Program Overview

We are pleased to be offering three of Denise's most-requested seminars - three days of training to re-tool and re-energize workforce development professionals.

Beyond Traditional Job Development

Job Developers are entrusted with the awesome responsibility of bridging the gap between unemployed job seekers and the work available in their communities - yet they are frequently provided with few tools and little guidance for achieving their goals. Recognizing that effective job development is perhaps more an art than a science, this dynamic seminar is a goldmine of proven tips, tools and strategies.

30 Ways to Shine as a New Employee (CANCELLED)

This seminar is rooted in practical concepts and techniques that can enhance the productivity, success and job satisfaction of new employees. Using it as the basis for mentoring or other supportive services, employers and/or placement agencies can monitor the progress of new employees and help them to successfully deal with the challenges of their new jobs and workplaces.

Rekindle the Flame (CANCELLED)

Drawn largely from her book, The Wholehearted Journey: Bringing Qualities of Soul to Everyday Life and Work, Denise Bissonnette offers a dynamic, inspiring and life-altering workshop experience!  Designed to re-ignite the power, passion and purpose which originally drew people to the helping professions, this one day-intensive seminar intertwines poetry, parables, and practical applications to put soul back into the everyday realities of life on the job.
