What Mary Miscisin Talks About:

Showing Our True Colors
Each of us has our own style and way of operating – so how do we all work together? True Colors is a simple method for gaining insight into why people behave as they do. This interactive and fun-filled workshop helps audience members bring relationships to a whole new level as they learn to express their own uniqueness and increase their understanding of others. Learn how to turn irritation into appreciation by opening the lines of communication, embracing differences and bringing out the best in everyone.

Communicating Across the Spectrum with True Colors
This interactive workshop goes beyond the basics of True Colors and takes a closer look at various communication styles. Explore your preferred methods of communication and gain insight into the pet peeves and preferences of others. Reduce miscommunication and recognize what you can do to clearly get your message across in a mutually beneficial way.

Dealing with Conflict
Experience the misconceptions involved in most conflict, first-hand, in this lively presentation. Discover ways to get a grip on your emotions as well as how to respond effectively to others’ anger and accusations. Learn how to constructively manage conflict to improve relationships, open lines of communication and promote positive change. Get to the root of the problem instead of just dealing with the symptoms.

Teambuilding with True Colors
Working together with others can be a motivating, rewarding and fulfilling experience. There can also be numerous opportunities for stress and frustration if clear lines of communication, effective leadership and commitment are not present. Since each of us have our own way of doing things we must learn to operate synergistically to accomplish our goals. Mary helps bring staff together as a more cohesive team by proving activities that build upon the True Colors concepts to facilitate cooperation, teamwork and appreciation for each person’s contribution to the overall goal.

Stress Management
Experience the instant relief that laughter brings as you examine your own unique stress triggers. Learn to recognize the things you can change and how to cope with the things you simply cannot. This workshop goes beyond theory and puts into practice methods developed for modifying how you currently react in certain circumstances. It will help the participant pinpoint problem areas, evaluate alternatives and take action to relieve stress now.

A Colorful Approach to Wellness
Work demands, home responsibilities and life in general can pack our schedule with a long to-do list – sometimes while putting our health and well-being at risk. Exercising, eating nutritiously and getting enough sleep are just a few of the health habits that can be pushed to the back burner. The True Colors model holds the key to unlocking our health and well-being challenges by helping us identify our intrinsic motivators, strengths and barriers to our success. Once you understand how you’re wired, you can tap into the power of your True Colors to achieve the health goals you desire and deserve.
