Seven Reasons Women Lose:

  1. Women have been 100 years behind men in full time career-building.
  2. The mommy track is treacherous.
  3. Women don't have enough women mentors or role models.
  4. Women who are ambitious and conscientious often forget to nourish relationships.
  5. Women who have the same "edge" as a man are often misunderstood.
  6. Women forget that 85% of their colleagues are conflict avoidant.
  7. Women want to get the job done and sometimes forget to get the people done.

This forum will present ideas from Hollands' and Steck's top selling books:

Red-Ink Behavior and the Bottom Line: How to Address the High-Cost of "Bad Behavior"
Date: Jnauary 17th, 2007
Time: 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM
Place: Growth & Leadership Center

Jean Hollands, Founder & JP McDermott, VP

 

The impact of Red Ink Behaviors is immense.
The cost is exponential.
Intervening quickly...Priceless.

Red Ink Behavior happens simply when any organization tolerates negative behaviors--whether it comes from an individual, a manager, a team, or whole department. The result is lost time, money, missed project deadlines and market windows, low moral and recurring replacement costs, to name a few. We have a method to measure how much "Bad Behavior" really costs companies--in real time and real dollars.

Sample Red Ink Behaviors:

  • Poor anger management
  • Arrogance
  • Decision-making reluctance
  • Crisis priority management
  • Political sabotage
  • Public criticism of direct reports
  • Pervasive micromanagement
  • Inflexible: cannot adapt
  • Withholds communication / information
