CCC Seminar - Work/Life Effectiveness - THE HR Issue of the next decade!

With the globalization of business, we all operate in a world of cost management, downsizing, and doing “more with less” simply to stay competitive. A by-product of these trends is higher stress on employees, many doing the work of 2 or more people, burnout and even resignation. And despite the best efforts of leaders to implement new technologies and HR programs to help, the topic of “Work and Life Balance” is inarguably THE burning issue for employees in nearly every sector of business and every geography. It is truly a global organizational issue!

The solution is to help employees understand and employ their own strategies to cope and manage work and their private lives. Each person and each personal situation is unique—there is no “one size fits all”. It’s about empowering employees to develop their own programs to fit their lives.

CCC is proud to offer one of the world’s most proven successful programs, offered by Jim Lafferty. EquiLIVErium is a power-packed 2 hour training in which Jim shares his personal 20 year journey as a senior executive, in the trenches, from unsatisfactory to wonderful work and life balance. Finding satisfaction in career, family, personal interests, and all walks of life!

Jim’s program of 16 proven strategies is delivered in a punchy and dynamic, highly personal manner that deeply impacts all participants and leaves them armed to make immediate improvements. In fact, Jim promises that he will help them improve their work and life balance—or EquiLIVErium---within 48 hours! And every single participant over the past 5 years of this program will agree!

Jim has delivered this program to some of the world’s most successful companies---P&G, GE, HSBC, Nestle, Microsoft, Wal-Mart, Target just to name a few. He has also delivered this presentation to multiple forums, with consistent standing ovations! Over the past 5 years Jim has delivered over 150 sessions to over 100,000 executives and helped them improve their balance.

There is no better way to help your employees improve their own EquiLIVErium. There is no better investment in your people. And there is no better way to invest only 2 hours in training!

Below is a sample of comments from a session recently with a Fortune 20 Company, in which Jim was part of a HR forum and was the highest rated speaker of all internal and external presenters.

 

Work Life Effectiveness - James Lafferty

I loved this session. Jim's advice was extremely relevant and I enjoyed his personal stories. He gave great, practical advice.

If anyone can change my life, it's him.

Very engaging session with some actionable take-a-ways

The best part of the session...what a great way to complete HRDF

LOVED LOVED LOVED this speaker. What an amazing discussion. Thank you for bringing Jim in and as a duel GE career household, with 2 small children, I will be showing the video to my husband!!

Terrific speaker who was able to relate to everyone. His 16 coping strategies are very realistic and helpful.

Can we carbon copy Jim Lafferty? I would love to show some of my clients what a true 21st century leader looks/acts like. His session was life changing and we really need to get his message out to more people in the company. I really hope we can get access to the recording as I would gladly watch him again and would love to do so with my husband. This message was excellent, and came at a great time for me, when I could really use implementing some of these strategies.

LOVED this presentation!! Was refreshing, brutally honest and had great take-aways for me. Would recommend opening to a broader audience (video, etc).

Really changed my perspective...built personally on the dreams discussion with Matthew Kelley. What was eye opening for me was to realize how much variability there was along the work-life 5 point scale he used...and realized there's something I can do about it besides going to my boss...lots of discussion afterwards with colleagues.

James was incredible... I cried on the drive home thinking about his presentation! I've also put into action my "action plan" around work/life balance and have already started on some of the steps.

Resonated with me on a number of levels. If I am able to effectively implement just a few of the strategies he presented, I believe my ability to achieve a better work-life balance will be enhanced.

Very engaging speaker with practical tools. Nice to add this topic and acknowledge the need to think about this more intentionally.

Outstanding and emotional...we hope to be able to bring this content to Aviation in some way.

Life changing - already putting into practice strategies

The absolute best presentation. Hit home and impacted me personally.

Excellent real-life examples of how to gain control of your life

Very inspiring. Good take-aways to improve work-life effectiveness

my favorite session of all -- very inspirational & the first w/l balance seminar with actual usable strategies

Excellent session ... highly recommend to others!

This was likely my favorite session of the week. The speaker was so passionate and connected to the topic. It came off very authentic and also useful to our personal and work lives.

Excellent speaker - really hit home - would like to share video with our teams if possible

Inspiring and provided excellent take-aways that can be used to make improvements in our personal situations

Emotional roller coaster - very well done.

Loved him!! Have already implemented some of his suggestions :)

Great idea to end on this session. I did and have done a lot of thinking on his message since the conference.

I have to say that this was my favorite session overall. What I liked most about this session was that it focused on me as an individual and as an employee. I liked how James tied his entire presentation around supporting the business. Being a better person individually will help me to be a better employee. And after all...isn't that what GE wants??

I found this to be inspirational and incredibly engaging. Definitely a treat to hear from James Lafferty!

Loved it. What a great way to end the 2-day session.

Great session, would be great to share with client groups

All I can say is WOW thought provoking

Very insightful and though provoking on a personal level. Very much enjoyed!

Nice change of pace...if the video of this session becomes available, it will get a lot of use

Good session. Good timing. I've already shared the idea of the 100 things to do before I die with my husband. We've been working on our lists and looking forward to spending time together to check off items. He did

A pitch that could only be given by an external speaker. The way he made it personal gives the message legs. The best session by far. I have implemented over 5 of his ideas and am seeing results.
