Laying the Foundation for High Performing Teams
Expecting your leaders to deliver high-performance results when processes are undocumented, and goals remain undefined is expecting too much.
Change the conversation, change the culture
Learn the steps anyone can take to approach a conversation that has a greater likelihood to resolve differences that otherwise would interfere with work.
Company leaders identify recruiting and retaining qualified employees as their biggest challenge. When you lose your most talented employees it diminishes productivity, disrupts leadership, and reduces morale. This all amounts to an assault on the primary purpose of any business, to make a profit. Companies are looking for solutions but one person can’t tackle this problem alone; it must be a company-wide initiative.
The solution lies in understanding that every employee has a mindset about the company they work for which reflects the level of commitment they have for the organization.

You will learn solutions that are repeatable and sustainable, designed to improve your employee’s work experience so they continually say “I want to work here.”

“I am proud to give Colene my highest recommendation. She has shown that she is a world class leader who has learned much and now is focused on using her vast experience and knowledge for the development and growth of others. Whether speaking from the stage to the large crowd of in a more intimate one-on-one conversation, Colene was highly professional and refreshingly thoughtful in her delivery. She is deliberate. As a keynote speaker at our international conference, Colene was highly engaging, funny, and interesting as she taught information that is timely, practical and highly relevant.”
Colene is truly a professional speaker with polished content that is both insightful and thought-provoking. While focusing on leadership and driving employee engagement, she delivered a fantastic presentation for our group of senior leaders in a short turnaround with minimal time to prepare. I gladly recommend Colene and hope to be able to work with her again soon!
Colene Rogers recently presented a workshop for our Colorado Mortgage Lenders Association’s Leadership Forum on the topic of Retention: Key Mindsets that Retain Top Talent. The attendees gave her the highest ratings possible! She kept them engaged, offered real life examples, made them think, and provided helpful tools to use with their own teams. As the facilitator for this Forum, the added benefit is that Debbut had to pivot to virtual at the last minute. It takes a real pro to do that. I highly recommend her and will certainly consider her for future engagements!

Colene’s Bio
Colene is the author of Retention: Key Mindsets That Retain Top Talent. She shares how to create a culture that moves your employees to think of your organization as the top mindset – A Career Company – the company they never want to leave.
This same content informs her keynotes, workshops, leadership training, and HR consulting. Every day she is helping real companies find solutions to their staffing needs. This makes the content she shares from the stage and in her workshops current to what her audience is experiencing today.
As a former recruiter with 20+ years as a Human Resource Professional, Colene knows what it’s like to spend substantial time and resources to find, hire and train a skilled employee, only to watch that employee go work for someone else. She hated that feeling so much she has now made it her business to help companies make that loss a rarity.
