DISC Training + Impact Reports

DISC METHOD WORKSHOP

Your individual personality affects every aspect of your life. That’s why one of the best things you can do to grow yourself and others is to understand your personality and what naturally drives you. When you recognize your strengths and weaknesses, you are able to give your best as you work with people around you.

Values Exercise

values-exercise-leadership-cards

WHAT ARE VALUES CARDS?

The Values Cards exercise will help you clarify your values and serve as a guide to help you make your best decisions. When you know your teammates values, you will know better how to understand and lead them.Each deck identifies specific values along with their definitions. You’ll also get instructions on how to narrow down your choices to your top three to five values.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Once you understand the unique values of everyone on your team, don’t try to lead them all in the same way. Lead them uniquely based on what they value. In doing this, you will find common ground and gain their respect.

What We discovered

As we’ve taken thousands of leaders through this exercise, we’ve discovered 3 things:

People realize that this is the first time they have really thought about their values in a professional setting

01.

02.

People are aware of their values but did not realize they have been compromising them

03.

People are aware of their values AND have kept them, but were not aware of the values of those who work for them and how they may be compromising their values

A mastermind is a gathering of like-minded people who desire to focus on and achieve their goals through the study of a specific set of information and or book. Masterminds can be an extremely powerful tool to take your thinking and actions (and therefore results) to the next level!

By offering a unique opportunity to learn from others’ perspectives and experiences, these groups serve as an outlet for participants to share their individual challenges and successes within the workplace.

This course is a great reminder of why we lead and how to best lead. It helps shine a light on our motivations for leading, and encourages a great deal of introspection.
— Diana, CNM, Women4Women
I highly recommended Mastermind classes for anyone looking to grow both personally and professionally! I always take away new ideas and perspectives from the content and guided group discussions with Alexa. Mastermind groups challenge me to dig deep within myself. The groups have been crucial to refining my communication styles, learning to adapt to other communication styles, as well as evolving my leadership skills. I have found these classes to be invaluable!

The program exceeded my expectations. Alexa is a natural classroom leader and the discussions flowed smoothly.

How it works

CHOSE YOUR TOPIC

From a list of over 75 books, the options are limitless when it comes to choosing a book topic that suits your team’s needs. Topic categories include: leadership, communication, attitude, personal growth and more.

01.

PICK YOUR TIMELINE

Groups are offered anywhere from 4-12 weeks. We have found longer groups to be most beneficial for those with heavy workloads as this gives team members an adequate amount of time to read and apply the content.

02.

03.

GOAL SETTING

In our first session together we will discuss the goals of each indiviudal team member. This will give us a starting point to refer back to several times throughout the course.

04.

LEARNING

Each week we will re- evaluate our goals, and make adjustments based on our new learned perspectives.

05.

APPLICATION

Participants will be challenged to take an action step each week that they will report on in the following session.

Sales Training

THE MAXWELL METHOD OF SELLING

This introduces the fundamentals of selling and marketing – skills that are essential for every leader, manager, business owner or professional.

Selling is essential for any business or profession. Whether you are looking for new business or applying for a new position to advance your career, unless you know how to sell, you will not have a successful outcome. Put another way, “nothing happens until someone sells something”.

WHAT TO EXPECT

From understanding your value proposition and the power of branding to knowing specifically who to target for your services, this material is useful for those who are brand-new to the art and science of selling, as well as to those who are experienced in selling.

The following sales skills training will equip you with the strategies and techniques to become comfortable with the sales process, conduct sales conversations with confidence, win business proposals, and increase revenue.

  • Leadership is influence and everyone influences someone. When you start to be intentional about growing yourself and the relationships around you, things naturally get better.

    Oftentimes, we buy into the lie that leadership is simply positional but it’s not. If you’ve ever been a part of an organization in which people say “that’s not my job”, you may be in a positional leadership environment.

    People in a positional leadership environment only follow the leaders in the organization because they have to.

    My job is to help you and your team move beyond a positional leadership mindset and into one of influence and moral authority (people follow you because they want to).

  • There are many reasons that an individual or team might choose to work with a coach, including:

    • There is something at stake: a challenge, stretch goal or opportunity

    • There is a gap in knowledge, skills, confidence, or resources

    • There is a desire to accelerate results

    • There is a lack of clarity, and there are choices to be made

    • Work and life are out of balance, and this is creating unwanted consequences

    • One has not identified his or her core strengths and how best to leverage them

  • Studies show that it takes 2 years to see a work culture improve. My desire is to help you transform the culture of your team by equipping you with ongoing tools for growth.

    My level of involvement looks different for each client relationship as I really listen to what each team needs from me as their coach. Along the way we will evaluate your team’s needs and desired areas for growth to ensure we are taking the right steps to get there.

  • Yes. As a certified Maxwell DISC trainer I have access to assessments that can help you in the process of recruiting quality talent.

    The Maxwell Benchmark and Interview Report helps you to establish a benchmark in which you can assess, evaluate, and compare the strengths of a potential member to the current strengths and standards of the team.

    This report will provide you specific interview questions based on how close the potential team member is to the current benchmarks you have created.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • I work with teams of all sizes ranging from 5 team members up to 50.

  • After our 45 minute discovery call I will put together a proposal for you to look at which will include options for a first engagement based on your budget and desired goals. Once we agree upon a service option I will then invoice you.

    I accept checks, ACH, and also provide payment links with a service fee. All payments must be submitted prior to the rendering of services as I have to account for preparation on the front end.

  • Because every industry is different, I recognize that finding time to meet with your team can be a challenge. I do my best to work with your schedule so that we can arrange training that adds value while also honoring everyone’s time.

    I offer training options from 1-2.5 hrs. The same applies for frequency of meetings. For ongoing series, I schedule those weekly or bi-weekly.

  • Studies show that leaders who invest into their teams experience increased productivity, improved morale, increased levels of engagement and effective feedback.

    By bringing out the best in your team, they in turn feel motivated to perform at a higher level.

What Clients Are Saying

  • I highly recommend Alexa and the Leadership Training & Team Building DISC Workshop. It has been an eye-opening experience for us as we learned more about ourselves and our teammates we work alongside every day. We originally had just our bank officers participate in the DISC assessments and workshop but found the experience so valuable that we added all members of our commercial and private banking teams to this program so we can all better communicate with one another moving forward. It has really helped us to understand that our differing personality and communications styles cumulatively create a better organization; therefore, removing obstacles to reaching our goals!

    – Andy Kattos, Regional President & CEO, ServisFirst Bank

  • Alexa is an amazing facilitator. She was able to apply the principles of John Maxwell to a medical setting with no medical background herself. She showed us these principles are universal.

    —Dr. Anne Marie Reidy, Owner, Women4Women

  • Alexa conducted a leadership game for our BOMA of North Alabama members in mid-2021. As one of our first in person meetings post COVID-19 (2020), Alexa knocked it out of the park. Our members were engaging with one another and honing in on the core values of leadership. Several members have requested another luncheon with Alexa in the near future!

    —Shelby Smith, BOMA (Leadership Game)

  • "The Leading through Crisis group was was more timely than I could have imagined. Navigating the nuances of working in a pandemic were made much easier, and even fun, because of this group. I loved connecting with other leaders and exchanging ideas for how to best capitalize on this unique time in business. John’s teachings are exceptional and Alexa did a fantastic job diving deeper into the content and pushing us toward growth. I left the group with new connections and took a next step by joining Alexa’s Leadershift course to push myself even further. I highly recommend investing in yourself and your leadership by taking this course!"

    -Lindsey Tapscott, Davidson Homes LLC

  • Growth is not a race. There is no finish line because we never stop growing. Before this class I put so much pressure on myself and where I was in life as if I had to achieve my goals within a deadline. Now it’s become a daily habit I am making to consistently learn.
