Conversations for Creating Star Performers 

"Shawn Kent Hayashi asks a profound question-'are you inspiring?'  Then through practical, real life examples, she demonstrates how leaders can develop from being motivational to inspirational through the power of conversations. Shawn's energy, enthusiasm, and passion for developing star talent come through in a practical and impactful guide for leaders at all levels."

-Meghan Seybold, executive leadership development, American Express

"Every organization has star performers; however, not every organization is successful in developing them. Shawn's book provides a toolkit and guide for managers to maximize their talent. She artfully leads you through how to engage in effective conversations with your employees to provide them with valuable feedback and development plans to leverage their strengths and obtain peak performance. This is a must read for anyone who wants to cultivate their star performers!
