Andy’s most critical service program ever for Colleges and Universities can be presented as a 1-hour keynote, 4-hour training, or ongoing process improvement.  Andy illustrates that “Crises Lead to Forced Innovation“.  Therefore, all departments should creatively embrace continual process improvement to create solutions to provide even better services for our students–both “in person” and “online”.

Powerful service principles are based on Andy’s award-winning book, as he proves that we must “create a transformation from doing a job, to creating a bond with students–one interaction at a time.”  Andy also shares examples from other colleges on how to enhance student experience, avoid dissatisfaction, and improve reputation–including on social media.  Enjoy this timely, interactive, and impactful program which provides critical solutions to help provide all students a “world-class” service experience on your campus.

Andy explores the use of humor, pop culture references, incorporating technology which speaks their language, and inspiring students with success stories which bring “cool careers” to LIFE in every degree program.  He also illustrates the impact of providing “world-class” service principles, which can create a safe & positive learning environment for students—while creating a lifelong bond with the college.  

Lastly, Andy shares his inspirational story of how the care and belief of one faculty member and one staff member changed his life forever.  Simply put, Andy’s positive and solutions-based program helps “re-charge the batteries” for all faculty and staff, while inspiring a higher level of student engagement for your campus this academic year.

Re-Imagining Your Positive Workforce Culture for the NEW Work Environment

Never before have staff, faculty, and administrators been asked to wear so many hats, and do more with less.  Colleges have also had to endure unprecedented change and great challenges over the past few years.  Therefore, the time to create a positive work environment and make the workplace FUN again has never been more important.  People are tired of being stressed. People want to be happy, LAUGH, and enjoy their jobs again.  

Employees also want to work within a positive workplace culture, which includes everything from fun, to creative perks & benefits, to employee appreciation.  This, in turn, creates employee loyalty–which helps overcome the damaging staffing and succession planning crisis of this era.  

The incredible impacts of a positive work environment include improved recruiting, less stress, higher morale, lower turnover, greater teamwork, creativity, and even increased service levels–accomplished with LITTLE or NO costs!  Join international Author/Speaker Andy Masters in this timely and entertaining program which illustrates inexpensive ways to create a positive working environment, while sharing success stories of how other campuses have RE-ENERGIZED their culture in this “New Normal” education environment.

Award-winning author and Leadership expert Andy Masters creatively uses the magical imagery of Hollywood to help BUSY education leaders develop and empower their organizations in a POSITIVE work culture—while reducing turnover and defeating the staffing crisis.  Be entertained, educated, and inspired through actual license-protected scenes from movies such as The Devil Wears Prada, Apollo 13, The Iron Lady—and even Office Space and X-Men.  This unique program also cites the latest research from Harvard Business Review, Deloitte, and Glassdoor to provoke REAL organizational change from every attendee. Powerful leadership principles are based on Andy’s latest book “Things LEADERS Say: A Daily Guide to Help Every Leader Empower & Inspire.” Andy’s program provides attendees with not only an interactive multi-media experience, but also with immediate “take-home” action items to embrace today’s challenging education environment.

Embracing Your Work-Life “Mix” With HIGHER Quality and LESS Stress

Staff, faculty, and administrators have endured tremendous change and great challenges over these past few years. Never before have employees been asked to wear so many hats, and “do more with less”–while balancing both work and life.

Certainly, the job of an educator is to educate–not to entertain. However, we can’t educate, nor impact the lives of students, if we can’t keep attention and engage students first. Join author, speaker, and humorist Andy Masters as he shares easily applicable methods to sprinkle wit with our wisdom–even if you don’t believe you’re that funny!

Importantly, Andy shares specific research from several University studies which PROVES incorporating humor in the classroom improves cognitive retention, interest in the subject, faculty ratings, and even class attendance. So, have FUN, be creative, and impact the lives of students–while recharging your own batteries before class each day!
