Barnum and Associates
Barnum and associates conducts the Experience
Compression Laboratory nine times a years. This program has
been running continuously since 1957. They do not advertise,
but it is always full because former participants recommend
it to their colleagues and subordinates.
Dr. Shirts recommends the program very highly.
Participants work 12 hours a day for 6 days. They do not reveal
their names, vocations, or titles until the last day. They receive
feedback on their style from the beginning to the end. In Dr.
Shirts words, "It is the most effective training program I have
ever attended. The people who attended when I went through
it will never be the same. It is very powerful. It has the power
of the encounter group without the negative effects that such
groups often created. The hours are long and you must be willing
to examine your work style and how it affects those around you.
It is the perfect program for the young executive who has the
technical skills to advance, but whose management style is holding
him/her back."
If you wish to contact Barnum you may do so
via e-mail at Barnum10@aol.com
or by calling Betty Forbis or Gregg Metzler at 908-271-0990.
Richard Lee
Richard Lee describes two very effective programs
below. Garry Shirts says,'The feedback process that Richard
has developed intensifies the power of the feedback but allows
the recipient to control the risk. It's very ingenious. I wish
I had thought of it."
Richard J. Lee Consulting provides executive
and organization development consulting specializing in aligning
and strengthening executive teams. "Richard Lee played a key
role in helping shape the culture of Silicon Graphics." Ed McCracken,
Chairman & CEO, Silicon Graphics.
The Collaboration Challenge drives and enables
organizations to strengthen collaboration across all boundaries
to leverage their capability and impact. "Richard Lee's Collaboration
Challenge is a powerful and engaging program which will truly
leverage our intellectual capability, the key priority in our
hyper-growth network consulting company." Steve Umphreys, Vice
President, International Network Services.
Leveraging Impact builds individual and team
capability through an innovative and constructive feedback process
for intact management teams. "Leveraging Impact is the single
most effective process for improving working relationships,
trust and open communication I've ever encountered. It resulted
in forging a far more effective management team, with the speed
and impact required for a Cisco environment." Tom Fallon, Vice
President, Cisco Systems.

Sidney Wool
Sidney Wool is one of the few people in the
training world who truly practices what he teaches. He is the
world's best listener. He is offering a series of training programs
in association with Simulation Training Systems (STS) that specialize
in interpersonal skills. These particular skills are extremely
helpful in getting the most from the awareness and processes
learned in STS simulations. His "Silver Lining of Conflict",
"Interactive Listening" and "Low-Risk Confrontation" offer "how
to" learning of skills that are so often advocated but seldom
learned in a way that prompts their use when needed most. His
programs provide some basics for making participative process
and group centered leadership more than idealistic concepts.
They are basis to maintaining satisfying productive and trusting
work relationships.
Previously, Sidney Woold was the Director and
contributing author of The Leader Effectiveness Training (L.E.T.)
Program for whch he developed and administred a multi-national,
quality controlled delivery system through which over 175,000
leaders attended L.E.T. programs. Clients where he personally
taught include Rockwell, Monsanto, Security Pacific National
Bank, American Association of Industrial Management, Ryder-P.I.E.,
California Department of Justice, U.S. Postal Service, American
Standard, Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, T.B.M. Consulting,
University of Missouri (St. Louis) and The Executive Committee
(T.E.C.)
