Working with You Is Killing Me: Freeing Yourself from Emotional Traps at Work
If you find yourself getting fed up and frustrated with a colleague whose incompetence is driving you crazy, a boss who gets angry when you're not a mind reader, or an employee who habitually challenges your authority, chances are you're caught in an emotional trap in the workplace. Quit complaining and do something!

Ordinary People, Extraordinary Results: True Stories of Great Leadership
Leaders who understand how small acts can lead to big results are invaluable to an organization. This compilation DVD helps build that understanding. Containing four stand-alone videos plus two meeting openers, this set provides real-world examples of "average" people who did small things to focus and motivate others toward significant accomplishments--many times under trying circumstances.

Managing Me
As the leader of any group, problems are inevitable. So...how do you react? Do you lead with your gut...or your head? As each situation plays out, the better reaction is clear. Viewers recognize that how you react often has a far greater impact on morale, on retention, on productivity than any specific problem ever could. The key to managing other people is learning how to manage yourself--remembering that it's not what happens to you, but how you react that matters.

Drop By Drop: Subtle Discrimination
Small slights, subtle discriminations and tiny injustices are little negative gestures called "micro-inequities" and occur in organizations everyday. They also have the potential to become big problems in the workplace by undermining morale and reducing productivity. Drop by Drop raises awareness and emphasizes the importance of maintaining a thoughtful and respectful workplace while sharing the key concepts for creating an inclusive and productive work environment.

Love Your Customers
Great acting isn't that different from great customer service. You have to pay attention to your audience. You have to give them your all and make each performance wonderful. That's what you do every time you interact with a customer! Let John O'Hurley (Seinfeld, Monty Python's Spamalot, Family Feud) show you how to receive standing ovations by performing great customer service.

Everest: Creating Greatness
Leadership is a choice, not a position, as witnessed in the true story of blind mountain climber Erik Weihenmayer and the courageous team that got him to the top of Mt. Everest. Erik's team stepped up when the need arose. They shared leadership. Egos didn't get in the way. They had the competence and skill to succeed. Each inspired trust and understanding of the perils of reaching their goal.
