Rapid change in one of seven specific areas ...

Man coaching someone The Focused Change process is designed to rapidly improve an individual’s interactive capabilities in a very specific, single area of interest. Focused Change is an answer to the need for short-term, precise refinement with our time-pressed clientele. It uses the communications core developed by Change Masters®. The coaching is built on the CLEARLI attributes described in our book Seeing Yourself as Others Do utilizing the related survey on Authentic Executive Presence. The book is included as a part of the process as an advanced reading assignment.

There are seven Focus Areas behaviors that we have had great success over many years at making changes quickly. We work on one area at a time. If there are multiple areas that a client desires to improve, one of the other individual coaching packages will probably be a better fit.

1. Selling Your Ideas and Your Team	Your Work Doesn't Speak for Itself
2. Mastering Your Non-Verbal Impact	That's Not What I Meant!
3. Clear, Concise, Compelling Content	Get to the Point!
4. Inspiring Others	Authentic Motivation and Praise
5. Setting Clear Expectations	Holding People Accountable
