CEO ROUNDTABLES

Mint Chip Studios facilitates vibrant and memorable conversations for executive groups. Here are two sample workshop descriptions: 

LEADING EFFECTIVE TEAM CONVERSATIONS

Great conversations lie at the heart of great collaboration.  How leaders talk to people, what they say, what they don’t say and how they say it, really matters. But too often this critical area is neglected, and meetings become dull, rote or worse -- time wasters.  The good news is that conversations are based on a distinct set of skills and attitudes that can be learned. Even small improvements can make a big difference. This master class will explore how changing your conversations at work can improve individual productivity, team collaboration and overall organizational performance. If comfortable, come prepared to get help with a specific dilemma you are facing with your team so the group and instructor can offer recommendations. The goal of this class is to have participants leave with 2-3 small “tricks” that will make a big difference.
