Team Building and Relevant Bridges: As a coach prepares a team, John prepares an organization. He defines the importance of each individual and function--and their interrelationship to each other. John feels strongly that quality performance is easily attainable when understanding their relevance to the company's overall success motivates each individual.

Building these relevant bridges for individuals to relate as a team is just one of the valuable tools John can bring to bear on the challenges your organization faces. Another tool is defining those symptoms which are now masquerading as problems. As with a cold medication, treating the symptom does not cure the underlying disease. Unlike a cold, most "diseases" in an organizational sense will not go away within 5 to 7 days. The underlying disease must be diagnosed, and cured.

Sales Forecasting: John can aid your organization to develop a company-wide, dynamic sales forecast that goes beyond the presentation at your annual meeting. Harness all of the resources used to create that forecast and make it the initial step in evolving a company-wide, total product demand estimate. John created In Process Inventory (IPI) as a forecasting and communication tool, foundation elements that become the basis of an overall business plan. This
topic is presented as a one-hour seminar or a one to two day workshop.

Nature, Nurture and Style: Each individual communicates differently, both in the workplace and socially. But only since Adam and Eve. John presents valuable information in an entertaining and interactive format that can show the men and women in your organization how to understand each other and communicate more effectively. This topic is used as a keynote, luncheon address, or as either two-hour, or half-day workshops.

The Art of Exhibiting: Exhibiting opportunities can be one of your best--or your worst--investments of the year. John's background as an exhibitor and as a convention and trade show producer brings real-life truths and a lively approach to this presentation. He works with companies in several capacities in exhibit strategies, from the initial evaluation stage to on-site motivational presentations and the all-important post show review process. Request one of John's trade journal articles to see how he approaches this topic.

Product Development, technology acquisition and transfer activities: This function is the lifeblood of any company hoping to be in business 15 years from now. Much of the responsibility to keep a raft on course and upright at the same time is laid at the product manager's office door, even though every department has a paddle and hopefully a life-vest. John's experiences in this vital activity make for an interesting look at how to define your navigational needs. This topic can be presented at luncheons, in one-hour breakout sessions and as round-table discussions.

Customer Service: From initial contact through their entire experience with your organization, how is your customer really being treated? In every contact with your organization the customer needs to know you regard them with respect. How does the customer's total experience with your organization stack up? From telephone etiquette through complaint resolution, make life-long customers with positive experiences. John works with companies by providing one-hour presentations to several years' guidance on optimizing your customer's service experience.
