Michael’s Recent Interview on Beyond Lip Service
Recently, I was interviewed on Sharon Sayler’s Internet radio show:Beyond Lip Service. We had a great chat about group dynamics, nonverbal communication and the upcoming Group Wizardry.
Learn more about Group Wizardry this June 21-25, 2010
Thanks Kristy
"Working with Michael was an absolute pleasure. He is easy to deal with and goes above and beyond to deliver on all he promises and so much more. He exceeded our expectations on so many levels.
"Michael’s tagline; the average presenter informs, the good presenter persuades and the great presenter inspires…Is what he truly lives by. He took some average presenters and made them great and some good and great presenters and made them outstanding.
"I have never been in a program where so many people had such profound shifts and such enormous learning.
"Michael’s greatest ability is to change peoples’ behaviors in hours. He is a true master at non-verbal communication and group dynamics. He has changed the way I think and look at communication.
"He is a world-class presenter, facilitator and coach with an endless well of knowledge and wisdom to impart…a true master of his craft."

ENVoY Classroom Management by Krista Grinder – Vancouver, WA
Course Objectives:
The non-verbal communication skills offered in this training will positively influence the single most powerful point in education—the teacher-student relationship.
Teachers who systematically utilize the full range of non-verbal management skills are able to reinforce consistent and fair parameters while preserving their relationships with each student, regardless of unique learning styles or cultural backgrounds.
Expected outcomes include fewer disciplinary incidents, improved student attendance, higher student grades, higher staff morale, and a lower level of staff burn-out.
ENVoY is a vehicle to shift educators from seeing themselves as Bastions of Power to Instruments of Influence.
Topics of Study are: The four times teachers most often use management techniques
- Why non-verbal messages are more effective in classroom management than verbal messages
- Recognizing and responding to the various learning styles of students
- Disciplining for student needs rather than for teacher needs
- Establishing and preserving relationships of influence
Why ENVoY?
Professional strength
This program, when used by cadres of instructors within a school, brings out the professional strengths of all the members involved.
Wealth in our classrooms!
We need to elevate ourselves from within. . . we need systems which enable us to profit from the wealth of abilities that lie in insular classrooms. Sharing our collective wisdom It is only through sharing and supporting processes that the collective wisdom of the staff emerges.
Who is the the program for?
Teachers at all levels. The classroom can be viewed with educational binoculars. The primary tube focuses on curriculum. ENVoY is the management tube which supports the learning.
The ENVoY series is based on Michael Grinder’s best-selling books for educators, widely used in the U.S., Europe, Australia, Asia and Latin America. The seminars and book ENVoY, are powerful whether you are teaching in K-12 or adult education.
The principles of non-verbal management can also help parents and anyone who works with children maintain positive relationships with young people while respectfully adhering to high standards for behavior.
One teacher who has been through the training recently summarized this point:
"Before the students care what you know, they need to know that you care."
