Staff Development

Teach, Guide and Motivate

The goal of our staff development seminars - whether we are talking to the new kid on the block or the most seasoned professional in the business - is to teach, guide, and motivate. Each seminar is designed to:

  • Raise questions
  • Focus on solutions
  • Reinforce positive behaviors
  • Energize the individual
  • Encourage creative thinking
  • Help each person to see the importance of his/her role in the organization.

One-on-One Training

The emphasis is on training the individual to work effectively within the team. We focus on the individual to:

  • Enhance attitude
  • Sharpen skills
  • Promote proficiency
  • Foster personal success.

Seminars for Higher Ed

While we primarily provide staff development for enrollment management professionals, we also offer seminars for marketing and advancement staffs, senior administrators, trustees, and faculty and staff campus-wide. Over 1,500 colleges nationwide have benefited from our training seminars.

We come to your campus. That way your entire staff can attend, and you won’t incur any travel expenses. Our seminars range from half-day to two-days in length to multiple day modules.

"I have about 2 pages of bullet points to work on! This is definitely something enrollment offices should consider. Its good information for new counselors and important reminders of basics and encouragement of new strategies for experienced counselors."

Jill Paulson

Director of Admissions, Mount Marty College in Yankton, SD

"I hoped to get the staff engaged in conversations about recruiting effectively, learning techniques and concepts they were unfamiliar with. Dave did a great job drawing everyone out and holding their attention. This is what we needed. I would tell other VPs and Directors to do this seminar."

Sue Bibeau

Associate Vice President of Enrollment Management, Mitchell College

"As a middle manager, consultants provide significant services. A good consultant gives you credibility with your administration and with your staff. Whether it's helping you align with best practices or affirming the messages and plans you have in place, the consultant helps to establish consensus and enthusiasm for the job. Jeanne has energized our recruitment staff by providing practical tools and challenging them to be better Admissions Counselors."
