Which leads to two vital questions: Are You Being Heard or Just Making Noise? Do you exercise the Triple “A” of Personal and Organizational Responsibility: Authority, Autonomy and Accountability? And in a diverse workplace, do you create Accessibility? Have no fear Mark Gorkin, MSW, LICSW, the Stress Doc ™ is here with this “Get FIT” – FUN-Interactive-Thought-provoking – program!

Who Should Attend

Individuals, teams, and the organization as a whole benefit when you have high task and human touch communicators. These head and heart communicators not only know how to dynamically present ideas but, most important, encourage diverse and collaborative “Helmet’s Off” – engagement and problem-solving. Systems become more creative and interactive communities when leaders know how to “say it and engage it".

Why Should Attend

This webinar is for all individuals who wish to deliver leadership substance and style that connects with, motivates, and even inspires a diverse workplace. In a world that’s always on and constantly being distracted, one can easily lose touch with your employees. To sustain attention, performance focus, and team morale a leader must engage the head and the heart, high-task and human touch. He or she must know how to be “TnT – Tough and Tender,” to be authentic, vulnerable, and fearless. It is also for those desiring tools and techniques for being high impact-communicators whether at a team or all-hands meeting, in a boardroom or at a conference.
