Burke Allen's Big Time Talker Podcast — by SpeakerMatch

"Is it possible to view our work like going to a playground everyday?" Ask seasoned executive coach Dan Schultheis. Wednesday, May 4th at 12:30pm ET, Burke welcomes to the WAMS microphones experienced organizational consultant Schultheis. Discussing the messages in his upcoming book, “The Corporate Playground”, we will explore how people can understand that most of the conflicts, frustrations and career disappointments they encounter relate back to what they’ve experienced as children going to our neighborhood playground. The lessons we learned there, and may have forgotten, can serve us again in finding how to “play” at our job better with others. In 1992, Schultheis founded, Personal Communications Consultants, a company that develops, promotes, and facilitates seminars, workshops, and professional development training for organizations, small groups, and individuals. Sales Mechanics is the sales consulting arm of that company. Schultheis holds a BA degree in Physics from Villa Madonna College. He was on the Board of Trustees of Virginia Union University, as well as a member of the James Madison University Business School Executive Advisory Council. He is a member of the National Speakers Association.
