Peter’s Most Requested Presentations/Workshops:

Three Keys for Overcoming Resistance to Change
Why do 70% of all change efforts fail? Because we're conditioned to avoid and resist change. Common strategies and approaches to change more often lead to resentment, passive aggressiveness, sabotage and defensive compliance. Are we sabotaging our own or others' efforts to change? Are our personal or professional performance and production threatened by our resistance and reluctance to change? Participants explore the obstacles preventing them from embracing change and learn proven and effective tools, techniques and practices to reduce and eliminate their resistance to change and free them to be comfortable with, and fully embrace change.

SELF - Management: The Key to Effective Time Management
In spite of all the time management tools and techniques with which we're bombarded daily, we don't seem to be improving on the efficiency with which we live our lives. Each of us has three options: increase the amount of available time we have, reduce the number of tasks we choose to engage in or change the amount of time we spend on a task (i.e., efficiency and productivity). Our common strategy is to rob Peter to pay Paul. Self-defeating trade-offs usually result in giving up what we need most, e.g., exercise, "me" time, sleep, personal growth, healthy relationships, etc. Peter explores: Are you doing the right thing? Are you doing things the right way? And, are you operating at 100% productivity? That is, are you managing yourself in an optimal way in order to manage your time in an optimal way?
