Need to improve your organization's culture and performance, but don't know where to start?
Does your organization have a written cultural rule that "you are candid and transparent," and yet when debriefing a failed initiative the unwritten rule tends to be "we disclose selectively?"
Chances are your organization is suffering from one of the"The Four Culture Killers":
- Cultures of Silence exist when people feel unable to speak up and share their questions or concerns with others – even if what they have to say is in the best interest of the organization.
- Cultures of Collusion exist when people fail to hold others accountable for things like missed deadlines, violated expectations, bad behavior - especially horizontally and upward.
- Cultures of Cynicism exist when leaders are not skilled at influencing rapid, profound, and sustainable behavior change — and their employees are tired of enduring one failed initiative after another.
- Cultures of Resistance exist when people fail to engage in self-directed change and instead tolerate career and life-limiting habits resulting in chronic poor performance.
Discover How to Create a High-Performance Culture
If your organization is looking to solve these common problems and create a "high performance culture," we invite you to be our guest at an exclusive Executive Briefing. At these invitation-only events, you'll join other training leaders and executives for breakfast and hear a New York Times bestselling author give a hands-on introduction to the skills taught in the award-winning and highly-acclaimed training courses from VitalSmarts.

What Will I Learn?*
During these complimentary, half-day events, you will learn how the skills taught in the VitalSmarts training programs help individuals and organizations create "high performance cultures" that foster an environment where individuals can:
- Speak up openly and candidly with anyone about almost anything — especially when the stakes are high, emotions run strong, and opinions vary.
- Respectfully address patterns of bad behavior and hold each other accountable when expectations and promises are broken.
- Use multiple sources of influence to change entrenched behaviors aimed at teams or entire organizations.
- Successfully solve any individual behavior challanges — at work or at home.
As a training leader, you will also see multiple options for bringing these training programs into your organization.
What Will I Receive for Attending?
Briefing participants will receive the following:
- Light breakfast
- Three hours with a bestselling author and thought leader
- Your choice of four New York Times bestsellers: Crucial Conversations, Crucial Confrontations, Influencer or Change Anything.
- Training overview materials and rollout information
- Special discounts on 2-day Public Workshops
- Exclusive White Paper: The Four Crucial Skills of a Cultural Operating System
