Geoffrey James Speaking Topics

12 Difficult Coworkers (and How to Cope with Them)

Almost every workplace suffers from frustrating coworkers whose attitudes and behaviors limit their ability to contribute. This light-hearted, fast-paced, hour-long program helps you identify and understand these personality types so that you can get them out of your hair and back on track. Warning: You may recognize yourself in some of the profiles! Intended audience: general business professionals.

How to Sell When You Hate Selling

Even though they know it's essential to the growth of their practice, many professionals find it difficult to sell. This hour-long program identifies the reasons behind that reluctance, helps professionals overcome it and simplifies selling into an integral and positive element within the client relationship. Intended audience: doctors, lawyers, optometrists, audiologists, etc.

How to Be Happier at Work

Most speakers take a 60,000 foot view of the business world, explaining how to make companies nimble, encourage better work/life balance, create a better culture and so forth. Unfortunately, these "big picture" views always prescribe strategies that would take years to implement, if they ever get implemented at all. In this speech I take a 6 foot, eye-to-eye view of the business world. Geoffrey explains how you--yes, you--can get more enjoyment out of your current job. This isn't rose-colored motivational fluff but the practical application of neuroscience to overcome frustration and embrace the joy of your work, starting right now.
