TAILORED TO ADDRESS THE RELEVANT ISSUES
Below are outlines of some of Toni’s most frequently booked personal development workshops/sessions which can be tailored to address relevant issues and fit in with time slots you have available from keynote to whole day.
Additionally, Toni has created a range of post workshop programs that offer very effective ways to continue the impact and teaching of the workshops over a longer period.
Creating Better Relationships Workshop
The Secret to Happiness Workshop
The Yellow Car Stress Less Workshop
Leading for Positive Culture
CREATING BETTER RELATIONSHIPS with EVERYONE YOU KNOW
This unique and unexpected workshop takes attendees on a journey that starts with Harvard’s research into what makes life worth living (good relationships) and moves on to how the brain sees, how memory works and then through to the fascinating areas of why we think we’re right and how, not only don’t we really understand why others do things, we barely understand our own motives.
The workshop then covers a range of ways to build trust and bonding. This workshop is pertinent to all relationships.
Shorter versions make for a very interactive and fun keynote.
Outcomes include:
- Higher levels of courtesy
- Increased trust, kindness and job satisfaction
- Less bullying, blaming and excuses
- Calmer negotiations
- Reduced conflict, gossiping and complaint
- Better relationships at home and at work.
Values, culture & behaviour:
This workshops will serve to build many positive behaviours as it provides relationships strengthening tools people enjoy practicing. These practices build loyalty, trust and higher degrees of integrity/honesty.
The workshop creates room for a more respectful workplace culture as attendees gain new insight into the behaviour and motives of others. Everyone is inspired to be a better version of themselves and friction between colleagues is naturally reduced.
Bonus benefits:
It is common for attendees to experience enhanced relationships in every area of life resulting in happier and less stressed staff.
“We’re forever expecting people to think like us, and when they disagree with us we automatically assume that they must be wrong. The expectation of eventual agreement to our ‘right’ side causes endless conflict.”
Toni Powell

Bonus Benefits:
Everyone teaches these skills to their kids!
“So much of what we invest emotional energy into is a waste of that energy. Once we become aware of ‘wasting’ our energy on fruitless exercises, like worry, we free up a lot of headspace and begin to solve our problems.”
Toni Powell
“Some of the best PD…”

“This workshop has been inspiring for our team that attended. To see the changes in our conversation and written communications has been truly encouraging and something that I am personally very grateful for.”
Gavin Keats National Sales Manager, Network Communications
“Was not a marketing or selling of a concept, it was a palette, a brush and paint and the choice to do something. Very personal, humbling and thought provoking. A smorgasboard of real life, relatable concepts and ideas but underpinned by science.”
Michael Rosengren, COO, KJM Consulting
“Toni is a consummate story teller – people stop and listen. There is humour, sadness, honesty and passion in her presentations.”
Martine Rimmer – Facilitator, Qld Police Service, Brisbane
“All in all, Toni’s workshop is like having heart surgery – you feel like a new and different person afterwards – and its life changing – and life giving.”
Rod Hopping, Director – Heritage HM
“I loved that this was not a pumped-up “motivational” style presentation, but rather low-key, simple and (frankly) quite beautiful. You kept my attention for the whole day. The sharing of your personal story Toni made the information and wisdom you had to share immeasurably more meaningful/powerful/acceptable.”
Matt Parr, Audioligist, Hear and Say
“An honest, challenging and triumphant celebration of how we can powerfully change our own lives for the better.”
