Interviews and Strategic Conversations With Thought Leaders!

In this 15 minute overview Henry Barbey, our founder and the co-creator of the Strategic Conversations process, describes the power of the principles that are guaranteed to dramatically enhance the effectiveness of your communications.

  • A 30 minute overview of the facilitated group process. Small group dynamics are one of the most powerful forces in the universe. Especially small groups where the members respect the opinions of one another and are each accountable to themselves and the group itself for the results.

  • Henry Barbey describes how to integrate the Five Keys to Strategic Conversations. Not only are Strategic Conversations the principles behind our Strategic Conversations groups, they are the basic tenets for effective communications.

  • Henry Barbey interviews communications through leader Douglas Cohen. Doug's insights into the power of communications, based on his exhaustive research and years of practical experience, offer everyone a glimpse into the basis for Henry's belief in the value of Strategic Conversations.

  • Henry Barbey discusses "Assessments", a key tool for achieving your personal potential. Unless we identify where we are NOW we won't know for sure when we are making progress toward where we want to be. Unless we identify our strengths we will not be able to leverage the things we enjoy and those that offer us the greatest results - so we can achieve our objectives in the most effective way. Assessments offer these insights and much more.

  • Henry Barbey interviews Ruth Stevens. Ruth was in our foundation group and discusses her experiences candidly. Her reflections, 3+ years afterwards, provide valuable insights for anyone considering their own Strategic Conversations group.

  • After interviewing Ruth Stevens Henry Barbey decided to interview Tonia Papke. Tonia was another member of the foundational group and Henry was interested in what she had taken away from the group process. And Tonia was not aware that Ruth had been interviewed as well. Her candid reflections, taken in the context of Ruth's comments, illustrate how two of the members of that group are still reaping the benefits - years afterwards. This conversation offers listeners with profitable insights if they are considering the ROI potential of their own Strategic Conversations group.
