It’s been an intense beginning of the year for many, Lines Of Excellence Consulting (LOE) included. We’ve been analyzing how to best serve our clients by offering our expertise in helping them to meet their ever-changing and stressful needs. We’ve revamped our stress management seminars to include a variety of current factors that are prevalent in the workplace, such as:

· Managing increased workloads and decreased staff

· Maneuvering through the tangled web of mergers and acquisitions

· Making hiring decisions based on tailored assessments & effective interviewing

· Managing and encouraging a healthy work environment

Changing times require reorganization, and we’ve responded. What I hear more and more from my clients is not how to manage, but how to survive and thrive during times of uncertainty. At LOE we are working hard to provide you with the skills needed to prosper and perform at your best, and for your company to do the same.

As a helpful tool, we offered our Leaders Developing Leaders presentation again via webcast in September. Some of you have participated already in our webinars and have this presentation already, having reported how helpful it’s been in developing managerial coaching skills. Others were new to our Grow Yourself Newsletter and experienced the value of this short yet efficient presentation. It is an important time for effective managerial skills and time management. We all need to in effect manage our time and take advantage of the opportunity to enhance intellectual capital. That said, we’ve added to our team of experts at LOE and are fortunate to be working with coaches that specialize in sales training and development, business development, as well as flexible work options.
