    How to Combat the Negative Power of Complaining


    Whining. Carping. Bellyaching. Kvetching. Whatever you call it, we've all done it, and we've all been around others who have done it. Sometimes it is even good to do it. However, when complaining becomes unproductive, counterproductive, or habitual, it becomes a problem that must be addressed. That's because complaining can take a toll on us physically and mentally, and it can create toxic relationships both in our professional and private lives. Let's take a closer look at the negative power of complaining and steps we can take to avoid it or deal with it effectively.   .....Read More

    Tips for Making Good Decisions

    tips for making good decisions as a leader
    Earlier this month, President Trump announced that his administration is going to pull the United States out of the Paris climate agreement. It was certainly a bold decision, for while many in the United States applauded it, many other Americans and governments throughout the international community objected. As is often the case with decisions of this magnitude, the efficacy of this decision may not be known or understood for a number of years. However, as an important person who represents millions of diverse people in a position of supreme leadership, President Trump understood that the responsibility for making the decision ultimately rested on him, and he took the steps he deemed necessary to come to this significant conclusion.   .....Read More

  • Greg led our executive team through a leadership development program called Effective Personal Productivity. It dramatically helped our time management skills and leadership qualities. He likes to say that “change is a process, not an event.” This process made our entire executive team better and brought us closer together. Greg is energetic and passionate about people and their growth. As both a trainer and coach he is exceptional and as a business owner I recommend him highly.

    David Mielke, President, M.W. Mielke, Inc.

  • Your program, "Effective Personal Productivity," was very beneficial to me as president of HHL Group, Inc. I learned so much and am sure it will definitely affect the productivity of this firm. I would absolutely recommend you and your program to other businesses to help them be productive in their business and personal lives. Thank you for the opportunity to take part in the "Effective Personal productivity" program.

    Laurie Price, President, HHL Group

  • I thank you for all your time and I learned a lot and found the classes very knowledgeable and enlightening. I want to personally thank you for your training.

    Tim Ashburn, Project Superintendent, MW Mielke

  • I recently took the Effective Personal Productivity course with Greg as the facilitator for the program. He did a fantastic job presenting the material in a captivating way through the use of humor, great training materials and powerful real life examples. His passion and enthusiasm for the subject matter was evident through the entire 6 week course. Greg is a great presenter, teacher and motivator. He inspired me to make long lasting changes in both my personal and professional life. I would highly recommend participating in anything that Greg facilitates, and especially taking his course on personal productivity if you truly want to be a more productive and effective leader.

    Nicholas Standering, Director of Cultural Arts, City of Mentor

  • I want to thank you for introducing me to the EPF (Effective Personal Productivity) program offered by Leadership Management lnstitute. lt has had a powerful impact in my life. Having had an interest in personal development for quite some time, I was quite skeptical at first, thinking "l've probably heard all this before." Although the concepts of the program (Goals Achievement, Time Management, Controlling Priorities, Communications, Empowering the Team, and Team Productivity) were not foreign to me, I was pleasantly surprised at the process that LMI implements to achieve results. Most of the workshops, seminars, and training I have attended in my career have consisted of information, entertainment, or short-lived motivation. The LMI programs include the actual application of material and ideas. This makes all the difference. I am very pleased to state that t have been able to make measurable progress in my life and career as a result of your services. I would not hesitate to recommend your skills to anyone. Thank you again. 

    Jim Healey, Entrepeneur

  • The Personal Leadership and Productivity program proved to be of value on several levels. For our new senior management team, it generated camaraderie, trust and an appreciation for the workload each carries. The organizational tools, training on developing efficient work habits and focus on goal achievement will help each of us to better manage those workloads, enhance team communication and improve results. By the end, we felt that doing the important would win over the urgent and that the urgent would be reduced due to greater planning, communication and efficiency. Finding the way to practice greater work/life balance was a plus. Greg’s relaxed yet professional demeanor kept sessions and progress on track.
