RESOURCE LIBRARY

I have created a Resource Library for you to use during our time together. The Library consists of videos, exercises, ebooks and other writing I have done over the years including outlines of workshops, teleclasses, leadership challenges, audio recordings I call Sound Bites, visualizations and my Power Stories ebook with exercises accompanying each story. We will tailor for you what resources will be most useful in our work together. However, feel free to use any elements of the Resource Library that you wish to.

Power Stories are intended to amuse you. They can also teach you. Many of you deal every day with the ups and downs of the work world. Surviving these ups and downs is easier when you look through the lens of personal power at work. What is that lens? It is when you see your work world as a cast of characters and situations specially designed to challenge you and to help you learn and grow.

Power Stories are filled with characters and situations you may recognize. Enjoy them. Learn from them. And most importantly, use them to understand how power in the workplace operates. (Each ~5 minutes.)

Sound Bites Power Stories Exercises

This Sound Bite is a companion to the six Sound Bite Power Stories. For each Power Story, a written exercise presents you with questions to help you put the lessons that the lead character learned in the story into practice for yourself. The six exercises are:

What are you tolerating?
(Jane and The Apple Tree)
Are you trapped or staying too long?
(Tommy and the Dragon)
Are you following your dreams?
(Michael and the Flying Horse)
What is your gift?
(Priscilla’s Gift)
Are you living within boundaries set by others instead of yourself?
(Joni’s Forest)
Do you hold yourself back by resisting change?
(George and the Triangle Harness?)
