If you ask a room of 100 people what leadership is, you will get 101 different answers... and that's scary. WHY?Because leadership is the #1 cause of success or failure for any team or organization. It's the determining factor. The problem is, there is so much confusion and misinformation about leadership today which causes many organizations and the people within to suffer. How do we know leadership is struggling? Depending on the survey, between 66-77+% of employees are disengaged at work. Why are they disengaged? Ultimately, it goes back to leadership. At least 50% of employees said they’ve left a company because of a manager (and that doesn't include how many want to 🏃‍♂️). In fact, Gallup says low employee engagement costs the world 7.8 trillion dollars in lost productivity 😲.All this due to poor leadership. This doesn't include the businesses that fail nor all the heartache and pain bad leadership inflicts on employees and their families - a cost you can’t calculate. How do we solve this? By learning what it really takes to be an effective leader. That’s where I come in. I guide you past the misconceptions and into the principles that make leaders great. Who Am I?Am I some former big-time CEO or long-term manager? No.In fact, that’s one of the biggest misconceptions about leadership—that position equals knowledge of leadership. That’s just not the case (as we can see from experience and the stats).And when we follow what people say just because they are in a position (such as CEO), we end up hurting ourselves. Instead, I studied and researched leadership in-depth from the great minds of leadership—and that’s what I share with you. I’m the author of “Essential Leadership: 65 Lessons Every Leader Needs to Know,” a #1 New Release and Best Seller in multiple categories on Amazon, which also has been adopted as a university textbook. It’s not just a fluff piece—It’s practical advice that teaches you how to lead well. How I help:- Provide in-person or virtual live training for you and your team.- Host online self-paced courses for you and/or your team. - Speak and teach at your event. If you want to build great leadership in yourself, throughout your organization, or you want the attendees of your event to learn what it really takes to lead well, contact me. CONTACT INFO:Thomas R.
