Dialogue in the Desert
The Original Strategic Thinking, Planning
& Leadership Workshop
April 18-23, 2010
Sept. 26 - Oct. 1, 2010
What Will You Take Away?
How Will You Benefit?
What Will You Learn?




Dialogue gives you thinking, planning, persuasion, communication and leadership tools that you simply can’t find elsewhere–and the time to practice putting them to use, so when you return you’re experienced with them. Our tools give you greater focus, clarity and confidence that will be evident in all aspects of your work and your life.
The Agenda is full from morning and into the evening. Some days we begin with the sunrise for a walk in the desert, and some sessions go into the evening after dinner. It’s complete, but balanced and we have immense fun while we learn serious tools. Again, everything about Dialogue is hands-on learning around the issues you are facing.
Here is just a sampling of what you’ll learn:
- Tools for becoming a strategic business partner and a leader in your company or your organization.
- Tools for thinking strategically about your function and your role.
- How to identify the true business needs in your organization and devise a plan to meet them.
- Tools for thinking strategically during times when you are called upon to react immediately.
- How to use our innovative Strategic Mapping Process to think, analyze and plan your work.
- How to design a plan that speaks to bottom-line business issues, the kind executives listen to.
- How to advance your own leadership skills and gain broader executive presence.
- How to make powerful formal/informal presentations and draw out resistance with our Present-O-Matic® persuasion and presentation process.
- How to have more confidence and a stronger voice in meetings and presentations so that when you speak, others listen.
- How to use our unique Invent-O-Matic® process to brainstorm solutions to lingering issues.
- How to bring focus and direction to your work and gain more confidence in your negotiations with others.
- You’ll work on your organization’s issues. We know of no other workshop that is this individually tailored and hands-on.
- You’ll learn not only from Joe Williams, but from your fellow workshop participants–everyone is a consultant to each other.
- The tools you’ll learn can be applied to any company, organization or function, as well as to your own professional development and career growth that will stay with you wherever you go!
