Try Liebold & Associates Tele-Forums

Tele-forums offer a cost-effective and convenient way for people to meet. They provide a safe, creative, professionally facilitated environment for individuals to explore issues, share information, gain insights, and enhance knowledge. Delivered by facilitated teleconference call, they are usually 60-90 minutes in length and are highly interactive.

During a typical Tele-Forum, participants receive insight, information, feedback, coaching, resources, tips, tools, techniques and valuable new ideas. Tele-Forums can be a one-time event or a series of sessions over time. They can bring together as few as three to as many as 300 people from across the country - or the world.

Participants can call in from anywhere - their home, their office, or even their hotel room. Each year, more and more organizations are choosing Tele-Forums as a primary means of communication and training.

Tele-Forum Technology

No special technology is needed for Tele-Forums. Many organizations use telephone company technology for teleconference calls. The cost can be exorbitant and run into hundreds or even thousands of dollars for a one-hour call. We enable you and your organization to offer a Tele-Forum at a fraction of phone company costs.

Products & Services

We offer a variety of Tele-Forum programs:

Meetings

All kinds of meetings can be hosted by Tele-Forums: board meetings, sales meetings, technology updates, customer information meetings, member-ship meetings, round table discussions - any type of meeting you want to hold.

Training

Tele-Forums can host facilitated interactive training sessions - one at a time or in a series. Content is broken down into efficient modules to facilitate effective use of time. The process allows participants to engage in practice and reinforcement. Topics range from Management Training to Technical Skills Building. Some of our most successful training topics include business planning, negotiation strategies, communication skills, marketing and sales skills, conflict management, decision-making, change management, and creative thinking.

Conference Sessions

When individuals cannot attend a conference, Tele-Forums can bring the conference to them. Conference presentations can be shared and individuals can participate in group discussion in the convenience of their office or their home at a much reduced cost. Sample sessions include, "best of the best" conference presentations, high points of annual meetings, keynote presentations, industry leader presentations, technology updates, and author presentations.

Group Coaching

Facilitated by a trained coach, Group Coaching takes place with two or more people and usually focuses on one specific topic. Group coaching stimulates thinking, encourages interaction, sharing, telling, and bonding. It creates a network (formal & informal), which continues outside of the call and offers different perspectives and new paradigms. Popular topics include work/life balance, stress reduction, life planning, career transition, and effective communication.

Mastermind Groups

Mastermind Tele-Forum Groups bring two to eight individuals together to generate ideas. When minds are brought together, a synergism emerges. A deeper creativity results - a creativity that is greater than the individual talents of the members. Individuals experience "aha's" -- a sudden shift of awareness. Mastermind Groups provide a source of new ideas and act as a resource center for the organization. Some ways our clients use Mastermind Groups include problem solving, new product/service ideas, strategic planning, and visioning.

Custom Programs

We design custom programs based on the kinds of issues and/or training that need to be addressed, the number and type of people that will participate, and the budget requirements of the organization. Tele-forum rates are based on:
