I first heard Leigh Anne Jasheway at the Oregon Library Association Conference a couple of years ago.  I was so impressed.  I told people about her and she was invited to our last staff developement day.  She ended the day with a 2 hour presentation that left everyone inspired and laughing.  To find out more about her check out her website at www.pinksunrise.com.  I don't think you'll be sorry if you get her to your staff developement day.


I am a new librarian tasked with staff development and training. I 
really want my first staff development day to be a fun and motivating 
time for our staff. We are the only library in a fast-growing area that 
was once a small southern town. We are still in the south, 
geographically, but our local culture is now much more diverse and our 
population has skyrocketed! The staff copes with change at a terrific 
pace and is usually feeling pretty stretched. Has anyone out there had 
experience locating positive, enjoyable motivating speakers? Perhaps on 
stress management? Perhaps with a public/customer service slant? I 
would welcome any suggestions! I would like for them to leave the day 
feeling like they've been to a spa:) ... pampered and appreciated. (Our 
budget, however does not allow for us to all go for massages.)
