SPEAKING TOPICS

Nick Saunders is a keynote speaker who has helped improve relationships in all sorts of organisations, in all sorts of industries, in all sorts of countries – in the corporate world, in education and in the not-for-profit sector.

Inspiring, relevant and fun, Nick is a plain talking, down to earth speaker who avoids (at all costs) any management-speak, high-brow lingo, gobbledygook – or any ridiculous claims about building a smarter planet or becoming a tiger.

Nick’s known as The Family Man because, in many ways, he offers the view that workplaces are like families; you can choose your friends, but families and work colleagues you’re stuck with. However, you can still get on with them and Nick illustrates how…by turning relationships into results.

Outstanding Teamwork

Many teams are good – but few are great.

To achieve a high performance team requires vision, compatibility, drive, commitment and mutual respect. Teamwork is about individuals working together to accomplish more than they could alone. It’s achieved by harnessing, pooling and utilising the resources available to the team – individual strengths, skills and experience. Outstanding teamwork starts from understanding how to get the best out of people, how to develop stronger relationships and how to get everyone working together. Genuine teamwork increases efficiency, morale and performance.

Clear Communication & Collaboration

Getting on well with people at work is paramount; it gets the job done. However, in every organisation there will be times when colleagues don’t get on. We’ve all experienced incidents of niggles, frustrations, strained relationships, personality clashes, friction and conflict. Nick is the guy who fixes this – by enabling people, colleagues and teams to work together more effectively, collaborate more successfully, function more professionally…all of which leads to improved performance.

Nick Saunders shares a powerful, practical, pragmatic 6 step model that enables colleagues to get on with, cooperate with and interact with anyone and everyone.

Conflict Resolution

Conflict at work can cause significant problems, and it’s by no means uncommon.

• 4 in 10 of us report being involved in interpersonal conflict at work
• Managers spend on average 20% of their time dealing with conflict issues
• The CBI estimates that conflict in the workplace costs the UK economy £33 billion every year

It goes without saying that organisations would benefit significantly by minimizing conflict and finding ways to enable people to work together more effectively, resulting in better results on a day to day basis. The good news is there is a way to help colleagues relate to anyone (particularly in tricky situations) which in turn helps maximise the impact and effectiveness they have in their roles.
