Who We Are:
Government Is Our Business!
An organization dedicated to
affordable Human Resources Consulting, Labor Relations excellence and the
delivery of High Energy Management Training in the public sector. We
believe in building the competencies necessary for your organization to be
a "Service Survivor" as you meet the challenges of this new millennium.
Steve Rosenthal, our President and
founder, has been a teacher, contract negotiator, and Human Resources Director. He
has worked for both public and private organizations. A popular conference speaker,
Steve has mixed his twenty years of management experience into a delivery that is fast
paced and entertaining. He has served as the President of both the Florida Public
Employer Labor Relations Association (FPELRA)
and the Florida Public Personnel Association (FPPA). A few years ago at their Annual Conference, the National
Employer Labor Relations Association honored him with their Award of Excellence.
This award is presented to the individual who has made significant contributions to the
field of collective bargaining. Check out our Team of Associates.
Training:
We build skills through enjoyable presentations that
entertain and educate. No organization can afford to ignore the development
of its most important resource. Our seminars are designed by experts in
their field and are delivered by presenters who have used these techniques in the
workplace. We believe that training should be designed and presented by
people who work for a living to people who work for a living. All
our seminars are custom designed to your specific human resource needs. Check out
our seminar descriptions and titles.
New
Training Materials Website:
We are announcing the creation of a website called
www.getsimplysmart.com . This new venture puts training at your
fingertips and it is cheap! You will be able to download hundreds of
materials including dozens of newsletters, training briefs and PowerPoint
presentations via an inexpensive yearly subscription for an introductory
price of $149 for all the newsletters for employees and supervisors and
$249 for the newsletters and all other training materials on the site.
Here is the beauty of it –the work is done for you and there are materials
for both public sector organizations and corporations. You can use
them exactly as they are or customize them to your needs using Microsoft
Word or PowerPoint. Whether you are simply adding your organization’s name
or changing articles all are simple to do with software you already have
at the office.
Check out the complete products list on the home
page to see how much is on the site! We have included a complete
listing. New items (within the last two months) will appear in red always
letting you know what has been recently added. A couple of years ago
I got this idea of how great would it be to have newsletters and training
materials readily available to organizations where the material was
created for them but if they didn’t like an article they could still
customize the materials to the way they wanted them. If you are
interested in training via newsletters for supervisors and employees and
having training materials available my new website is for you. The site is
dedicated to the K.I.S.S. principle. People always tell you to keep it
simple but we really show you how.
Teambuilding:
Working as a team is
essential for organizational success. We specialize in team experiences at
the upper management and department level. Whether it is "tweaking"
a well run department or building a team where there is none we have the
experiences for your group's success. As with our training since each
organization's issues are different each teambuilding experience is custom
designed to meet specific needs.
Strategic Planning & Productivity Improvement Processes:
Improving every organization
requires a plan. We can offer a variety of strategic planning and
productivity improvement processes for individual departments or the
organization as a whole. If it is "raising the bar" in a fiscal year
or a longer range plan for attaining an organization's vision we can run a
process for you that will meet your needs. Often individual departments
shy away from such processes as being too difficult or time consuming for
their employees. Let the Training Tree show you how easy it is to
raise the level of performance in your department without overburdening
the staff.
Labor
Relations:
Our expertise in labor
relations centers around the public sector. We offer assistance in
creating positive labor management relationships through join workshops
and training. We train management bargaining teams and represent
management at the bargaining table.
