How about challenging the status quo of our workplace relationships? And how about not just the workplace status quo, but rather, all our relationships? In the episode, Sylvia Lafair explores the hidden emotional mechanisms in the workplace, and the discovery of why people respond the way they do. There is a pattern, or rather, a series of patterns, that underlie behavior. It has been the missing link in understanding the core of office politics, absenteeism, lawsuits, and poor productivity. The idea is to gain understanding of our workplace relationships through some key observations and practices. The goal is to achieve levels of success and satisfaction we never dreamed possible. This statement has been paraphrased based on the information found on CEoptions.com. My conversation today is with Sylvia Lafair about Creative Energy, Behavior Patterns and Transformation. Sylvia is an Author, Executive Coach and a Speaker. She is the president of Creative Energy Options, a global consulting firm. It has been named the Top 30 Global Leadership Gurus in 2016, 2017, 2018 & 2019. Sylvia's Total Leadership Connections Program is in the top 10 on HR.com for the past 7 years.

Welcome to the Courageous Entrepreneur Show. This is the show that shares information and inspiration to help you break free from self-doubt, limiting beliefs, and disempowering patterns and break through to create the thriving, successful business you dream of and deserve. You'll hear interviews with entrepreneurs who've overcome amazing challenges to create success on their terms and interviews with experts who share insight and practical information that -- when you take action on it -- can help you move forward with courage, confidence, and clarity. The show is available in both video and audio format on a variety of platforms including Apple Podcasts formerly iTunes, on You Tube, and on my website Winnie Anderson.com. I had reached a horrible point in my business life where I couldn't talk about my services. I was practically afraid to leave the house. One night while alone in my office staring at my whiteboard where I had written down what I wanted and what I couldn't do when suddenly I realized I was trapped in a pattern of acting and reacting…using strategies that had helped me survive a toxic environment while growing up and helped me be a successful corporate employee but now those strategies were actively holding me back. Two days later I went to an event and when I was checking in I discovered the speaker that night had a book that says we can all get stuck in patterns we developed in childhood as a survival strategy in our original organizations – our families. You don't have to have grown up in an abusive environment like I did to develop patterns that don't work for you as an adult. So when I was planning out this show I knew I wanted to address this issue and I hoped this author would be a guest on the show. In today's episode you're going to meet Dr. Sylvia LaFair. Inc magazine rated her as one of the top 30 leadership experts in the world. Her Total Leaderhips Connections program is one of the top ten best in the country as rated by HR dot com. She's a columnist for Inc dot com and The National Business Journals. She's CEO of Creative Energy Options and the world's leading authority in pattern aware leadership development. You're going to hear Sylvia explain: What patterns are and what being pattern aware means How ingrained patterns we developed in our family of origin get anchored into us and get repeated in our work organizations. These can lead to disempowering actions and self-sabotage. The role stress plays in developing patterns How to begin to change your ineffective patterns to stronger, empowering ones that will help you create the success you dream of and deserve. Stick around all the way to the end when I'll share your reflection exercise and action step for this episode. If you like what you heard I hope you'll leave a great rating, review, or comment on the platform you're enjoying this on. If you felt the information was helpful please share it with your colleagues, clients, and connections across your social media platforms.

LearnChair Radio host Bob Dragone interviews one of the world’s top leadership development experts, Sylvia Lafair, in this podcast. Sylvia explains how a childhood tragedy led her to become a psychologist and how her work with family structures evolved into her leadership development methods. Sylvia realized that bosses are like parents, co-workers like siblings, and wages like allowances. Her program is called Total Leadership Connections. Her insight was to recognize that people develop patterns that may cause them problems in a work environment. Her program is a deep dive into patterns as leaders. Her methodology includes what she terms OUT - observing patterns, understanding where they come from and transforming them into new patterns for leadership success. She also uses what she calls a SANKOSA map, a term that means clearing the past to free the future. HR.COM has judged Sylvia’s program to be one of the best for seven years running. Sylvia is the author of Don’t Bring It To Work, a book available on amazon.com that summarizes her approach and methods. Sylvia is also the author of GUTSY - How Women Leaders Make Change, where she urges women to stand up for themselves. Integrity is the one characteristic Sylvia believes every leaders should have because it integrates all aspects of a situation. You will enjoy listening to one of the world’s best leadership experts tell her story.

Her firm began as a personal growth center in 1986 and through a combination of events became a well-respected leadership and team building organization. As Sylvia tells it, “We were doing a program for parents whose teenagers were driving them bonkers. At the end of the night a man asked me to work with his senior leadership team that was fighting like a bunch of kids. Curious, I went to see what could happen using my skills and the rest, as they say is history”.

8/26/2013 What can you do as a parent to make yourself a great employee? Really? How do you come to the workplace? Don't bring IT to work. Sylvia Lafair is author of award winning book ''Don't Bring It to Work'' 20 Best Books for Emerging Leaders 2012 and it was voted as one of the top 20 books for emerging leaders and awarded the GUTSY first place in ''How to'' Books. Sylvia talks about the 13 most common patterns we bring to the workplace. Listen and learn.
Tough Talk with Tony Gambone's Most Listened Interview in 2012 with Sylvia Lafair!! Sylvia Lafair, Ph.D. is President of Creative Energy Options, Inc. (CEO), a global consulting company that targets and transforms workplace patterns for success. Dr. Lafair's programs and executive coaching impact individuals and teams to decrease conflict and increase productivity. Her award winning book, “Don't Bring It to Work” 2009 (Jossey-Bass), is listed as one of the top 20 books for emerging leaders. Lafair's research shows that, much as we like to believe that our behavior is entirely rational and governed by our conscious mind, our thoughts and actions are often driven by the roles we learned in our families as children. And under pressure, we tend to revert to old patterns, often creating workplace drama that diverts attention from the business and undermines productivity. As a keynote speaker, workshop leader and webinar presenter, Sylvia engages audiences with her natural storytelling ability. She weaves her knowledge about personal relationships and business culture into easily understood messages, using both humor and suspense that leave audiences with information to take back to the office and immediately put into practice. Dr. Lafair has been quoted in Time.com, Fortune, Forbes, The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal and has been a guest on various television and radio programs. Her new book, “GUTSY: How Women Leaders Make Change,” was released in June 2012. She is presently working on a book about diversity in the workplace titled “Different: How Dynamic Leaders Drive Diversity at Work”. As a noted authority on leadership, an award winning author, and executive coach, her message is unique and timely; her insights universal and relevant.

Sylvia Lafair, Ph.D. is President of Creative Energy Options, Inc. (CEO), a global consulting company that targets and transforms workplace patterns for success.

Her award winning book, “Don't Bring It to Work” 2009 (Jossey-Bass), is listed as one of the top 20 books for emerging leaders. Lafair's research shows that, much as we like to believe that our behavior is entirely rational and governed by our conscious mind, our thoughts and actions are often driven by the roles we learned in our families as children. And under pressure, we tend to revert to old patterns, often creating workplace drama that diverts attention from the business and undermines productivity. As a keynote speaker, workshop leader and webinar presenter, Sylvia engages audiences with her natural storytelling ability. She weaves her knowledge about personal relationships and business culture into easily understood messages, using both humor and suspense that leave audiences with information to take back to the office and immediately put into practice
