Profiting From A Complaint Free Workplace

You Can’t Complain Your Way to Health, Happiness, And Success.

We are bombarded by thousands of complaints both at work and at home.

And, you may be wondering…

What’s wrong with complaining?

Negative Workplace Culture:
Complaints from customers, coworkers, friends, family, the news, and social media poison attitudes leading to an unhappy, unproductive, and unprofitable workplace culture.

Lower Profits:
Complaining increases stress, illness, absenteeism, burnout, and turnover negatively impacting the bottom line.

Leadership Problems:
Complaining causes discord, creates alliances, and kills cooperation.

Mental Health Issues:
Complaining increases anxiety and tension. This stress limits the ability to think clearly and learn efficiently.

Lack Of Future Focus:
Complaining keeps attention on past mistakes obscuring new solutions and future opportunities.

Decreased Sales:
Complaining customers will soon become former customers if their complaints are not handled properly.

THE COMPLAINT-FREE SOLUTION

As the World Authority on Complaining, Will teaches a powerful and simple framework that your audience will both remember and use.

Weaving inspiring stories and humor along with life-changing information, Will teaches how to identify the real reason behind every complaint AND what to say to spin that complaint into positive contribution.
