Recent Topics Covered
Cali & Jody are well-versed in, though not limited to, speaking about the following topics.
Work/Life Balance
Under the current system, finding balance is impossible. The answer is not flextime; flextime is a joke. The answer is not getting better organized, setting your alarm fifteen minutes early to beat the morning rush, or spending a Saturday making all your lunches for the month. Cali and Jody offer not a new way of working, but a new way of living.
Employee Retention
Employees bounce from company to company, looking for more pay, better benefits, more amenities, signing bonuses and on and on and over and over – driving costs up and hurting everyone’s bottom line. What if your company was the ‘greener grass’ on the other side? What if you could create a work environment that became a magnet not only for Gen Y, but for all generations – and retained only the talent you want to keep?
Workforce Issues
It’s time to stop band-aiding the issues and look for REAL change. Cali and Jody will show you how changing the foundation of how the workplace operates will drive out the redundant, out-of-date, antiquated practices that have little chance of ever curing the workforce issues we’re all faced with.
Human Resources
How did Human Resources become the ‘rule enforcers’? Whatever happened to the HUMAN in Human Resources? The world is changing and the workforce has different needs than it did 6 decades ago when the 40-hour workweek was established. Just look at your rules and policies. Is anyone really following them? Are they laughable in today’s global environment? Do they even make sense?
Innovation
Everywhere you look, there’s another article about generations colliding, competing in global business markets, creating internal resiliency, adaptability and innovation engines, and surviving change. And the information is numbing. Where do you start? It’s time to move past the clutter and cut to the chase.
Accolades
“ROWE is a concept that may be slightly ahead of its time, but [they are] right in time to deliver the thought leadership that can change organizations.”
– Joni Thomas Doolin, CEO and Founder People Report
“5 years ago, Cali and Jody came up with the idea of ROWE, brought it to life, introduced it, refined it and made it what it is today. As they speak, the message is so clear and motivating, all I could wonder is “why hasn’t anyone done this before?”
– Jan Finken, CEO/President IQ Marketing
“I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a professional presentation on how the workplace can be improved.”
– Anneli Schalock, Co-Chair, The Tuck School of Business Work-Life Symposium
“Cali Ressler and Jody Thompson gave a presentation called ‘How a Results-Only Work Environment Transformed Best Buy’s Workplace Culture’ - there was probably more buzz created by this than any of the other 15 or so sessions at this conference. It was, without a doubt, a worthwhile addition to the conference agenda.”
– Bill Duggan, EVP, Committees Association of National Advertisers
