Increase Your Influence: Strategies for Strengthening Impact and Confidence

Dr. Brenner’s emphasis on communication, harmony, ownership, respect, direction, and support all playing an important role in successful teamwork was inspiring. The energy that he brought to the session was infectious, and his ability to connect with the audience was impressive.

Within a year of Dr. Brenner’s training, at least 5 attendees had been promoted to more senior-level positions. Dr. Brenner’s style kept attendees focused and interested. We have received an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from the attendees with regard to the training, and we saw improvement in the leadership of their areas.

Dr. Brenner’s ability to interact, engage, and influence future and current leaders is excellent. His enthusiasm and creativity shine through the class materials and exercises, which are fun and practical for the work environment. Dr. Brenner influences leaders to motivate, engage, listen, and empathize with colleagues and direct reports.

What I like most about Dr. Brenner is that he wants to be involved not only in the development of the training program but also in the follow-up afterwards. I highly recommend him. He will help transform your employees through an enjoyable and interactive training experience.

Dr. Brenner has done great work for us. We are very pleased with the results of his training. He displays a very professional and conscientious attitude towards his work. I would recommend him without hesitation!

Michael delivers amazingly passionate, inspiring and innovative messages. His natural talent to relate with others and provide presentations and insights that connect with his audience has energized me to reflect on my own abilities. Interactions with Michael will always provide knowledge and motivation.

Mike is a talented musician and gave a very interesting and unique perspective on collaborating and appreciating the differences we can all make in achieving our goals. I would highly recommend Mike if you are looking for an engaging and creative speaker with a unique perspective as to how your team can work well together.

Mike led a wonderful session for my team to help us build a stronger group culture, learn more about one another, and set a vision together for success. He kept the team engaged, interested and often laughing through the afternoon.

Michael’s presentation captured the attention of the audience and gave practical tips on leadership, culture and management. His unique background, paired with his musical abilities, enabled attendees to tap into their creative mindset and think outside the box.

Looking for someone to get your team engaged? I would highly recommend Mike Brenner. He came to PECO’s Smart Grid Services All Hands Meeting and hosted a workshop on team building. Mike kept the team focused and engaged while surprising the team with a musical activity that promotes his belief that “When people work in harmony, great things happen!™” Thanks for a great event!

As part of our department’s goal to be more innovative, we brought in Mike to present on design thinking and creativity. The presentation went so well that we brought him back as a facilitator for the innovation taskforce we subsequently created. Mike was crucial in helping us establish and maintain an environment conducive to brainstorming and developing ideas. This whole process was a great experience.

Mike partnered with my team in delivering a High Impact Communications training session to our leaders. We received overwhelmingly positive feedback from our participants. Mike is an engaging and unique speaker that I hope to work with again!

Great knowledge of emotional intelligence and team dynamics! He has a way of teaching and presenting that sucks you in! Time flies (and doesn’t feel like training) in his sessions. Even seasoned leaders will get something out of Mike’s leadership training. Highly recommend him!

It’s rare that you come across standout talent like Mike! Mike was instrumental in crystallizing abstract leadership concepts and harmonizing ideas to practical tools enhancing my skills as a team leader and ultimately company productivity.

Dr. Michael Brenner presented his leadership program “The Power of Accountability” for the Columbus Chapter of the Institute for Management Studies. It was an engaging and practical session in which we learned that leaders must create the conditions – the culture – for associates to want to be accountable by consistently playing the right “notes” that are the foundation of accountability. If you want to build a culture of trust, employee engagement and collaboration to delight your customers and create competitive advantage, you can find no better resource to help you than Michael Brenner!

Dr. Brenner designed and facilitated a six-month leadership development program for our mid-level managers. The enhancement of the attendees leadership skills and knowledge was evident during the program and beyond.

Dr. Brenner’s emphasis on communication, harmony, ownership, respect, direction, and support, all playing an important role in successful teamwork, was inspiring. The energy that he brought to the session was infectious, and his ability to connect with the audience was impressive.
