Finding Value in Hidden Places

• Goodfinding: Using the Power of Positive Psychology to Enhance Workplace Wellness

The automatic tendency to focus on problems and incomplete tasks is a huge drain on mental, emotional and physical energy in the workplace. Expressing appreciation and gratitude enhance heart function, sleep quality, achievement and longevity, not to mention the natural benefits to teamwork and relationships in general. Goodfinding is an integrated set of tools and processes based on Positive Psychology that accomplish these outcomes and more.
 
• Financial Health, Emotional Wealth: Mastering the Economics of Emotional and Financial Wellness

In this presentation, you will learn highly effective skills to assess and increase your financial and emotional intelligence. Discover the basics of financial and emotional freedom and how they can lead to the fulfillment of your life purpose. The economics of emotion work much the same as the economics of finance, and working with your "Emotional Balance Sheet" will put you ahead of the game in every aspect of your life. Learn to transform your liabilities into assets, and use the incredible power of grounded optimism to create good fortune in your life.

• Leadership and the Emotional Environment: The Art and Science of Creating a Positive Emotional Atmosphere at Work

The essence of effective leadership is found in the integrity and communication style of the leader, beyond intellectual prowess and professional expertise. Quality and style of leadership determine emotional atmosphere in the workplace, which permeates all levels of an organization impacting loyalty, trust level, performance and productivity. Relationships thrive, energy levels rise, problems become opportunities, and productivity is enhanced in a healthy, upbeat emotional environment. This presentation provides theory, research, models and skills to take leaders to the next level in their personal and professional success.

• Healthy Anger and Your Health: Using Healthy Emotions for Total Wellness

This presentation will help you to tap into the incredible healing power of your anger and all of your emotions. Healthy anger doesn’t look, sound or feel like anger as we’ve come to know it. When it is in balance with compassion and intelligence, anger is tremendously powerful energy that fuels effective action. You can use that energy to help heal illness and motivate healthy choices in every aspect of your self-care. Make your anger and all of your emotions work for you instead of against you in this powerful, uplifting and informative program.
