Building Better Company Families One Laugh At a Time
Communication is truly the heart of everything. An effective leader is really nothing more than an effective communicator, one who can share the company vision in a way others can understand, relate to, and get excited about. The generational issues facing many of today’s industries are only ever solved when members of those different generations get together and start talking effectively and respectfully to one another. These are critical skills for all businesses – but learning them doesn’t have to be boring. With One Big Happy Family, Rex Havens offers a hysterical analysis of the ways we miscommunicate at work and what we should all do to maximize the possibilities of our professional relationships. Simply put, “One Big Happy Family” is the most entertaining communication and teambuilding seminar you will ever see. You’ll laugh like never before and come away with ideas and strategies which will make all of your relationships – professional and personal – stronger and more successful than they’ve ever been.
