Empowering Conversations
did you know business leaders ARE CREATING ISSUES WITH THEIR CONVERSATIONS?
Discover how to be a positive influence through conversations that support & empower others so you can create a positive, winning team culture.
Have you ever been frustrated by not being able to find the right words to help a client or staff member be at their mental and physical best?
Do you ever feel challenged with conversations about poor performance or having to release staff & you would like to do it in a way that doesn't break their spirit?
Did you know that when many business leaders have conversations with staff or clients they unintentionally make them feel threatened, hijacking the athlete's ability to think clearly and negatively impacting results?
Business leaders have told me they have had conversations where they feel like the other person hasn't heard them at all!
The secret to ensuring you have connected conversations with others & helping them truly hear and understand you, lies in neuroscience.
Let me explain: The human brain is wired for survival.
In our hunter gatherer past it was vital for our individual survival to belong to a tribe.
As a business leader you are the leader of a "tribe".
Something as simple as a few ill considered words, or even a look of disapproval from you can be perceived by another person's brain as being rejected by the "tribe".
Even today our brains process rejection to mean a potential death sentence!
Rejection can hijack an athlete's brain making it less capable of functioning effectively.
performance conversations that empower, & not disempower, others.
You might think adults shouldn't allow their brain to get hijacked by what you do.
The reality is, they often do. And it's not their fault. When the brain feels threatened, it goes into flight, fight or freeze mode.
The brain's ancient automatic survival response is very powerful and trumps all other parts of the brain's processing mechanisms when it kicks in. And a business owner or manager can very easily & unknowingly make it kick in.
When this happens, the brain no longer has the capacity to logically process new information.
As a leadership coach and as a client myself, I have seen how people in business can unwittingly, adversely impact others.
And because business owners & managers are the most important influences in a business, this means they are well positioned to minimise issues before they escalate through having effective conversations.
This is not about...
you being an "therapist" or being "nice", dancing around issues or trying to be a "parent" to others.
This is about having powerful high performance conversations so staff, clients & other stakeholders are empowered, regardless of what is being discussed.
NOT ONLY CAN Empowering Conversations support others think better, they contribute to building a positive culture....& THAT MEANS BETTER BUSINESS RESULTS.
The truth is that many BUSINESS LEADERS are not equipped to have these conversations.
And there are business leaders who think that mental & emotional management is not their domain.
However, every business owner & manager should understand how to have day to day
high performance conversations that empower others.
Do you want to ensure that...
rather than potentially planting the seed for performance or mental health issues, that with every conversation you are steering others towards being more confident, capable & resilient?
I know it might sound extreme ....
The bottom line is that if you as a business leader inadvertently set off a threat response, which is incredibly easy to do, staff, clients or vendors can't hear what you say. They can't make good decisions. They can't think straight.
to support your others perform at their best, you must know how to navigate around the super sensitive survival brain.
If you don't want to negatively impact WELL-BEING & PERFORMANCE ...
it is vital you learn the neuroscience of conversations and follow a
a road map based on neuroscience to bring out the best in others.
I'm sure you want to unleash a client or staff member's full potential, not hinder their results when you speak with them.
Having good intentions is not enough as a leader - you also have to have the skill to empower others.
The Empowering Conversations Program maps out all the important aspects of the neuroscience of conversations so you understand WHY you need to change how you have performance & personal conversations. It provides you with conversational frameworks to effectively navigate any conversation so you are heard and so you can empower your others to be their best both professionally and personally.
The big question on the mind of many business leaders is "How can I best influence others?".
Many business leaders are frustrated.
And not only with trying to influence staff. They want to be able to easily & effectively influence clients & even their spouse & family members.
I wish I would have known how to have more empowering and influential conversations when I was the manager of 21 staff!
There were key moments when I wanted to directors & clients so I could get what I thought would be the best result for everyone.
And there were times when I quickly needed to move staff members or colleagues out of a funk and into high performance thinking, & when I would have liked to better support others with the many & varied issues they encounter.
I did alright, but it was a bit hit and miss.
I didn't have a clear, proven approach to readily apply to have these important conversations.
I was good at building rapport, but I really was flying blind when it came to having a structure for useful, targeted and productive conversations - the type of conversations that positively influence and which can quickly transform attitude and behaviour.
existing business education aren't enough....
Many business leaders have never had structured training in how to have effective & efficient conversations that influence others. Those that have, and even those with MBA's haven't received the depth of training in interpersonal communication that they need to be successful. Existing training does not drill down so you truly understand how to structure conversations to support, empower & positively influence others. Nor does training make it clear why certain approaches don't work.
One thing I know now is that strategically positioned empowering conversations are the difference between being a good and great business leader.
The Empowering Conversations Program fully immerses you in conversation models & provides a safe forum to practice, so by the end of the Program, the concepts are fully wired into your brain.
Would you benefit from having effective, proven frameworks to apply to your conversations?
There are essential scientific keys every business leader must know so they can support clients, staff, colleagues & others be their best & influence effectively.
For more than a decade I have immersed myself in the art of transformational conversations.
I made it my mission to find out how to have powerful & direct conversations that help people overcome barriers so they can be at their best. I dedicated myself to this pursuit & became a Professional Certified Coach with the International Coach Federation, & a coach mentor & assessor for the Neuroleadership Institute. In addition to being accredited in Neurolingistic Programming & hypnosis, I have supported hundreds of people in business & sport to be at their personal & professional best.
What I have discovered is that it is more effective to help others when you truly understand & integrate key concepts regarding how the human brain operates & have simple models to apply in conversations.
What you will learn in the Empowering Conversations Program is that it is all about focus in the right areas & purposefully directing the conversation.

“Confidence in my leadership abilities has moved from 4 to a 9 through learning these conversational skills. With a little more practise I will be a 10!

Is it time to be an even better leader?
Imagine feeling relaxed, confident and purposeful as you positively influence others with ease - whether it's a colleague, staff member, or family member.
Imagine knowing how to drive a conversation forward and navigating issues, no matter who you are speaking with or what the topic of conversation is.
Imagine directly communicating your point and knowing the exact questions to ask to help shift somebody in their thinking so they can move forward towards their goal.
What you're about to read will reveal the true secret why many business and sporting leaders have fractured relationships, & poor track records as influencers.

Why Stephanie?
Why am I able to help you be a more inspiring, capable leader who empowers others through conversations?
It's not just because of my lifetime of experience in elite sport as a player & coach, or because of my years of government management experience. It's not even necessarily because I have been a teacher & executive coach, & a mentor & trainer in leadership & well being.
That's only a part of the reason. Let me share the REAL reason that may surprise you.
2006 was my year from hell.
It was the year I disconnected from who I was.
This horror year included finalising my father's estate, worrying about my mother's deteriorating mental health, & trying to navigate an unworkable organisational restructure which tripled my workload. I had a two year old at home & was in a 3 day a week job share where my job share partner was taken offline & my director resigned. I also had three hospital visits in six months from two miscarriages and a shoulder reconstruction.
After a conversation with the Executive Coach I was seeing to help navigate through the organisational restructure, she pointed out what, in retrospect, was obvious. I was depressed.
After getting to a place of acceptance around the depression, which wasn't easy for a high achieving self-proclaimed optimist who thought this wasn't in her make up, I put some strategies in place & took leave from work to reflect & consider a way forward.
I continued to see the Executive Coach. During one session the focus turned to previous conversations I had with an Executive Director which hadn't gone so well.
As my coach helped me to reflect on what had unfolded, it was then I uncovered the real secret to my conversational woes. I had a crucial insight - I was a key contributor to these conversations ending up where I didn't want them to go! I realised it was how I was focussed in these conversations that was a huge factor in things heading in the wrong direction! And not only that, I realised that it wasn't just these conversations this applied to, but conversations with many others.
I was creating the unwanted outcomes. And NOT JUST IN MY CONVERSATIONS but in MY LIFE - both at work and at home. Oh dear.
It was most brutal, important and empowering "aha" moments I had ever had.
I knew that if I had created these outcomes from how I was focussed, I could create better results if I consciously chose to focus in the right way!
This launched me into my career as an executive & life coach.
In the years to follow I became dedicated to educating myself to the field of human behaviour and transformation. In addition to multiple coach education courses based on neuroscience, I learned other modalities such as mindfulness, neurolinguistic programming and hypnosis.
I have incorporated the best of each of these modalities and combined them with the knowledge gained from over a decade of 1 on 1 coaching experience to create the Empowering Conversations Program.
But you don't have to spend the next 10 + years learning all of this. You can take a short cut & condense your learning into just under 6 months & benefit from my years of experience.
YOU CAN DO THIS!
It's time to step into the leader you really are & empower yourself and others to take things to a new level of excellence.
How? CHANGE YOUR CONVERSATIONS - with yourself and others.
KEEP READING - you will see the importance of truly connecting & influencing athletes & others with ease & authenticity .
It took me over 50 courses, tens of thousands of dollars, 12 years of high performance conversations and months of continuous work, but I finally put what I know all in one place to share in a unique training so you can learn how to empower others through the art of conversation.
Now, I that I have piloted the Empowering Conversations Program (ECP) - the sum of my lifetime of experience in this area - I want to share it with business leaders like you.
Now, you can have empowering conversations too.
Inside the Empowering Conversations Program, there are 3 comprehensive modules & 19 in-depth units delivered via fortnightly video training lessons. You also get pdfs of the models, worksheets and audio files, fortnightly group coaching calls and fortnightly 1 on 1 partner practice calls to allow you to fully integrate the learnings.
Here's what you are going to get in the
Empowering Conversations Program (ECP):
MODULE 1: NEUROSCIENCE & INTENTIONAL CONVERSATIONS
9 Units covering:
MODULE 2: DRIVING CONVERSATIONS FORWARD
7 Units covering:
MODULE 3: EMBEDDING & TRANSFORMATION
3 Units covering:
you won't find another communications course like this.
Flexible, convenient, comprehensive
Many communication courses are delivered face to face as a one off workshop. You cannot embed significant permanent changes in one day.
Your brain learns by continued, consistent conscious focus & personal application of concepts.
The ECP allows you to permanently change the way you communicate so the changes are embedded & become your default way of conversing.
Each and everyday we have crucial conversations. Conversations where we influence others - for better or worse. Every conversation counts.
Wouldn't it be amazing to know that you leave others in a more powerful and inspired place after each conversation?
The only thing standing in your way is the knowledge and practice to understand where you might be going wrong and how you can set things right.
Even if you don't see yourself as an inspiring person or are new to your role & doubt your ability to fully support others to find their own best solutions, there is no need to worry.
The best way to start is by working with a proven system that produces a great result every time. All you have to do is apply the system.
Maybe you lack the confidence in even starting conversations that you know you need to have whether it is with staff, volunteers, or maybe your significant other?
And doesn't it make you feel guilty when you say something you didn't mean out of nervousness or anger?
We have all been there at some point in our past.
That's why I created the Empowering Conversations Program so you never have to feel doubtful and unsure again in conversations.
Just by reading this it is my hope that your entire perspective of what's possible to control in a conversation will change.
