Speaker Luncheon “Negaholics: Why People Become Negative and…What You Can Do About It!”
With Cherie Carter-Schott, PhD,
Author, Coach, Consultant and Lecturer
Dr. Cherie Carter-Scott is the author of 16 books and a consultant to CEO’s of top companies as well as an expert in Coaching, Customer Service, Change Management, and today’s topic, “Negaholics: Why People Become Negative and…What You Can Do About It”.
Change is an invitation to Negativity, especially significant change. When approaching the ASEAN Economic Community of 2015, this is the type of significant change that can summon the naysayers to come forward. Understanding where Negativity comes from, knowing how to detect it and determining how to effectively change the behavior of an individual or an entire culture is critical to embracing major change. If people buy-in to the change. It will be effective, and if they don’t, it will fail. Leaders must know how to affect buy-in to change if they are to be successful. Learn why it is so difficult for people to make the shift from negativity to a positive, optimistic, hopeful mindset

In 2011 some of our members were affected by the flood – directly in the production or indirectly through suppliers. The effects of the flood are still noticeable and affect the investment climate. Therefore we want to establish an GTCC working group “Flood Management” in order to identify the demands of the German economy in Thailand regarding flood. The objective is to accompany the ongoing improvement process in the water and flood management of Thailand as GTCC.
The first GTCC working group “Flood Management” will be held on 10th May 2012, 9.30 h at the Chamber.
In case of interest, kindly register to supinda@gtcc.org within 8 May 2012 at the latest.
