Sally's presentations, trainings, coaching programs and books are designed around a fundamental set of learning principles; The 3 'I's.

Immediate: Information and strategies must be immediately actionable and beneficial for participants to obtain buy-in.

Incorporable: Skills, strategies, tools and techniques should be user friendly and able to be easily incorporated into participants' current lives/workplaces/businesses/environments.  Information needs to be transferable and deemed relevant both now and in the future.

Impactful: Over time, results or outcomes need to positively benefit participants and the organisations in which they work. Such results need to be measurable and show improvement across targeted areas such as professional conduct, productivity and performance, workplace morale, health outcomes and teamwork as examples.

Sally has used these principles with audiences and individuals from varying organisations and groups including Coeliac Victoria and Tasmania Inc, Coeliac Research Fund, Geelong Regional Library Corporation, Department of Education & Early Childhood Development, The Gordon Institute, Gateways Support Services and Literary Groups.

Presentation Topics

Problems: The New Black - 'Solving Problems Dynamically to Create Star Results'
We've all heard the phrase, "it's not a problem, it's an opportunity," more often than not from someone who wants the problem solved. That can be okay in theory, but how do we embrace the problem and turn it into an opportunity to create star results in reality?

This presentation looks at how the process used by the best problem-solvers can be decoded into a repeatable set of actions that can used by all of us. You'll hear about the tools, the process and the mindset that can truly turn a 'problem into an opportunity' and how these techniques can be used to create star results in your business and life. 

Sally's unique combination of humour, stories and intellect is sure to leave you inspired to transform your problems into success.  Problems...they ARE the new black.
