Leadership Trainer Jo Lena Johnson Returns Home To Help St. Louis Keep Talented Workforce
Johnson offers her leadership workshops to organizations looking to create a loyal workforce
Sept. 24, 2010: ST. LOUIS, MO – Though most employees are generally satisfied with their current job, one in three will likely seek employment elsewhere this year as the economy improves, according a 2010 report from the Society for Human Resource Management. World renowned leadership trainer Jo Lena Johnson has returned to her native St. Louis to help its businesses and organizations keep their talented workforce.
"St. Louis businesses can’t afford to lose the talent they worked hard to obtain over the years,” said Jo Lena Johnson, author, speaker and managing partner of Absolute Good Training and Life Skills Management. “As the economy improves, employers need to pay attention to all aspects of employee satisfaction.”
Wrapping up summer appearances across the country and gearing up for fall events, Johnson announced her availability to offer organizations her workshops, training sessions and keynote addresses to help St. Louis companies increase effectiveness and become measurably more vital with a strong workforce.
With more than 10 years of experience in training and development, Johnson has addressed thousands of businesses and organizations in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada on the topics of crucial conversations, personal and professional development, leadership training and teambuilding. Her seminars provide substantial tools, tips and techniques to bring forth leadership skills in everyone.
“In today’s businesses and organizations, the need to understand, cooperate and successfully co-exist are vital to their ability to create measurable and quantifiable results,” she said. "I teach people to get along with others by learning how to get along with themselves."
Johnson’s life mission to inspire leadership and success in others drove her to author a book series entitled, “If You Really Want to Live, Be Extraordinary” and “If You Really Want to be Successful, Get Connected.” She also authored a collection of youth leadership titles, including “A Light is Born: 7 Ways to Show Your Brilliance” and “U.R. Absolute Good: Life Tools for the Young and the Young at Heart.” Each book details living life to the fullest, both professionally and personally. The books are available for purchase online and are used as reference materials for her presentations.
“My goal is to improve not only businesses, but communities with practical techniques to create understanding and manage conflict through better communication,” she said.
