Presentation Topics...

Life Would Be Easy if it Weren't for Other People: Life is full of difficult people, situations and demands but we never quite learn to live with them. This fast-paced, entertaining session explores the differences between men and women, touches on marriage and parenting and then moves into the workplace, describing the whiner, tattler, gossiper, complainer and the employee who says, "that's not my job." Though humorous and motivational, this presentation is full of techniques that can be applied immediately at home and work to help build better relationships, open lines of communication, and enjoy life a little bit more. 

How To Be The Person Successful Companies Fight To Keep: The world is moving quickly. We've heard all of the words: downsizing, restructuring, reengineering. But what does this mean to you and your career? This dynamic, entertaining and refreshingly honest session will get you on track and ensure that you'll be ready for the changes headed your way. Podesta's 8 "secrets" will help you look at your future, enhance your sense of security and help you understand what the organization of the future is asking (even demanding) of it employees. 
If We're Going to Win This Race, We Need to Run in the Same Direction: Imagine if you will...people working together in a positive environment, sharing, ideas, taking risks, supporting one another, resolving conflicts face to face and treating others with dignity and respect. Does this sound like the Twilight Zone? If so, this information-packed, dynamic presentation is for you! Positive attitudes and a commitment to cooperation are essential to the success of any team - at work or at home. An excellent, memorable keynote presentation guaranteed to motivate, entertain, and educate. 
Journey: A Personal Dramatization: Journey is a memorable experience for men and women of all ages. It is a story of love, choices and relationships with an emphasis on family values. Written and performed by Connie Podesta, Journey is a warm, sensitive yet humorous look at a journey through teens, college, marriage, parenthood, career, mid-life crisis and retirement. Connie brings her experiences as an actress, teacher, businesswoman, family and marriage counselor, author, wife, mother, and woman to the stage in a celebration of shared life experiences. Her wisdom, sense of humor, sensitivity and passion will indeed take you on a journey as you watch your own life unfold before your eyes. 
Creating a Vision: Unlike goals, a vision is immeasurable. A vision is what makes life worth living. People with a vision produce more, complain less, initiate problem-solving, establish teams, experience less stress, maintain healthy relationships and radiate optimism. A vision begins with a belief in yourself because confidence and self-esteem give us permission to take risks, explore new territory and examine innovative ideas and procedures. This highly motivational presentation delivers cutting edge information about the work force of the 90's, empowerment, total quality management and the demands of a global market. 
Leadership Seminar or Retreat: Leading people can be stressful. The world is changing. Sometimes the stress of keeping up is overwhelming. Effective leaders must address the need for better customer service, the demand for higher quality and the cry for solid, consistent leadership. And, the most successful leaders are incorporating other "people-oriented" skills, such as customer service, dealing with difficult people, conflict resolution, interpersonal communication skills, balancing home and career, stress management, making effective presentations, self-esteem in the workplace, burnout, improving employee morale and quality management. This program can be an outstanding leadership retreat.
