Ron's Products and Services

A Roundtable is a small group of CEOs and Executives who meet regularly to support one another in solving problems and share best practices while improving their business and professional competencies.
Informal discussions in a safe marketing-free environment with your peer CEOs and Executives help you clarify issues and convert strengths, threats, and limitations into opportunities.

Ron conducts customized workshops for clients across the country. You can select the leadership skill area based on the titles and descriptions of training that Ron delivers for other clients (see Ron’s Custom Course Catalog) to assist you in developing ideas for your specific need. Or you can ask Ron to use his expertise to discover which aspects of leadership you need to be concerned about.

In every custom workshop, Ron starts by interviewing (in person or over the internet) a sample group of the planned attendees for the workshop to uncover issues that need addressing. Ron asks the tough questions that lead to rapid bottom-line results for you and your company. Next, Ron prepares a custom workbook full of interactive elements and rich content and finally delivers the content using the latest theories on learning and audience involvement.

Board or Management retreats will help you plan for your future and address critical decisions. A retreat is a rare opportunity for the board or management team to work at its “game” and to achieve a new standard of performance while energizing one another. While the goals for every retreat vary, the main point is to use this stress-free opportunity to accomplish something that can’t be done through routine meetings in the office.

Ron is an excellent facilitator who will foster open dialog and will ensure your team generates an aligned action plan for lasting and innovative improvements.
