This workshop will help you quickly master the fundamentals and develop a comprehensive understanding of how they work\, how to interpret them accurately\, and how to use their information to make more effective\, better-informed business decisions that have a positive impact on your organization’s bottom line. You will also learn the importance of a dashboard and how to easily set one up for your company. \n  \nSession 3: Personal Performance (November 16\, 2022) \nCritical thinking is a lost art. Whether you are refining operations\, evaluating strategic plans\, or brainstorming better ways to assist customers\, businesses with the best ideas come out on top. This workshop will teach you how to recognize key mistakes that company leaders make which undermine their effectiveness at running and growing a company.  You will also walk away with tips that you can implement immediately to improve your personal performance and help you reach your full potential to build an amazing team.  If YOU want to build an amazing team\, it starts with YOU! \n  \nSession 4: What is Your USP? & Communication (November 30\, 2022) \nAre you tired of feeling invisible in your field\, of not being recognized for your talents and expertise? Are you losing potential customers to your competitors solely because your prices are higher? Many professionals have felt the same way and decided to do something about it. The answer lies in the strength and value of your USP. This workshop will teach you the art and science of identifying what sets you apart and turning that into a brand that will make you more valuable and memorable than others in your field. \nThis Seminar is Hosted by ABC Member Paramount Business Development

Series 1 will be held on Wednesday\, August 24th\, September 7th\, September 21st & October 5th. Series 2 will start October 19th and Series 3 will start up in 2023. \nSession 1: Leader’s Right Mindset (August 24\, 2022) \nMany people believe that being the owner\, boss or holding some sort of management position is what defines leadership. Paramount Business Development\, Inc. KNOWS this is totally false. True leadership is hard\, and it is not something that can be achieved overnight. It is a slow and steady process that happens over years and years of practice and it all starts with little habits. Join us for a morning to discover the 7 habits of highly effective leaders that you can start practicing today that will help you become the leader you want to be tomorrow. \n  \nSession 2: Communicating Simply & Effectively (September 7\, 2022) \nWorkplace communication is crucial to companies because it enables them to be productive and operate effectively. When a company can communicate correctly\, employees can experience an increase in morale\, productivity\, and commitment. How well do you communicate with your team? More importantly\, how often do you communicate with your team? Join us as we discuss real life examples of communication problems in companies and how you can better lead your team to success. \n  \nSession 3: When Things Go Awry?! (September 21\, 2022) \nWe’ve discussed how crucial workplace communication is to a company\, but what happens when things go wrong? Not all problems can be anticipated or resolved. People are complicated and there’s no owner’s manuals. This workshop will review communication strategies\, discuss real life conflicts within organizations\, and present several effective strategies to handle those conflicts. \n  \nSession 4: Managing Overwhelm (October 5\, 2022) \nAre you feeling pressured by deadlines?  Is there never enough time in the day?  Are you working longer and longer hours\, while getting further behind? Win your time back in this 4-hour workshop where we will show you how to master your use of time\, complete your most critical tasks\, and overcome that constant feeling of being overwhelmed. \nThis seminar will be hosted by ABC Member Paramount Business Development.
