of all US employees are disengaged at work.

According to Gallup, nearly 70% of all US employees are disengaged at work, costing you time and productivity. Disengagement leads to higher absenteeism, greater turnover, lack of productivity, and less profitability. Consistent change, constant stress, and rampant negativity threaten the fiber of an organization. Fortunately, humans want to succeed. People want to do well. They simply need strategies to regain confidence and direction.

The key is happiness. Though common wisdom believes success leads to happiness, nearly 100 research studies show that the opposite is true: Happier people are more successful in every aspect of life: they make more money, get better customer evaluations, earn more promotions, are healthier and have better relationships.

Sample Presentations

Popular Topics

Positive Employees: Successful Organizations

Though common wisdom holds that success leads to happiness, research shows that the opposite is true. Happy, positive people enjoy more promotions, greater financial success, better physical health and healthier relationships. In this powerful talk, Carin shares how to leverage the science of human flourishing to increase positivity, harness optimism, be resilient, and persevere toward goals with strengths and purpose. Using stories from her years as a marketing executive and her experience as an empowerment coach, she provides tools for leaders, HR executives, and employees to maximize employees’ potential.

Lead: Empowering Women to Thrive

Professional women have more choice than ever before, yet they also have more pressure to be perfect in every area of life, and it kills confidence, creativity, and culture. Many professional women have been told to act like a man, or they have been perceived as too harsh, or considered weak. Women need a new model of leadership: One in which they thrive as themselves. In this powerful talk, Carin empowers women to claim their happiness first. She shows women how to identify and speak their strengths, confidently ask for what they want, and lead through inspirational influence. She shares personal stories and client struggles to empower women with practical and actionable tools to expand their success and enjoy their lives.

Think Proactively: Increase Success

The brain is a powerful tool that can lead to misery or happiness, failure or success. This workshop teaches employees how to maximize their brain for success. Carin uses personal stories and professional examples of triumph over challenge to inspire audiences to think differently. She teaches optimistic thinking tools, how to effectively work through adversity, and how to expand possibilities for oneself. This workshop leverages the best of science with practical take-home tools to immediately increase effectiveness.

Your "Why": Making Work Meaningful

Purpose motivates success. When you know your “why,” you are willing to work harder to achieve the ultimate goal. As a thought-leader on life purpose, Carin teaches people how to uncover their unique purpose and thrive. In this talk, she helps people clarify their purpose and identify how they can bring it to their current work. She inspires an audience with her own search for purpose and shares how clients are applying purpose to their work, in order to support audiences to identify their own purpose. Research shows that when people find their work meaningful, they have greater job satisfaction, they are more engaged, and their commitment to the organization increases.

Succeed With Your Strengths

We often focus on weaknesses, but research clearly shows that building upon strengths leads to happier, more engaged employees. This workshop will teach participants to recognize their personal strengths as well as the strengths of their colleagues, and to leverage them for individual and team success, as well as for increased productivity company-wide. Attendees will take a strength assessment prior to the workshop and learn how to use the results to be effective and happy at work. This is highly interactive with opportunities for attendees to engage as a whole group, practice concepts, and, in longer sessions, to work in dyads and small groups.

When I first heard Carin speak, I was so inspired and re-energized that I immediately asked her to come in and give her presentation to my team. Our company had been going through a rough period, and everyone was feeling a bit tired and uninspired. Following the meeting, several members of the team remarked how they not only loved what Carin had to say, but were excited to use her lessons. Carin brings an incredible amount of passion & positivity to everything she does, and her tools and tips are a ‘must have’ for anyone who wants to break out of negative thinking and realize the power that positivity can bring to your life.
