Training Workshops with Ken Gonyer
Total Employee Engagement: Training for Supervisors
This interactive training workshop empowers supervisors to lead their team through an incredibly effective, employee-led strategic planning session. Because every team member has input and ownership in the resulting plan, implementation is supercharged. The end result? Success for the team… and your organization.
Ken Gonyer provided our credit union leaders with training on the GROW process in preparation for departmental goal setting. The training, which was informative, interactive and fun, provided our leaders with the tools they needed to conduct effective planning sessions with their staff. The result was better than we anticipated! We now have SMARTER goals and action plans in place to carry us through the year! Ken’s upbeat, knowledgeable and humorous approach to training was just what we needed.

Becoming a Skillful Communicator on the Job
We’d all like to see our team members:
– Sell more products or services
– Clarify confusion and build relationships
– Resolve difficult situations
This training gives them the tools to achieve success in each of these areas. The result? Your retail staff will be more comfortable and successful at introducing products, explaining processes, and resolving problems. This highly interactive workshop will equip participants to be the best at communicating with their customers and with each other through Skillful Listening and Skillful Responding. The take-home value is obvious: positive, can-do partners who communicate with confidence and get results.
Coaching Skills for Leaders
After years of command and control management and supervision, I learned how to coach employees. The result: powerful partnerships, solid relationships, innovative solutions, and self-motivation. Jack Welch said that “in the future, people who are not coaches will not be promoted.” Every manager or supervisor needs to learn to coach. They’ll get more things done – and done better – in the organization through coaching than with any other leadership skill.
Better Speaking Skills for Leaders
As a former victim of stage-fright and perpetrator of boredom, I can help you become comfortable and successful in your public speaking and presentations by drawing on your own life story and natural personality.
NEW! Crash-course in Public Speaking
I’ve developed an intensive coaching process that helps speakers hit their target of clear, articulate communication that engages their audience and calls them to action. Adaptable for groups or individuals, the sessions are delivered in one-hour modules. I request a minimum of three participants or three individual coaching sessions.
Also from Ken Gonyer:
Need a Speaker?
Need a speaker for a conference, event or fundraiser? I would be honored to consider invitations to speak to your group. As an award-winning speaker, I’m creative and original in my presentations so I can keep my listeners enthusiastically engaged. When I speak, I strive to be authentic, direct, and practical while keeping my talks light-hearted, encouraging and fun. My topics and sessions can be customized to meet the needs of your organization.
Strategic Planning Facilitation
I am available to facilitate strategic planning sessions for the board of directors or executive management teams of corporations, nonprofits and ministries. Using many of the same tools that a coach would use, I ask the questions that help your team develop vision, evaluate present conditions, explore options and set specific goals for achievement.
