Soaring With Your Signature Strengths, created by Erica Whittlinger, is an intensive, exhilarating workshop for business leaders and managers. The principles of optimizing strengths will flow straight to your bottom line in terms of employee engagement, productivity, customer satisfaction, and profits. Discover the tools to achieve what experts call “authentic happiness.”
Join Other WPO Members
Hosted by the Minneapolis and Salt Lake City Chapters, this workshop is for WPO members. Adult daughters (in-law), other women business owners, and professionals in private practice are welcome.
The Signature Strengths Program
Practice may not make perfect, but passion does. The best-performing leaders don’t focus on their employees’ weak points; they focus on bringing out the best in them. People who are encouraged to do what they do best are more productive, satisfied, and engaged. And they’re happier! Similar principles apply to top-performing teams. Moreover, when people play to their strengths, customer satisfaction soars along with productivity and profits.
“This work has been scientifically researched and validated, but what I really love about it is that it’s 100% positive. No judgments, no labeling, no putting people in boxes. It’s about enhancing your natural abilities and those of your employees to make your business—and your life—even better. The best part is that we’ll play with these ideas on the ski slopes. It’s a great way to integrate mind, body and spirit!” says Erica.

Daily “Soaring With Your Signature Strengths” Sessions
We’ll convene Saturday evening at the luxurious, Austrian-style Goldener Hirsch Inn mid-mountain at Deer Valley.
