Intentional Living...Meaningful Work…Significant Solutions. 

As a business owner, corporate executive, and community volunteer, Gaye knows the joy and challenges of living intentionally in a world that demands so much.  Her business experience includes leadership positions in Fortune 500 companies and non-profit organizations. She has worked with hundreds of individuals who want to live intentionally, with purpose. Her organizational development expertise and experience have helped business owners transform the way they do business with their employees.   

People want to know that their lives matter, and that their contributions in the workplace are valued and make a difference.  Business owners want to know how to bring out the best in their employees - employees who will work hard for each other and who are committed to the organization’s success.   Volunteers and association members want to know that their commitment to the cause that stirs their souls will help move that work forward.  Gaye helps individuals and business owners create significant solutions by making the connection between intentional living and meaningful work.   

Participants leave Gaye’s presentations and workshops as changed people.  They feel encouraged, inspired, and hopeful.  And just as important, they have discovered or re-discovered ideas and tools that will help them create lives that focus on the things that matter most.  They have re-defined success in their terms, without losing themselves in the process.  People leave smiling.  Laughing.  Engaged.  Renewed.   

Gaye is known for her ability to generate enthusiasm, create connections, and focus people on living and working with purpose.  She is a contributing author to the book, “Don’t Miss Your Boat: Living Your Life with Purpose in the Real World.”

Gaye's Most Requested Programs:

Don’t Miss Your Boat: Living Your Life with Purpose in the Real World
We’ve all said it: “If I can get through this week, then…” or “As soon as work slows down, then…”  Although our intentions are good, our time is spent living in the future rather than living in the present.  Using humor and stories from her own life and work experiences, Gaye will share the three actions you can take so you don’t miss your boat – so you don’t miss out on life! 

Where’s the Magic Wand When I Need It?
Face it.  We have had moments when we thought our job or life circumstance was intolerable.  And unfortunately, there’s no magician in sight who can make the day disappear! How do we get out of bed, throw away the Hagen-Das ice cream, exchange our sweatpants for the work uniform, and return to the land of the living? Whether your life is right on track or your supermarket can’t replenish the ice cream shelves fast enough, you’re going to appreciate Gaye’s strategies on dealing with real life – and real work – without any magic involved! 

Create an Experience: The New World of Work
Work has been redefined.  The boxes on the organizational charts are disappearing.  Individuals want to make a difference and find meaning in their work.  Organizations want to improve employee morale and increase productivity.  Forget about selling job candidates and employees on "opportunities for advancement" and rewarding loyalty – that won't work much longer.  Rather, immerse them in an experience that tracks on all cylinders: values, expectations, responsibilities, results, rewards.  Engage their minds and their souls.  The rules for attracting, hiring, and motivating employees have changed.  Are you ready? 

Life is Not a Dress Rehearsal: Live Each Day as Opening Night
Every morning the curtain goes up and we’re back on stage, front and center.  It’s easy to walk through the day as if we are preparing for the “real” production, treating the day as a rehearsal.  Reality is, we will never get another shot at today’s performance or audience.  It’s opening night -- and you’re the star of the show!  Re-discover the power of choice.  You can live each day with purpose and passion! 

The Path Workshop: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and for Life
What if you could truly know where you are going – spiritually, personally, and professionally?  What if you could determine the highest purpose for your life, and within a few hours, have a step-by-step action plan for pursuing it?  The Path™ Workshop is based on Laurie Beth Jones’ best-selling book, The Path: Creating Your Mission Statement for Work and for Life.  It will help you define your mission and create a brief, powerful statement of purpose that will keep you focused on the things that matter most.
