Primary activities focus on enhancing Leadership performance & building  effective teams by using concepts & methods that are fundamental to the most useful principles of Total Quality Management (TQM), Situational Leadership, Six Sigma, “Re-engineering,” Fish! & other proven philosophies & models. 

From a first line supervisor's primary look at the fundamentals of Leadership &  management to senior level Leaders/managers "refresher visits" to concepts and strategies that are lost in daily routines, "burnt by the latest blaze", or simply OBE (overcome by events) -- Steve Hummel can Help!!

Steve’s Leadership & training background is extensive. Training activities  started in 1973 & he began consulting on a frequent basis in 1988 after  completing the intensive Performance & Productivity Consultant Certification.  His first-hand experience with local, statewide & national businesses, along with government, military, high tech -- low tech -- no tech & non-profit organizations  provides a solid foundation for high quality assistance in solving an  organization’s Leadership & management challenges. 

Consulting & training activities cover a wide range of topics from strategic planning to interpersonal communication & group/team development, optimizing time, meeting facilitation, sales & Customer relations. These topics and more can viewed on pages 2 and 3 of this document! Leader transition retreats, planning sessions & team building workshops (specialties) respond to the unique circumstances of Leaders and their teams while individual Leadership coaching develops targeted skills. 

All planning & training sessions are heavy on group interaction & participation  while very light on lecture. Small groups of 8 -16 provide the best results & large groups can be accommodated. Most topics can be addressed in various lengths  of time from onsite introductory or refresher seminars (1 - 4 hrs.) to focused  workshops (3 – 18 Hrs) to highly intensive sessions of several days (normally off-site).
