His corporate training experience began with Xerox in the mid-eighties. There he trained clients on a line of Xerox products. Afterwards, he went on to work as a training manager for a small publishing company in New Jersey. Marc’s work as a training specialist for a Long Island Manufacturer focused on preparing account managers and district managers to better serve their clients and potential clients.

With Long Island University’s Continuing Education Program, Marc helped employees and managers become more effective in their roles. His humor contributed to creative curriculum design and helped participants break through barriers. He designed and delivered courses ranging from Team Building to Managing and Resolving Conflict.

Incorporating a background in psychology, neuro-linguistic programming, and improvisational comedy, Marc has developed a classroom style that is engaging, relevant, funny, challenging and supportive. All of which creates a strong learning environment.

He is active in the Human Resources Society of New York, and is a board member of the New York chapter of the American Society for Training and Development (ASTDNY). This past November he facilitated a panel discussion featuring Chief Learning Officers from JetBlue Airlines and Prudential Financial focusing on solving business problems- where the trainer fits. In June 2005, he will be presenting a workshop in Orlando for attendees at The International Conference for The American Society for Training and Development- Properly Selling Diversity within Organizations.

Karen L. Lare

It is with great regret and a heavy heart, that I tell you our friend and colleague Karen Lare passed away on November 8, 2007.

She was a wonderful woman who couldn't help but give of herself to her work, her kids, her colleagues, and her communities. She was always ready with a laugh and just the right amount of jaded cynicism to keep us all centered.

Here is a copy of Karen's obituary and information on her funeral from the Albany Times-Union:

Karen L. Lare, 60, died Thursday, November 8, 2007 after a brief battle with breast cancer. She graduated from the College of Saint Rose with a bachelor's degree in political science in 1988. Karen wrote a book of poetry entitled "The Prophet of the Future is in the Past" which was published in 2005. She was the president of the American Society of Training and Development-NY Metro Chapter and was also president of Harlem Dowling-West Side Center for Children and Family Services, a not-for-profit child welfare agency. She was a corporate trainer and owned her own consulting firm, KL Consultants. She is survived by two sons, Matthew G. Lare of Montclair, N.J. and Joshua (Cristen) Lare of Guilderland Center, N.Y. She is also survived by several other relatives in Ohio. A funeral service will be held Wednesday at 11 a.m. at the Fredendall Funeral Home, Alta-mont. Friends may call at the funeral home on Tuesday from 4-8 p.m. In lieu of flowers, those who wish may make contributions in Karen's memory to the American Cancer Society, NCICFUL, PO Box 102454, Atlanta, GA 30368-2454.

  I will miss her greatly.

Tim.

"We have got to work together as a team"

An employee is self-centered, focused on her own goal, and apparently unconcerned about the success of the team as a whole. The team member does not think this is true.

"I need you here five days a week"

You have allowed an employee to experiment with a flexible schedule. It is not working out for you. You need to tell the employee that he will need to go off flextime and be in the office 5-days a week.
