FEB 3rd Chinese Feng Shui in the Workplace

This year, align your energies so the stars are in your favour!!! Discover a management tool that drives value & adds more joy to your people & profits! This goes beyond all borders & boundaries when it comes to long-lasting DIY value!!! A session best-suited for owners & managers who are open to driving value through the untapped assets that you can’t see!

CHINESE FENG SHUI

Chinese Feng Shui is an ancient study based on science, wisdom & experience. Its fruits are proven, powerful, & unparalleled! Having hit the mainstream, CFS is a household name due to its acclaims & successes. Interestingly, it is mostly a silent practice… the interest is plentiful but the knowledge is much too complex & intricate for friendly, light-hearted conversation. Clients experience the positives but the lifetimes of layers & details, rest with just a few authentic Masters. Since 1995, I have been very fortunate to study/practice under the teachings of Master Dr. David Lai, a global-renowned Master residing in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

SESSION CONTENT

This session introduces you to the Flying Stars Theory & the prevailing heavenly, earthly & life energies that prevail… be you asleep or be you conscious they are in action 24/7! We will review positive/negative energy cycles, paths, impacts & patterns, & how they will impact 2025 in general. I will also set the stage with real, true-life CFS stories, so you can know for sure, the proof is securely set in the pudding!!! I have personally witnessed & experienced the health, wealth & happiness that can only be attributed to Chinese Feng Shui design solutions. It’s utterly amazing & I am anxious to share it with you!

You will learn how to assess your specific workplace with respect to the good/bad energy flows influencing its location; exterior & surroundings; & the direction that it faces. In addition, by applying the 5 Elements Theory, you will learn step-by-step, how to measure & define the energetic makeup of your specific business, with respect to the alignment of energies that prevail in your existing environment as well as the influence of your people & their specific work relationships. From there, you will learn how to harness the positive energies & subjugate the negatives, to add more joy to your people & profits!

As a final, we will discuss Chinese Feng Shui’s most fun components… doors, lighting, elemental & architectural design, furniture placement, etc. A LOT of tips of what & where to place your items… what to attract and what to avoid to promote successes & avoid disasters. Includes specific Q&A time.

NOTE: This session is calculating & interactive. Please bring pen, ruler, paper & a compass with a clear backing, if you have it. Note that a small compass will also be provided. As well, a mock floor plan will be used for discussion purposes. Participants may feel to also bring their specific business floor plans, if properly measured to scale.

Did you know Happiness is more than a feeling & more like an innate intelligence?!!

FEB 10th A Happy Culture Workplace

Did you know Happiness is more than a feeling & more like an innate intelligence? When it comes to people, we have barely skimmed the surface let alone drilled down to the riches!!! Here, you will learn how-to create a Happy culture footprint & take advantage of Happy people power in numbers.

Success is no longer the key to Happiness; Happiness is the key to success!

To begin, I introduce ‘Happiness’ from a macro perspective… what is GNH Gross National Happiness; why it has rapidly gained such global appeal; & why Happy people matter now, more than any other time in our history. We will review the successes, failures & evolution of corporate structures & management styles; & why our existing business models are facing pending, unprecedented challenges, in every sector & business. We will explore why every business may need a reboot (traditional & non-traditional!) & why steady increases in G&A budgets may no longer be a viable, sustainable ‘pad’ for relentless spikes in people costs… even if you are super profitable!!!

Throughout the day, we will embark upon a step-by-step journey to create a Happy Culture footprint & create more joy for your people & profits. I will share what makes people tick; how to increase long-term engagement, productivity, & performance, & even discuss a method for tangibly measuring your Happy performance!

This is a get-real session that discusses: basic human psychology/behavior; people commons & differences; human rights; gaps in experience; attrition; segregation; the blending of generational mindsets; & AI/technology… all in relation to today’s work environment. We will discuss people communications & relations; how to set & fast-track your goals; & how to reduce/avoid confrontations, conflict; & us/them settings. This session reveals how to turn your politics, down-time & drama, into solid, steadfast positives & as a change catalyst, I will share a best approach for effectively implementing & embracing a Happy Culture footprint so it compliments your business without adding extra efforts or tasks for your people.

Along the way & as a wrap, I lend tangible tips, paths and solutions for easing people costs, enhancing people loyalty & essentially maintaining a Happy Culture footprint into the long term. This session is ideal for owners, managers and employees.

No company will ever realize its true potental until it realizes the true potential of its people!!!

FEB 24th People Performance & Power

What is the ‘pulse’ of your organization? Did you know employee disengagement is at a whopping 72% right across Canada? This session discusses basic human psychology/behavior from both management & staff perspectives, including how to smooth communications & blend generations. Here, you will learn the impacts of varying management styles & how to engage your people to avoid an us/them environment.

To improve relations, promptly reduce & resolve conflict, & bring people together, we will discuss the scenarios that typically break down workplace relations & further feed mental health issues. In parallel, we will focus on interactive role playing as an objective path for learning, for every level of the organization. This session is designed as an experience in how companies can make a difference by embracing the power that rests within the hearts & souls of your people.

MAR 3rd Professional Management Training

Management candidates are often selected based on quality output & performance. Often, it is based on one’s knowledge in a specific sector/field, such as an accountant, engineer, lawyer, etc. Sometimes, it’s deemed easier to promote within & to ‘work with the devel you know’… no onboarding/offboarding, less fuss, plus knowledge of existing company policies, goals, beliefs, etc. Sometimes, internal candidates are selected simply due to convenience, or a lack of time or of outside resources. Sometimes, management roles are organically assumed, thru growth, attrition or lengthy, low-cost ‘temporary’ fill-in positions.

It’s not that people skills are never factored… it’s just that they are often the last, to be factored! Logically, people tend to look up, not down when it comes to careers, contacts & corporate ladders. Of course, decision makers are anxious to potentially shed extra workloads & people headaches, & get forward in their own roles/destinies.

Every company seeks fast, affordable, top-quality, turn-key people solutions… who doesn’t? This is a comprehensive session that fast-tracks, how to select/identify a best-fit manager profile & candidate, & how to perform & contribute as an effective, value-added manager & player.

Managers will learn:

  • the pros/cons of varying management styles;
  • short/long-term planning/strategy;
  • scoping & managing G&A/budgets;
  • departmental set-up/infrastructure;
  • savvy resourcing;
  • IT needs/business;
  • day-to-day management;
  • internal communications/relations – staff & management team;
  • measured productivity & performance;
  • accountability & reporting;
  • change & fueling/facilitating future growth; &
  • motivating people to achieve goals in a timely manner.

This is an ideal platform for polishing manager performance & accountability; fast-tracking promotions; & smoothing gaps in experience associated with attrition challenges/initiatives.
