What would your organization be like if no one ever asked, “Whose fault is this?” What if we could all let go of the ‘blame game’ and view accountability as a method for achieving increased personal and team effectiveness?
Most employees take on new projects with the best intentions, seeking only a successful result. But lack of clarity not lack of commitment often finds their goals unrealized. Accountability That Works! presents a simple process structure — before, during and after — common to all tasks. When handled properly, this structure will ensure the clarity and completion of any task.
* The “before” phase: RESPONSIBILITY — When an individual or team establishes a mindset of ownership for the task, taking complete responsibility that it will get done.
* The “during” phase: EMPOWERMENT — When the owner(s) does whatever is necessary to complete the task. This might include action steps; a time line; determining who and what are key resources; implementing creative problem solving; and determining how to complete the task without other tasks suffering.
* The “after” phase: ACCOUNTABILITY —When the responsible party(ies) owns the outcome of the task. This is when results, good or bad, are acknowledged (and the temptation to place blame on external factors or coworkers is overcome). It is when the owner(s) allows learning from the experience to take place.
Accountability That Works! teaches that accountability is much more than a paper trail. It is an ongoing opportunity to gain focus, accomplish more, streamline work processes, and create greater team effectiveness. The training program and workshop allow viewers to observe these processes at a manufacturing plant, software design firm, and medical facility, illustrating how to: ensure every task has a clearly defined owner and agreement.
# empower themselves to keep their agreements.
# hold others accountable for their agreements
# be accountable without being defensive.
# learn from mistakes, continually improving personally and professionally.
Accountability That Works! is an exciting, innovative new training program that will provide everyone in your organization with the tools they need for a greater sense of empowerment, a higher level of effectiveness, and increased productivity.

Effective People Skills
Wonder what’s the number one reason an employee fails at your firm?
Research shows that the most common cause of personal and professional failure is not lack of intelligence or technical ability, but rather ineffective personal skills. When you consider that the average cost of replacing an employee is $75,000 – and this doesn’t include the individual’s effect on your team’s morale, performance, and productivity – it’s obvious that teaching your workforce how to resolve conflicts in a positive manner is in everyone’s best interest.
Effective People Skills is a suite of eight 1-hour workshops that cover every conceivable type of conflict that occurs in your workplace, as well as related topics. Most important, it teaches your employees essential skills for resolving conflicts, enhancing collaboration and productivity, and infusing a spirit of teamwork and respect at your company.
Each workshop features an information-rich participant’s workbook and an engaging video that dramatizes a particular type of conflict and models an ideal response. The eight modules can be used individually or together, enabling you to tailor content to the unique needs of your organization.
The Effective People Skills Suite
Determining the Right Response to Conflict (1-hour workshop with video)
Conflict with others is an unavoidable part of the workplace. Knowing that there are four types of conflict (covert/passiveaggressive, covert-passive, overt-aggressive, and overt-assertive) and that there are four powerful strategies individuals can use in each of these situations empowers all of your employees to turn difficult encounters into productive situations.
Handling Overt Conflict (1-hour workshop with video)
Dealing with hot-tempered individuals tests the mettle of even your most poised employee. Handling Overt Conflict teaches every member of your team to stay calm and to develop constructive dialogs with individuals at your firm who are notorious for being difficult – a great way to enhance productivity and bring peace to the office!
Handling Covert Conflict (1-hour workshop with video)
What’s the best way to approach individuals who don’t air their grievances in public, but instead, internalize it and undermine the workplace in subtle ways? Handling Covert Conflict teaches your team how to draw out the hidden issues and concerns of disgruntled employees so that everyone can perform at their peak.
The Aikido Approach to Conflict (1-hour workshop with video)
The non-violent martial art of aikido has won the accolades of leading thinkers because its enables participants to view conflict from a radically different perspective – one that allows individuals to resolve differences in a harmonious, noncompetitive, and productive manner. Now you can give your workforce these same powerful tools for use in their day-to-day workplace interactions.
Working Collaboratively (1-hour workshop with video)
Much has been said about the importance of collaboration in the global economy, yet far too many employees still think of their areas of responsibilities as personal fiefdoms. Working Collaboratively teaches your staff the fundamentals of collaboration – the art of working together artfully, skillfully, and creatively – which is a powerful way to enhance the productivity of your workforce.
Listening (1-hour workshop with video)
It’s an old adage that listening is one of the most difficult skills to learn. It’s a fact that poor listening skills result in lost opportunities, frustrated workers, and unnecessary mistakes. Listening teaches participants the four steps needed to be a good listener (releasing, attending, amplifying, and reflecting) and how everyone benefits by giving their fellow workers their ear.
Asserting (1-hour workshop with video)
Employees who lack the confidence to assert themselves in the workplace deprive your company of innovative ideas and valuable feedback, and they eventually end up frustrated and discontented with their jobs. Asserting helps these individuals to develop the skills they need to express ideas and goals that can make a difference at your company and to find greater satisfaction in their careers.
Giving and Receiving Feedback (1-hour workshop with video)
For us to grow personally and professionally, we must be able to give and receive feedback, yet few individuals know how to do this in a nonthreatening and productive manner. Giving and Receiving Feedback teaches your team how to use these two critical skills to help themselves and their associates become what they want to be.

I Wasn't Prepared for That
#VA-Unprepared
26 minutes
Sale: $870.00
Rental: $250.00
Fear. That’s the main reason most people won’t make presentations, or make them poorly. By following the three simple lessons of I Wasn’t Prepared For That, anyone can conquer presentation phobia and go on to make his or her case successfully and professionally. It all comes down to preparation.
When Rachel (Dawn French) is asked to make a presentation on relocation options for the firm, she recoils in horror, preferring to e-mail her case to the board of directors. But as her mentor, Jenkins (Robert Lindsay), points out, nobody knows the situation better than Rachel, and a professional presentation carries more weight than a simple memo.
To boost Rachel’s confidence, Jenkins explains she must prepare the presentation by first knowing who she is talking to and why. By trial and error, Jenkins then coaches Rachel through the three key stages of giving a presentation: outline the position, give the options and offer a proposal. I Wasn’t Prepared For That also provides practical presentation tips such as avoiding jargon, reducing nervous anxiety, and using visual aids properly, all explained with a serious dose of humor.

Without dialog, and in only 7 minutes, this music video sends a powerful message about the profound importance of attending to the human side of business.
In this short story we follow Carl Kindred through his work day as he unintentionally discourages the people around him, by being too busy and task focused to listen to their concerns, communicate his expectations and acknowledge and appreciate their good efforts.
It isn't until he receives a life altering phone call, that he is able to recognize how he is dis-serving his people. In this moment of clarity and perspective he sees the vital importance of giving people his whole attention, of showing appreciation for their contribution and of listening. Inspired by his new insight he returns to the people he previously frustrated and treats them with patience, encouragement and respect, leaving them energized to do their job with creativity and resourcefulness.

We don't need to tell you how popular Scott Adams' Dilbert cartoon has become. Just look at the latest New York Times Bestseller list! Managers and employees alike are buying his books by the thousands! Why? Because Dilbert offers an amusing look at the foibles of the modern workplace - especially in the area of Office Politics!
Well, guess what? So does OFFICE POLITICS: NOT NECESSARILY THE TRUTH! Anybody who appreciates the humor of Dilbert will enjoy this video. Like Dilbert, OFFICE POLITICS takes a worst-case approach to problems that are common to any organization: rumors, lack of communication, out-of-touch bosses, and many others. Unlike Dilbert, however, OFFICE POLITICS offers simple, concrete solutions to make sure these problems don't destroy the organization.
Let's face it -- nobody likes to admit their organization may have problems with Office Politics. But as Grandma used to say, "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." OFFICE POLITICS: NOT NECESSARILY THE TRUTH shows managers how to spot potential situations before they become big problems! The tips in the video could save an organization thousands -- even millions -- of dollars!
So when your customers ask you if you have anything "Dilbert-like", to them a favor and tell them about OFFICE POLITICS: NOT NECESSARILY THE TRUTH! This video stars HARRY ANDERSON of Night Court and Dave's World.

Sale: $625.00

When things go wrong, all too often managers blame employees…employees point fingers at co-workers…and sales people blame customers. The result: the entire organization suffers in productivity and morale.
But, imagine the outcome if, instead of asking questions that “shift the blame,” everyone asked questions that generated energy around solving problems.
Asking the right questions is what Personal Accountability & the QBQ is all about. In this fast-paced, award-winning video, nationally known consultant and speaker John Miller demonstrates the difference that accountable thinking and action can make. Through compelling stories and powerful images, he shows that successful people ask a different kind of question the- “QBQ.”
|
| Blame and finger-pointing waste personal and organizational energy.
|
| Taking responsibility for “doing what’s right” creates energy and motivation.
|
| An attitude of accountability can improve our lives, at work and at home.

Rental: $295.00
Winner Crystal Shooting Star and Cindy Awards for Best Video
This customizable employee orientation training program is designed to help new employees in public and private sector organizations explore the behaviors and interpersonal skills that will be essential to their success.
The success of new employees is often determined in their first few weeks at work. Once hired, it is essential that they clearly understand what is expected of them and what they must do to succeed. Their orientation process must go beyond explaining benefits and specific job skills. They need to understand the mission and culture of their organization and how they fit in.
|
| Do your employees know where your organization is going and how they
fit in?
|
| Are they clear on how their success at work will be measured?
|
| Do they understand your organization's "culture" and core workplace values?
|
| How do you expect them to treat their colleagues?
|
| How should they treat their internal and external customers?
|
| Who is ultimately responsible for their success?
| |
Succeeding at Work - The Adventure Begins is a video-based employee orientation package designed to help organizations explore these critical questions with their new employees.
Program Objectives
Succeeding at work - The Adventure Begins is intended to help new employees
in public and private sector organizations explore the behaviors and interpersonal
skills that will be essential to their success. After viewing the program and
working through the printed support materials, employees will have a clearer
idea of:
| their organization's mission |
| their performance objectives |
| their organization's core workplace values |
| polices on harassment and diversity |
| appearance and punctuality standards |
| respectful communications issues |
| customer service practices |
| the need to take responsibility for their own success |
Customization
Succeeding at Work - The Adventure Begins can be easily customized at
6 points throughout the video so you can address issues and policies specific
to your organization - right on the tape. Just send us your information, logo,
video footage, a welcoming message from you CEO or other leader, and we can
customize the program to look like it was made just for you. All of this can
be done at a very reasonable cost.
Program Contents
Succeeding at Work - The Adventure Begins takes place aboard the Space Cruiser
Success as it rockets through the galaxies. As the story unfolds, the crew learns
valuable lessons about how they should treat each other, communicate with each
other, serve their internal and external customers and value the diverse skills
and background they each bring with them.
Succeeding at Work - The Adventure Begins is entertaining and insightful.
A great deal of information is covered in a relatively short time. We introduce
a fascinating and diverse crew of humans and aliens, each with strengths and
challenges that will look strangely familiar to us.
The program is divided into modular segments making it easy to further explore the issues raised, moving from the general principals outlined in the video to the specific practices at your workplace. You can run the video straight through, or stop and start it as a tool to trigger more in-depth study and discussion on each topic. The program is designed to be flexible and can be easily adapted to fit your organization's need and time constraints.

Rental: $195.00
This new video shows employees and supervisors what it really takes to fit in and succeed in an organization. It gives them the "inside scoop" in a clear and friendly manner - covering the unspoken truths we all wish we had known from day one.
Great program to add to New Employee Orientation for employees and supervisors!
As successful employees have learned -- sometimes the hard way - career success often depends on "where your head's at and how you act," rather than what you know. It's our attitude, our approach, and our interactions with others that can matter most and set us apart as extraordinary employees.
Using a comfortable "between you and me" approach, this video encourages employees to adopt four straightforward strategies (see below) and promotes the idea that if they really give their best effort daily -- rather than worrying about how to get ahead -- they will see results right away. Others will take notice of their professionalism, their personal behavior, and their continual efforts to make a positive impact on the organization.

Whale Done!™ The Power of Positive Relationships
#VPP-Whale
45 minutes( Two Parts)
Sale: $995.00
Rental: $295.00
Description:
What do training killer whales have to do with training humans? More than you
think! In this inspiring training program, Ken Blanchard and top SeaWorld
trainers Thad Lacinak and Chuck Tompkins teach viewers a technique that actually
increases employee effectiveness at work—a technique perfected over twenty years
at SeaWorld!
Whale Done!™ is designed to teach people how to improve their relationships at work in order to become more productive and to achieve better results.
We have to rely on and work with others in order to be productive and achieve results. The problem is that many work environments are not conducive to positive relationships. Instead, they employ the GOTcha approach (catching people doing things wrong). If an employee makes a mistake, then someone else is waiting to catch the employee with a GOTcha! Many times, GOTcha is the result of a lot of programs that focus on fixing problems. This type of culture can be unproductive and self-defeating. While focused on the mistake, we are inadvertently reinforcing what we don't want to happen—the negative behavior.
The Whale Done! approach can have a dramatic positive impact on your relationships with others. It is contagious and will help your entire organization increase productivity, improve employee morale, and achieve better results.
Once employees go through the course, they should be able to:
| Explain the impact of positive relationships and the Whale Done! approach |
| Identify ways to build trust with others in the organization |
| Identify and implement the five steps of redirection |
| Identify and implement the four steps of the Whale Done! response |
Video 1: Whale Done!™
—Filmed on location at SeaWorld, Ken Blanchard teaches viewers how to
improve relationships by building trust, accentuating the positive, and
redirecting the energy when things get off track. Whale Done! illustrates to
coworkers, managers, and employees that by building positive relationships, they
will become more productive, achieve greater results, and create an environment
where everyone is genuinely excited about the work they are doing! (30 minutes)
Video 2: Whale Done! in Action—Ken Blanchard shows audiences how to apply
the concepts to real-life business situations. He emphasizes two key skills that
can have an immediate, positive impact: how to give redirection when someone
makes a mistake, and how to give a Whale Done! Response when you catch someone
doing something right. (15 minutes)
