ASPIRE HIGHER: "It’s Their Generation, Not Ours” ™
Question, reflect and consider how four, maybe five generations can work together in today's businesses and organizations. Do you know what each generation prizes about their education, how they handle their money, and how they truly feel about the workplace? How can we move from stereotypical attitudes about each generation to cultures that flourish in difficult and changing times in the workplace? Thoughtful, funny, and inspired strategies for success! (Two-three-hour keynote or seminar; customized to meet your needs; $500.00 per hour plus travel expenses)
We genuinely enjoyed your presentation on the generation gap. We continued to discuss and use the information you gave us during subsequent exercises and many class members emphasized during debriefs that your curriculum was helpful in the understanding of the people we work with on a daily basis. Dr.Che’ Miller; Leadership Duncan Class XV
The Generations session was most beneficial to everyone in the group and earned high evaluations. We only wished for more time with you. Robin Arter; Leadership Duncan Class XV
Thank you so much for sharing the Generations information during our Leadership Duncan XVI retreat. I have used the information several times already and am sure it will be beneficial for years to come. Lori Mirth, Duncan, OK
ASPIRE HIGHER Blue Skies and Green Lights for Family & Community Connections™
Family and community connections have several outcomes, ranging from increased student achievement to improved school climate to enhanced civic capacity in the community.
While there is evidence that family and community connections can result in positive outcomes many schools and districts rate parent and community involvement as one of their worst downfalls.
We need to let go of outdated expectations and stereotypes to create school, family, and community connections that support a variety of results. Using research-based practices can build a strong family and community partnerships that help all to learn. Present practices in your school will be inventoried by the school leadership team followed by a one-year plan for improved family and community connections created by participants. (One to four-day sessions depending on the district needs. Preliminary planning session with superintendent or designee required. Cost is $2,000.00 per day plus travel expenses.)
