What does Wayne talk about?

Wayne is happy to tailor keynotes and workshops to suit his client’s objectives and desired outcomes, however some of his most popular presentations include:

Catch the Change Virus!

Are you sick and tired of the old “What’s our vision”, “Let’s create a Mission Statement” – “get everyone in a room for a day and change the organisation” stuff?

  1. It rarely works;
  2. If it does work it only works on a few people;
  3. And if it does work on a few people, it doesn’t last;
  4. It’s old hat and people will often give you what you want to hear rather than change their hearts and minds.

Wayne has a unique way of looking at change and is able to help you understand how to make effective change with a real impact.

“Change cannot be forced or imposed – it has to grow from the inside out”.

“Change happens like a virus – spreading passion, enthusiasm, commitment and drive as it goes”.

Find out:

  • how you can “catch” change virus and how to give it others;
  • how the change mindset is infectious;
  • how to help the virus to spread;
  • how to fight through “change immunity” and;
  • how keep the virus spreading even you are feeling better!

A fun, fast, fascinating and fantastic session on change and how to “Catch the Change Virus”!

 

The Performance Puzzle!

Performance is a Puzzle. People, systems, structures, money, facilities, equipment, technology, management, change, politics – we all know what the pieces are – but how do we put them together and complete the Performance Puzzle?

Wayne’s “Performance Puzzle” session is a step-by-step look at how all the pieces come together to create the right Performance Environment.

“If you’re puzzled about your performance…imagine what your clients think?”

Learn:

  • how you can piece together the different pieces of performance and join them together to get an enhanced performance;
  • how you can align the different elements of performance and get everyone heading in the one direction at the same time.

If you are serious about enhancing performance, “The Performance Puzzle” is for you.

Leader? What Leader?

Lots of people talk leadership – there are even Leading Leaders who talk about Leaders, Leading and Leadership.

Most leadership sessions focus on the traditional models of Leadership – the Churchill – Kennedy – Julius Caesar type of leadership – where one person takes the lead and everyone follows.

But what is it NOW? – and what will it be in the FUTURE?

Wayne’s takes a different angle on the modern leadership theme.

“The message today is how to learn to lead your own way – everyone leading in their own way, using their own unique gifts. Leadership is changing – single philosophy no longer applies – everyone can lead, in different ways, in different situations”.

The receptionist is leading the organisation when greeting clients or answering the phone; the factory worker is leading the organisation by making products; sales staff are leading the organisation when they meet with clients and provide service support – everyone can, and does lead in their own way.

Wayne calls this “Leading without Leading” – an effective and non-threatening way of teaching people to realise their potential by leading in a way that suits them.

No need to get your team jumping out of planes, abseiling face first off a mountain or spending a week being yelled at in the bush wearing jungle fatigues!

This session unleashes everyone’s leadership potential without leaving the safety and comfort of the training room or conference centre!
