Larry’s program is built on the following frame work.

  • Mindfulness training teaches you how to be fully present, in the moment with a purpose. It is how you keep mind/voice/body and all your senses in sync.
  • Increase your power of observation so you look and really see what is in your entire sphere of vision. An audiences’ body language reveals as much as their words.
  • To listen, to really hear you need to know how to engage your whole body in the process. Listening is a mutual process.
  • Learn the collaborative and connective building powers of improvisation’s “Yes and…” Improvisation techniques are critical for you to be successfully agile and facile when faced with unexpected situations.
  • Storytelling is the super highway to the brain and the tool necessary to make the emotional connection you require to build trust and respect with others.

The ability to transform opportunity into reality takes an advanced skill set in today’s highly digitized, commoditized electronic  global marketplace.  “I don’t know how to do a handshake over the telephone.” Warren Buffet

Larry understands that each person, each organization, is unique and he creates individualized programs to suit those unique circumstances.
