The document outlines Rachel Strella's rules for turning obstacles into opportunities. The rules include deciphering perception from reality, recognizing that obstacles don't define you, accepting that you can't help those who won't help themselves, preparing for opportunities, acknowledging that perfection is a myth, dealing with challenges that come up, and maintaining a positive attitude.

Organizations must change in order to grow. And change includes bringing in new talent and skill sets. But, change is hard, and, it’s particularly hard to embrace when you’re still tasked with keeping the engines running on a daily basis. The CEO of a 30-year-old advertising agency knows this challenge all too well: how do you disrupt a business model without disrupting business, all while assembling a team poised to seize the disruption to drive growth? In this session, hear lessons learned for striking a balance between the past, present and future. Learn how to coach leaders to thrive on changing course. And, hear how to strengthen company culture in the midst of change, and even rely on employees to become hiring ambassadors.

Attracting Donors

Strella Social Media

This presentation is not really about social media or fundraising. Yes, you read that correctly. It’s not about social media, fundraising or even technology because social media is only a tool to communicate and fundraising is only an outcome to a goal-driven plan. What we will discuss are principals that you already know and employ to attract donors as well as how you can accelerate awareness for attracting a new audience of potential donors. In fact, you may decide to rethink your current approach to fundraising efforts, but not because you’ve been doing it wrong – but, rather because you’ve been doing it right. Social media will be built into this discussion, but only as a means to establish or enhance what’s core to success on any front…relationships!

A Social Media Plan that Works

Strella Social Media

I’ve seen countless businesses and organizations fail to find their footing with social media simply because they don’t understand how social media works, their goals are simplistic, or they treat it like any other marketing outlet. In this presentation, we’ll cover areas of social media where many businesses ‘get stuck,’ including: • Determining the best social media channels for reach a target audience • Establishing goals that generate results • Building a social media audience on these channels • Planning a marketing strategy, including content development • Managing social media efforts with ease Learn both the why and the how of social media and see real results! http://strellasocialmedia.com/social-media-seminars/

Social Media Return on Investment

Strella Social Media

I’m going to offer you a very simplistic point of view about social media marketing. Here it goes: Build your stadium, fill your stadium, and make your fans cheer. Building your stadium is acquiring the media by setting up the pages correctly. Filling your stadium is growing your audience by attracting fans, followers and connections. Making them cheer is consistently posting valuable, engaging, and compelling content. Simple enough right? Well, for some. But I see a number of challenges with this formula. First – and the most common one I encounter – is that many people stop at Part 1. They call and ask me to ‘set-up a page for them’ and assume that’s all there is to it. Well social media is not a directory service so simply setting it up is just the starting point. Another challenge: some will focus too much energy on either building their audience or posting great content. The truth is, there needs to be a balance of both. For example, if you spend hours writing content and you only have 7 Facebook fans it’s not doing you much good. While strong content is foundational, people won’t magically flock to your page. At the same time, if you have 20,000 fans and horrible content, it simply means you have a large audience but you don’t have their attention. Again, it’s a balance of both that make social media powerful. Let’s break this down further into the steps you need to take in order to achieve your social media ROI. Now, comes the big question… how do we receive a return on our investment of time and money into social media? In what ways can we monetize social media as a small business? I’ll be honest with you. It’s going to require some work, but fortunately for you, I’m giving you the formula for actualizing your investment.

Topics Covered:  Making the shift to social  Popular social media channels  Why colleges should be using social media  College and university trends  Departmental ideas  An action plan for going social

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...

Suzanne Lagerweij

This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2). This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick). Abstract: Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change? Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice. We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick). In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work. Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!
