Event Plan­ners:

We Want You to Achieve Excellence

I will per­son­ally design each expe­ri­ence to per­fectly fit your sit­u­a­tion and needs.
My goal is to make your job, as a meet­ing plan­ner, sim­ple and fun.
In con­sul­ta­tion with you, I’ll design an event that will bring you the recog­ni­tion you deserve!
Act now, and I’ll help you to meet and exceed your goals.
Wayne C. Allen

Par­tic­i­pants:

No mat­ter what the topic, our com­mit­ment to you is the same –

You will mas­ter prac­ti­cal tech­niques for increas­ing your cre­ativ­ity. You will find and deepen your sense of pur­pose. And most of all, you will go home with a cus­tomized action plan – with the tools and the moti­va­tion nec­es­sary to make pow­er­ful, life-altering change.
You will learn to:

  • achieve suc­cess through per­sonal empow­er­ment, clear com­mu­ni­ca­tion, and “liv­ing your passion.”
  • replace stress-causing behav­iours with an atten­tive, focused, and mind­ful lifestyle.
  • use “active lis­ten­ing” com­mu­ni­ca­tion skills to reach mutual goals with a direct­ness and clar­ity that will astound you.
  • find, deepen, and strengthen your cre­ativ­ity through visu­al­iza­tion, goal-clarification, and “forward-pacing.”
  • develop and max­i­mize your per­sonal self-worth by learn­ing to be open, hon­est, and direct in every relationship.
  • dis­cover, embrace and build upon your per­sonal vocation.

Keynotes & Events that Change Lives


No Offense –
learn­ing to com­mu­ni­cate with­out annoy­ing, sti­fling, or anger­ing yourself.

Despite end­less oppor­tu­ni­ties to prac­tice, most of us do not com­mu­ni­cate very well. We might have taken a work­shop or two, or exper­i­mented with a Com­mu­ni­ca­tion Model at home, but find that things get dicey quickly when con­fronted with con­flicts at work.

This work­shop is designed to help you learn the most pow­er­ful and effec­tive com­mu­ni­ca­tion style for work sit­u­a­tions — the bot­tom line is respected, while we find the means to reach both con­sen­sus and “buy in.“


In this day-long work­shop, we’ll explore:

  • the dif­fer­ence between per­sonal com­mu­ni­ca­tion and busi­ness dialogue
  • why we take things per­son­ally, and how to let go of the pain and drama
  • how to neu­tral­ize ver­bal attacks
  • how to turn con­fronta­tion to consensus
  • the ele­gant use of “I” language
  • what to do when you reach an impasse
  • why your feel­ings are inter­est­ing yet irrel­e­vant in a busi­ness environment

We’ll exam­ine the Com­mu­ni­ca­tion Model, and dis­sect how to use it effec­tively. We’ll be clear on the dif­fer­ence between how we com­mu­ni­cate with friends and loved ones, and how this approach must be mod­i­fied in a busi­ness environment.

We’ll prac­tice speak­ing clearly, while at the same time learn­ing our trig­gers — the events that we anger or upset our­selves over.

We’ll develop strate­gies for learn­ing the pat­terns of the peo­ple we com­mu­ni­cate with — so we begin to ask intel­li­gent ques­tions that lead to com­mon­al­i­ties and consensus.

We’ll explore the moti­va­tions and tac­tics of ver­bal bul­ly­ing — you’ll dis­cover how to “just watch” — thereby neu­tral­iz­ing the for­ward momen­tum of the attack.

You’ll gain an under­stand­ing of all the ways you “get in your own way” when things become dif­fi­cult, and you’ll dis­cover tech­niques for get­ting your­self back on track.

You’ll find the tools to stop blam­ing, or expect­ing the other per­son to look after you or do it your way, while at the same time enact­ing a way of com­mu­ni­cat­ing that has the best poten­tial for get­ting your point of view across.

This highly inter­ac­tive work­shop is designed to pro­vide you with the infor­ma­tion, sup­port, tools, and per­spec­tives you need to excel at busi­ness com­mu­ni­ca­tion, and to effec­tively make you imper­vi­ous to ver­bal game-playing and one-upmanship.
You’ll leave this event with a sense of humour about your own com­mu­ni­ca­tion style, and an under­stand­ing of why oth­ers react the way they do. From this place of know­ing, you’ll be empow­ered to design ele­gant and mind­ful dia­logue designed to move you and your co-workers forward.

The Zen of Being Col­lab­o­ra­tive –
tools for empow­ered project development

Our favourite way to develop new processes and projects is to involve a wide range of peo­ple in struc­tured brain-storming sessions.

Exam­ple: We once invited a cus­to­dian to an accountant’s meet­ing, and he pointed out the obvi­ous — there were three copies of every­thing in the trash, and sev­eral peo­ple had weeded through all of it — invoices went dig­i­tal the next week!

We teach you a method of break­ing down any project into chunks, and then gen­er­at­ing cross-pollinated ideas that dove-tail together in sim­ple and ele­gant ways.


You’ll discover:

  • How to Choose a Frame­work — we’ll explore our Re-Shape It sys­tem for project assembly
  • Why it’s vital to fol­low a struc­tural theme — the project overview is essen­tial for focus­ing in on what we’re work­ing on. The struc­tural theme pro­vides the frame that con­tains the project
  • Meth­ods for Work­ing in a Mod­u­lar Fash­ion — we’ll explore the 5 w’s in the con­text of the over-all project. We’ll break the project down in non-traditional ways. (Remem­ber the cus­to­dian?) We’ll break the mould of who does what when, and why?
  • The Power of Get­ting Famil­iar With Less — we intro­duce the idea of effi­ciency — find­ing what we call the min­i­mal nec­es­sary point that elim­i­nates bot­tle­necks, dupli­ca­tion, and need­less complexity
  • Pre­ven­tive Mea­sures that Save Time And Money — often, we re-invent the wheel. The mod­u­lar approach means that “chunks of process” can be effec­tively inserted into future projects.
    ***Sim­ply put, pre­ven­ta­tive mea­sures are the key. Stan­dard­iz­ing basic busi­ness prac­tices ensures that all projects run smoothly. This per­co­lates down to more money saved and also a more enjoy­able work­ing environment.
  • How to get Every­one on Board — back to our idea of involv­ing every­one from the get-go. Often, new projects are “dropped from on high,” and the peo­ple doing the imple­ment­ing are not con­sulted. We explore why this cre­ates a no-win sit­u­a­tion, and look at the obvi­ous alternative.
  • Why it’s essen­tial to Tell Them What You Can’t Do — because the chan­nels of com­mu­ni­ca­tion are open, there are fewer sur­prises over what “doesn’t” appear in the project.

We then give you an overview of how to move from the Plan­ning Phase to the Devel­op­ment Phase
~ how to set up a test envi­ron­ment
~ strate­gies for obtain­ing and address­ing feedback

And we con­clude by explor­ing a tidy and ele­gant Launch and Test Phase

This process is sim­ple, direct, fun, and ele­gant. Using these plan­ning tools cuts devel­op­ment time, while increas­ing engage­ment and moti­va­tion.
You’ll find your­self devis­ing project chunks that work across your com­pany, and as the process con­tin­ues and builds, there is increas­ing sav­ings of both time and money.
This process works because it’s col­lab­o­ra­tive with­out being clunky, dynamic with­out jar­gon, and both sim­ple to under­stand and easy to implement.

From Con­fu­sion to Clar­ity –
How to Speak Your Truth for Max­i­mum Effectiveness

You have a mes­sage to con­vey, and the one and only mea­sure of your effec­tive­ness is whether oth­ers truly hear what you are saying.

In order to do this well, you have to mas­ter your­self.


Using live demon­stra­tions and mod­el­ing, Wayne pro­vides you with the tools you need:

  • you’ll learn to use a pow­er­ful “cen­ter­ing” method — which is guar­an­teed to cut through conflict.
  • you’ll dis­cover how to quiet the mind’s noise, end your self-criticism, and find within your­self a place of quiet and focused attention.
  • you’ll explore ways to eas­ily access this cen­ter of calm and quiet, and to com­mu­ni­cate clearly and directly from there.
Using visu­al­iza­tion tech­niques, med­i­ta­tion, and “quan­tum focus­ing,” you’ll dis­cover a calm oasis in the cen­tre of 21st cen­tury tur­moil. You’ll find the tools nec­es­sary to re-charge your life and re-vitalize your mes­sage.
In short, you will learn to focus your atten­tion inward, and from there, to com­mu­ni­cate in a direct, car­ing, clear, and effec­tive way.

The Calm Cen­ter in the Storm –
Achiev­ing Excel­lence in Your Life

Living up to your full poten­tial requires intense focus and dis­ci­pline. You have looked around you, and you see an undis­ci­plined and ego­cen­tric world. You are ready to stand forth — to be a leader — to excel.

You won­der — HOW?

You’ll dis­cover the rea­sons for dis­ci­plined focus — both the “why” and the “how.”

Excelling is not magic. It is not genetic. It is an atti­tude, and as such you can learn to excel.
I’ll show you how to be the best you can be — and from there, to cre­ate excel­lence in all that you do.
Learn ele­gant and pow­er­ful meth­ods for unlearn­ing the inef­fec­tive habits of a life­time. You will per­ma­nently replace them with the power to change yourself.

If you do not know where you are going, any path will do –
Power Your Life Through Creativity

As I’m rather fond of saying:

All that you are is a prod­uct of what you have thought.”

In this pro­gram, I pro­vide you with many proven ways of chang­ing the way you view your­self and the world.
I help you to estab­lish new, pow­er­ful, and real­is­tic direc­tions. You learn to turn your dreams into reality.

You’ll learn tech­niques to break the fet­ters that block cre­ativ­ity. You’ll dis­cover a step-by-step method to over­come pro­cras­ti­na­tion — and you go home with your cus­tomized plan in your hands.
I’ll show you how to iden­tify your life-goal – and you learn how to accom­plish it.
Using cut­ting edge visu­al­iza­tion tech­niques, you’ll dis­cover how to change your inter­nal pic­tures, set a new agenda and power your life in a new and excit­ing direction.
