challenged to apply the 3 Cs to their most difficult relationships. Rather than have interactions with such individuals devolve into unproductive exchanges that just make matters worse, participants will learn how to redirect hostility and reconcile combative behavior.
