(R)Evolutionary Future Skills Keynotes
What is the best investment an organization can make to prepare for the future of work today and achieve unparalleled success?
…Advance the Resourcefulness of it’s People!
Adaptive, Innovative People Who Are Excited and Engaged, and Are the Key to a Thriving Organization
For over 20 years I have researched and participated in many human potential programs in search for bettering myself and also in search of the latest techniques for improving leadership performance.
The work of Dr. Donald Epstein is by far the most advanced and the most integrated concepts/teachings I have come across in the past 20 years.
Epstein Technologies is the accumulation of the research and models created that have been validated by numerous Universities and have already helped thousands of people globally increase health, well being and success.
We have collaborated with Epstein Technologies to bring the concepts and applications to the business world. The Epstein Technologies Corporate Program brings the teachings to businesses in the form of Keynotes, Seminars and Training programs.
The companies who will be interested in these programs will have the following ideologies in common:
- The organization is fast paced, highly technological and dynamic
- The CEO recognizes the need for leaders to have ‘superhuman OS’ in order to lead change effectively
- The leaders have had leadership training AND they are ready for the highest level of leadership tools available
- The leaders recognize that they need ‘human resourcefulness’ in order to create a company that provides shared value for its employees and its customers
- The company is focused on ‘reorganizing’ to a focus of providing added value consistently to employees and clients
- These extraordinary programs have never been released before in the Corporate arena and within a month of release major organizations like Unilever and Sony are on board and learning (r) evolutionary ways to advance the resourcefulness of their people.
