Lillian Bjorseth

A client said Lillian Bjorseth could read the IRS tax code and make it interesting. Others say she has a radiant style and wit that put her in a class few attain and that she is a master at her craft. The Chicago Tribune calls Lillian a “networking expert” and the Association Forum of Chicagoland dubs her the “business networking expert.”

One thing you can always be sure of:  She’ll educate, entertain and inspire your audiences in her lively, interactive, inimitable way!  Lillian is at ease with CEOs and administrative assistants. She’s equally at ease with inspirational keynotes, workshops, in-house DiSC-based training (one of the first in the world to become a certified trainer), entertaining luncheon or dinner talks or skills coaching. Her confidence and zeal create the learning environment you seek and get her consistently awesome reviews.

Lillian has helped tens of thousands of people nationwide build more social capital by improving their networking and communication skills, skills she believes are the 21st century tools to build relationships that help increase sales and enhance careers. She urges large companies to embrace the concepts that small business has long used successfully.  Her zest to have colleges and universities teach these skills has led her to develop what may be the first online in-depth relationship-building series.

  • Build a New Kind of Wealth: Social Capital.

    Building social capital is just as vital as increasing financial capital. Advanced degrees and experience won’t help you get ahead when you lack “knob turners” to get you the appointment or interview. Learn the importance of your aura, your natural networking strengths and limitations, the importance of you benefit-laden Verbal Business Card, the 10-Minute Rule to Work a Room and much, much more.

  • If You Want to Catch Trout, Don’t go to a Catfish Pond

    The days of cradle to grave security are over, and building relationships is your key to controlling your destiny. Networking can be an incredibly time-consuming process unless you do it strategically. You need to create a relationship-building plan and set goals to meet your objectives. This involves determining your business/career focus, target market and where and how to meet them and being well-versed in networking techniques. 

  • Look What Happens When We Communicate

    The ability to communicate well is your most valuable personal and business skill. Learn why something you have been doing since birth can be so difficult, confusing and hard to change, yet vital to everything you do! Lillian shares her Ten Principles of Communication through exercises and discussion to help you break the process into its myriad parts and then put it back together to create your personal communication plan.

  • Improve Your PeopleSmarts to Build Better Relationships

    Benefit from Lillian’s years of DISC-based, award-winning and often life-changing programs to resolve conflict, improve communication, develop management and staff, build better teams.  Includes boards of directors, customer service, e-mail, leadership, networking, presentation skills, sales and telephone applications.

  • What You Say Before You Speak

    Make your appearance and behavior contribute to your polished presence and success because both speak long before you open your mouth. People decide 10 things about you in the first 10 seconds they see you based on your image and often determine rather they want to work with or hire you - or not. This lively, interactive, practical program vividly shows you how your clothing color, style and fit and posture, handshakes, eye contact and facial expressions affect the conscious and unconscious decisions others form about you.
