Presentation Topics

You spend a lot of time, money and effort to hire your employees – now you must figure out how to keep them. Contrary to popular belief, there are PLENTY of people out there who want a great job with a great company. But the question is, do you have the kind of culture that encourages employees to stay or will your work environment make them decide to take their skills elsewhere? As a business leader, you are faced with an enormous challenge: keeping your top talent from becoming someone else’s!

By participating in this program you will discover simple strategies that you can use immediately to create a workplace culture that ROCKS!

The business disruptions of the past couple of years gave us many opportunities to find the good – even in the most difficult of circumstances. Although it sometimes doesn’t feel like it, there were many “gifts” that resulted from the pandemic. The challenge is to look for and find the good.

In this fun and engaging keynote, you’ll see the difference that having a gratitude strategy – or Grategy – can make for you as an emerging leader. Using research, anecdotes, personal stories and experiences, Lisa gives you simple tools to create a culture of appreciation in your workplace so that you can keep your best employees from becoming someone else’s. In the process, you’ll also be able to give yourself the gift of a little self-care today for a better tomorrow.

Mother Teresa once said, “We are more starved for appreciation than we are for bread.”  If you are looking for an inspirational program that has both personal and professional impact, this is for you. Gratitude is more than the “soft and fluffy” emotion that you may be attributing to it.

In this session, you’ll learn how gratitude strategies (or Grategies) will change your perspective to focus on the good, experience health benefits from choosing positive emotions, improve your relationships with others and create a workplace culture that ROCKS!

Workplace culture has lots of components:

  • Attracting the right people.
  • Keeping employees engaged and inspired.
  • Being known in your community as THE place to work.
  • Having an inclusive, welcoming environment for everyone.
  • Being a part of a greater mission.

In this fun, engaging, highly interactive virtual session, participants will get real-world ideas and strategies they can use right away.

With approximately 10,000 baby boomers retiring every day, it’s more important than ever to attract the best employees you can hire while dealing with an ever-shrinking talent pool. Even more critical, is keeping your new hires from leaving after spending substantial time, money and human resources to get them onboard.

Why is this important?

  • Millennials will make up about 75% of the workforce by 2025
  • They are the most educated of the generations
  • They really ARE different from previous generations
  • If you don’t connect with them, your competitors will
  • Gen Z is coming – with wiring much different than their Millennial counterparts

With four active generations in the workplace, it’s important to realize that people are wired differently simply based on the year they were born. When you understand how each generation thinks, their relationship to the workplace, and where they place their priorities, it makes life easier for everyone.

You’ve heard the forecasts or perhaps you’ve had the experience of employees quitting in greater numbers than ever before. But is it really the economy or is there something that leadership is missing when it comes to the mindset that makes employees want to quit?

You also want to build a reputation in your industry as a great place to work so you can attract the people you need to keep your business productive and profitable.

In this program, you’ll learn three key actions that companies can take to keep their top talent from becoming someone else’s.
