Energizes Your Staff

Fulfills Your Specific Goals

Before Your Event

To serve you, we need to get to know you. We learn everything we can about your organization, your industry and what’s happening in your world. It’s the first step in building a trusting relationship with you.

Time to hear from you. What is most important to your organization? How do you stand out? What are you celebrating? What challenges are you facing? How do you want people to feel during and after the event?

From your input, we create a “map” of how your event will accomplish your objectives. It describes what we are doing and why, and we work on it until you are totally satisfied.

During Your Event

Unlike many speakers, we adjust to your schedule. We are ready to pivot if something changes last minute. Whatever happens, we are there for you.

Sometimes you want us to help you celebrate. Or maybe you want us to guide you through confusion or conflict. In either case, we ignite real conversations about who you want to be—and how you can Be There for each other.

A FISH! event is a chance to be curious, learn more about yourself and have fun. We don’t try to fill you with our “wisdom”. We’d rather inspire you to find the wisdom already inside you. That’s how you build personal commitment.

Often it takes just a slight shift in perspective to see things you never considered before. Maybe it’s letting go of habits that hold you back. Maybe it’s understanding better how your attitudes lift people up or drag them down. Whether you are analytical or emotional, FISH! can help you see new ways to succeed.

Organizational Takeaways

When you reach out to coworkers, including those you take for granted, they realize that “I am not alone. I am valued.” It’s a powerful way to break down silos, strengthen teamwork and inspire people to give their best.

People of all ages, including millennials, want a culture that is emotionally supportive. They value relationships and want to be appreciated. The FISH! Philosophy helps you build a workplace that attracts and retains great employees.

Outstanding service isn’t grounded in processes or scripts. It comes from understanding “I can make a positive difference for everyone I meet today.” Customers love being served by people who are genuine.

The FISH! Philosophy supports any vision, values and mission. It’s a simple, practical way to live your beliefs more consistently.

FISH! events emphasize being present for people who need you, showing appreciation and welcoming new ideas. Those are key skills for leaders today.

After Your Event

With each live event, you receive any FISH! Philosophy video learning program free. These programs are a perfect way to continue essential conversations that deepen staff relationships and strengthen your culture.

Our expert staff is always there for you to offer support and suggestions.

“Just wanted to thank you for a FANTASTIC program you delivered for our organization! We have received nothing but RAVE reviews. Many of us were very inspired, both by your stories as well as your facilitations.”

–  Pamela Duda Davis, Merck & Co., Inc.
