Joe Calamusa’s Four Forces for Influences has been one of the most impactful learning experiences that I’ve had for professional development. This engaging and insightful program has already benefitted my role here at UA, as well as industry associations I’m serving in as a leadership team member. The program focused on how to pour into others to receive your desired outcome, helping elevate instead of selling. Our session had several attendees both internal and external to the University, and the content was relevant and motivating for everyone across the board. This program will help cultivate leaders, no matter what the industry!
The Four Forces of Influence session with Joe was so helpful to me and my entire team! I initially thought it would be more for those of us in official leadership roles, but knowing how to communicate effectively and support people in varying relationships (direct report, leadership members, customers/clients/donors, etc.) was so helpful! It really could have been expanded to an all-day session, but he condensed such great info into the 2 hours, and it was a great learning exercise for our whole team!
I found the Business Communications and Storytelling session with Joe Calamusa beneficial and highly entertaining. As a 30-year communications professional, I appreciated Joe’s unique way of breathing new life into my thought process for storytelling. The day flew by, and I enjoyed learning about the different storytelling elements and how to structure a compelling story based on your intended audience’s communication style.
I truly enjoyed participating in the Culverhouse Executive Education session, The Science of Storytelling: Leveraging Storytelling to Drive Results. Joe Calamusa led an engaging, entertaining and extremely informative discussion proving that telling a compelling story is a science and not an art. Joe educated the participants on the four elements of storytelling and guided each of us through the process of identifying, structuring and delivering superior narratives. Utilizing these communication skills learned in this session, you will feel confident in your ability to drive results both internally and externally of your organizations.
Our recent training with Joe was an amazing experience. This professional development for division leadership ranged from first line supervisors to senior leadership. Joe was able to connect with each attendee in a meaningful way using his knowledge, experience and energy to illustrate some very important leadership concepts in the workplace. It was uplifting to see the constant engagement and attention. Every attendee I spoke with was very appreciative of the opportunity and information provided.
Facilities & grounds had two professional development training session on the topic of Four Forces of Influences. One group was management, while the other was front line supervisors. Joe did an outstanding job relating to the target audience in each group while still providing in depth understanding of the topic. The participants were engaged and participating for the duration of the training. I had numerous people come up to me in the weeks following the training telling me how much they enjoyed the training and how they are using the Four Forces in their communications going forward.
Joe Calamusa’s session on the Four Factors of Influence was of what felt like pure entertainment! The knowledge and energy during this presentation was outstanding. This session is useful in bettering yourself and your communication with others regardless of level. I highly recommend attending if possible. Thank you to Executive Education and Joe Calamusa for providing this training opportunity!
