Faller states, “All behaviors are motivated by the need to survive, be loved and accepted, fulfilled and to find fun and freedom in life. We constantly are choosing behaviors to get us what we want. When others won’t give us what we want... conflict is born. We struggle with our internal thoughts and say, ‘What am I to do now to get what I want?’ Those who understand that all behaviors can change seem to have a gift for developing positive relationships. In building a culture of understanding, acceptance and change, we begin by understanding that you and I will always require something from each other to get us what we want. We will use whatever strategy our experiences tell us is our best chance of getting it. Our success in life— our happiness— is tied to the relationships we build and hold with others.”

1 “What did you do THAT for?”
Recognize the difference between our human NEEDS and our human BEHAVIORS. You can’t be expected to understand every human behavior...but you CAN easily understand these five basic Needs. Be willing to look behind the negative or inappropriate behaviors of others, to help OTHERS meet THEIR Needs, and THEY will go out of their way to meet YOUR Needs…Guaranteed!
2 “So THAT’S why you’re like that!”
This includes true stories of interpersonal conflict and the resolution of conflict, offering incites into Understanding, Accepting, and Resolving CONFLICT.
3 “Excuse me? Did you just say what I thought I saw?”
Personal and professional relationships are dependent upon understanding OTHERS and how others are to understand us. A thousand times a day we speak through our Words, Inflection, and Body Language (non-verbals). Hear what others are really saying to you…even when they’re saying nothing at all.
4 “Listen...and become the talk of the town.”
True communications and understanding is never in the intent of the speaker; it is always in the message received by the listener. We humans NEED to relate to each other. Relationships will be built and conflicts resolved when you practice these four “A’s” of Active Listening. You will be amazed how OTHERS will begin treating YOU differently, more positively, and THEY won’t even know why they’re doing it… Guaranteed!
5 Can't we all just get along?
Our human BEHAVIORS are what keep us apart; our human NEEDS are what we have in common. But it is our PERSONALITIES that give us balance. In this active, fun and highly charged hands-on seminar, participants will learn their own personality traits, and the traits of those around them. Participants will immediately discover why some people excel in certain tasks, yet flounder in others.
Think about it...
If you work with people, what other training could be more valuable than discovering why ALL people behave the way they do? What could be more “career specific” than being able to Understand, Accept, and Resolve Conflicts with your clients (students), employees (faculty and staff),customers (parents),administrators/managers (principal), co-workers, family and others.
...then do something about it!
“Every HRL Seminar/ presentation will be viewed by participants as some of the best staff development or training they have ever received ...personally or professionally, I guarantee it!”
