About the Excel in Living Institute:

What would the perfect relationship look like to you?

Can your most significant relationships—love, work, the lifelong friendships you treasure—use a tune-up? Are you looking for ways to change the relationships in your life for the better?

Jim Collister, the Relationship Master™ founded Excel in Living Institute™ in order to provide public seminars focused on creating strong relationships, effective communication and personal growth—using insights and insider secrets previously available only to his corporate coaching clients.

When your relationships, both personal and professional, are suffering from stress, negativity and poor communication—Jim’s wit and wisdom will liven things up, get you laughing and help you recreate your life with his proven formula for personal relationship success.

Jim can help you create, design and maintain better relationships than you ever thought possible. Using his book, “The Last Relationship Book You’ll Need,” as your guide, Jim will walk you step-by-step through each of the Five Universal Principles that govern relationships and teach you how to apply them to your own life.

Jim approaches his subject with passionate conviction and uses real world examples from his own life and research to illustrate his guiding principles. If you’re single, married, male or female—the Relationship Master™ will take you on a profound path of inner exploration. Whether it’s a half-day workshop, weekend seminar, keynote presentation or conference break-out session, Excel in Living Institute™ will provide you with the means to envision, enact and engage yourself in creating the perfect relationship with your family, friends, co-workers and significant other.

“For your life to change, you have to be willing to learn and grow,” says Jim. “This is change. A relationship that does not encourage learning and changing is not a relationship—it is a prisonership.”
