The Briles Group, Inc. Keynotes, General Sessions, Workshops

Judith does keynotes, workshops and spouse programs. One of the best ways for meeting planners to stretch their dollars is to work with her: because of her research-based work and 20 books, she can present for general sessions, intensive workshops and spousal/partner programs.

Creating Confidence Out of Chaos or The Confidence Factor   (General Sessions Only)
Woven around the Ten Steps to Building Confidence, this stimulating and humorous speech is guaranteed to motivate and inspire audiences. Based on the award winning business best seller, The Confidence Factor, this program consistently wows participants.

Staboteurs in Your Midst…
Dealing with the Pit Bulls, Snakes, Scorpions & Slugs in the Workplace

Every workplace has them—the pit bulls that hide behind lipstick and designer clothes; snakes who flick their abrasive tongue and voice and any and all, the scorpions who sting you with a slap of their heavy backhand and the slugs…those who are just there and breathing.

The Mini Workplace Package
My extensive list of programs ... condensed into a day of 30 minute “bites”—staff and managers view them as extended breaks…attendance is high

What the Bleep #%&! Did You Say ?
Are you communicating? With who? You might think you are, but only your colleagues know for sure!

Money Smarts
In this workshop based on Judith’s award-winning books Money Smarts: Personal Financial Success in 30 Days! and Smart Money Moves for Kids, participants learn how to get money smart and 100s of ways to secure their financial future.

Leading with Confidence
Leaders need to know how to manage, yet lead; managers need to know how to lead, yet manage.  Both must be confident to be successful within their organizations and teams.

Thriving with Change When Thriving Doesn’t Feel Like an Option
Change is everywhere.  Some changes are no bigger than gnats, others the size of a Mack truck.  Either way, the thought and implementation of changes can demoralize, even destroy those going through it. 

When Women Work with Women ... From Sabotage to Support
Women are unique . . . and they use unique factors in communicating, dealing with and creating conflict.

"The all-day workshop we had with you and our 'extended' Women's Leadership Team was so very helpful to all the new charge nurses...they use the material and tips on a daily basis.....and dysfunction is starting to turn into function -- especially in our most difficult unit."  Director in a West Coast Healthcare system

 

Creating Confidence Out of Chaos or The Confidence Factor (General Sessions Only)

Confidence is the Career Maker or Career Breaker. Based on the best-selling book, The Confidence Factor, you’ll learn that confidence is acquired, not inherited.  Woven around the Ten Steps to Building Confidence, this stimulating and humorous speech is guaranteed to motivate and inspire audiences.  Included are tips from thousands surveyed and interviewed that focus on developing self-confidence at work and home. 

Staboteurs in Your Midst…Dealing with the Pit Bulls, Snakes, Scorpions & Slugs in the Workplace

Every workplace has them—the pit bulls that hide behind lipstick and designer clothes; snakes who flick their abrasive tongue and voice and any and all, the scorpions who sting you with a slap of their heavy backhand and the slugs…those who are just there and breathing. The effect is that huge amounts of money are lost in productivity, turnover related costs and patient safety factors.   

Based on 9 national studies released in Zapping Conflict in the Health Care Workplace, The Briles Report on Women in Health Care, Woman to Woman: From Sabotage to Support. And the forthcoming book, Is There a Staboteur in Your Midst?… Pit Bulls, Snakes, Scorpions and Slugs in the Workplace.

Participants will learn how to effective deal with the bad boys and girls of the workplace. 

The Mini Workplace Package

Educational and Training Directors often say that there isn’t enough time in the workplace to do a workshop—employees can’t take extended time off during their workday.  If that’s an issue, consider do a Mini Package of Programs—you pick from the extensive list of programs that I presently do, I’ll condense them into a day of 30 minute “bites”—staff and managers view them as extended breaks…attendance is high…and everyone comes away with a few nuggets that can be immediately implemented in their workplace.

Money Smarts

You will spend over 10,000 days making money. How many days are you willing to commit to keeping some of it . . . and better yet, making it grow?

Based on Judith Briles’ latest book, Money $marts: Personal Financial Success in 30 Days!, you will learn practical tips that will equip you with an action plan to build a stronger financial future no matter what happens to Social Security.

Judith bypasses theory and gets to the point. There are no pie-in-the-eye ideas, just useful concepts that you will begin to implement today. The result--you will reduce debt, eliminate waste, create a safety net and create a realistic strategy that allows you to be financially independence

Money $marts: Personal Financial Success in 30 Days! and its companion, Smart Money Moves for Kids will be available to attendees at a special rate.

When Women Work with Women: From Sabotage to Support

Women are unique . . . and they use unique factors in communicating, dealing with and creating conflict. Do women undermine other women? Yes. Are their saboteurs in your midst? Most likely. You'll learn why, how and ways to change a toxic workplace and confront saboteurs in the midst.
