Strategic Conversations


Wayne D. Messick,author,publisher,consultant,and professional speaker "In the fast-paced hyper-competitive environment of the 21st. Century, the #1 problem we all face, every day - is making decisions with certainty.

And everyone knows that even our most thoughtful decision is nothing more than trying to predict the future - armed only with the insight and experience we have at that very minute.

When we make decisions, with all their possible ramifications, alone - without the benefit of a supportive board of our peers and their experience, we risk sub-optimizing our performance, maybe even failure itself.

Unfortunately, even though we live in a so-called 'information age', we still make the most important decisions of our lives, in a vacuum - without insights of others. Often it's because we don't know who we can trust or who to turn to.

    Most of us feel isolated with no one around we can trust
    Everyone seems to have their own agenda - their own ax to grind.
    We are frustrated by being out of control, with no end in sight.
    And more and more of what we know for sure - turns out to be wrong.

By contrast, leaders creating the most powerful results make clear and sound decisions after collaborating with a per sonally chosen group of trusted colleagues.

21st Century leaders surround themselves with

  • a sounding board of advocates - for their input.
  • the relevant experiences of their contemporaries.
  • support from colleagues whose opinions and feedback they trust.

They're having "Strategic Conversations"!

Strategic Conversations, provide a proven process and framework for effectively dealing every business communication situation. They take place at the coffee shop, in the Board Room, over the phone and on the shop floor - anywhere two or more people meet.

Strategic Conversations help you create a virtual "think-tank" of trusted and valued peers who provide you with the opportunity to exchange and share ideas and experiences immediately. Once you have internalized the process you can turn every interaction from chit-chat into a strategic conversation.

Strategic Conversations, requiring no new skills, can be used to manage every personal and business interaction you will ever have! Period. While we are presenting them in a business context, I personally use the process to achieve maximum effectiveness - making every conversation strategic.

    Think about the last time you faced a new problem or were about to make a decision for the first time. Who did you turn to and confide in? Who did you trust in confidence for unbiased feedback, support and perspective?

Wouldn't it be great if there were people available to you right now, this very minute? And if you knew how to create and maintain strategic conversations with them.

Once you understand and integrate the Five Keys to Strategic Conversations, comprised of simple straightforward concepts for having powerful conversations, you'll know how you can focus conversations so all your future interactions will take place in a new way.

You'll learn how to flesh out ideas and build consensus. We'll show you how to effectively communicate from problem to solution to results - getting valuable feedback from your peers so the right decisions can be executed quickly.

The Five Keys to Strategic Conversations, a free research document created from over two decades of personal research and experimentation, outlines the universal principles we can all use for more effective decision making - in our business and personal lives.
