State of Readiness
Leading Without Authority
Is it possible to lead when you are not in charge? When you are not involved in the important meetings or conference calls, many would-be leaders give up and stop working toward their ultimate goals. If you want to prepare your team for future leadership opportunities and help them find their voice in their current position, this keynote is for you. During this talk, Jeff will take your team through four key principles that will enable them to carry great influence, even without the title.
Leading Without Authority
Overcoming Setbacks
Even the most successful people face setbacks. When dealt with properly, setbacks can fuel your future achievements. However, if you do not deal with them, they can cause you to stop improving and limit your future success. A setback does not need to be the end of your story. In fact, a setback might be exactly what you need to achieve the success you desire. In this keynote, Jeff will outline six specific ways the most successful people overcome setbacks. Climates change, the unknown happens, and your motivation may vary, but by applying these steps, you and your team will be prepared to face even the most challenging adversities.
Understanding and Developing Your Leadership Style
What kind of leader are you? Do you have a particular leadership style that you usually use? Do you want to learn to use your leadership skills more effectively? Most leaders prefer to use 1-2 styles of leadership. However, great leaders need to be comfortable using a variety of leadership styles. In this keynote, Jeff will present five highly-effective leadership styles that will help your leadership team diagnose situations and ensure that they are using the right style at the right time.
