Writing Effectively

Dr. Kline’s one and two-day training sessions on “How to Write Right” are his most popular. Most organizations struggle with writing good letters, memos, and papers. Dr. Kline’s degrees in Writing and Communication, his many years as a writer for others, and finally twenty years as a senior executive give him the right expertise to teach others how to write effectively. See his July 2005 column on how to write in active voice.

“Our senior executives and managers rated the usefulness of the writing training at 4.75 on a 5-point scale; and they rated the quality of you as the trainer at 4.95. Great work!”
--Defense Finance and Accounting Services (DFAS)

Speaking Effectively

Dr Kline has taught thousands how to speak in front of audiences. For twenty-five years he was the United States Air Force's expert on public speaking. Now he is available to provide the same training for you. He will tailor the instruction to fit your needs from one day to several weeks. Whether you are speaking in the corporate boardroom or to the local civic club, Dr Kline will teach you how to overcome nervousness, tell stories with flair, and make winning presentations every time. Many of his columns focus on speaking effectively.
"Not a professor sitting in an ivory tower. He's been there, done that. When he speaks, they listen."
--Director of Training, The Southern Company

Listening Effectively

How well do you listen? Do you know the ten bad habits of listening? Perhaps you find yourself listening well on the job, but not so well at home. Or perhaps you misread the nonverbal cues people give-- cues that can help you improve your listening dramatically. Dr Kline can help you be a better listener in just a few hours. Check out his columns on listening: August 2000, November 2000, July 2001 and July 2002.
"...an excellent speaker, and more importantly an excellent listener that took an interest in each person he met that day. It was obvious to me that Dr. Kline practiced what he preached."
--Lennox Manufacturing Managers

Building Teams and Leading Effectively*

Dr. Kline is a professor of leadership, but don't let that fool you. When he talks leadership and teambuilding, he talks from experience. He has successfully led organizations with several people and organizations with several thousand.

Whether he is conducting a seminar for one hour or for one day, John Kline knows his audience. He talks directly to the needs of the listeners and illustrates what he is teaching with case studies, examples, interactive exercises, facts, and a liberal amount of humor.

"Your leadership training was right on target."
--Land O'Lakes Managers
