Haydn Shaw, Senior Consultant

Haydn is FranklinCovey’s practice leader in Generations. He is the author of Leading Across Generations®, FranklinCovey’s popular workshop and two-hour webinar.

His generational keynotes make people laugh. As they laugh, they quit complaining about the generations and start to learn why they differ and how to turn those differences into productivity and sales.

In addition, organizations turn to Haydn for consulting help with: (1) Designing succession and leadership development plans for those who will replace the retiring Boomers; (2) adapting communications, policies, and systems to make each generation more productive; and (3) resolving generational tensions.

FranklinCovey’s Leadership, Execution, and Personal Effectiveness Programs

Haydn has taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People more than 1,000 times and is still excited about its life-changing principles. He gets even more excited when he consults with employees representing the front line on to the organization’s leadership. Clients have reported triple the impact when that happens.

Haydn also facilitates the 4 Disciplines of Execution as well as FrankinCovey’s other leadership, management, and trust courses. With his coaching and consulting, he helps clients implement what they learn throughout the training process. He also helps them facilitate teams in conflict resolution.

The Big BurpTM

Nothing is more frustrating than trying to turn around negative employees in negative environments. Haydn has developed an exciting methodology he calls The Big Burp®. The Big Burp® focuses on teams, divisions, and organizations that face demoralizing times and don’t bounce back. Through speeches, half-day training, and hands-on consulting, Haydn’s four-part methodology helps these negative, low performing teams to become productive.

The metaphor of burping a baby helps managers understand how to keep their teams from turning negative as well as what to do if they already have. Leaders learn how to separate the dangerously negative from the merely irritating people. They also learn how to keep negative people from taking over a team, particularly during times of change.
