Emerging from a crisis. Turning around a failing organization. Proactively driving exponential growth. These are times when we are called upon to step-up our leadership. Clients tell me that during these times their employees look for more direction, more involvement – and more leadership. They say that employees feel disconnected from each other and not part of the bigger picture. They want to be more involved. Sometimes it seems the organization itself is in the way; cross-functional collaboration and organizational hierarchy are at odds with each other. Wouldn’t it be great if these could co-exist? Wouldn’t be great if you could exceed your goals, grow your business and have happy, engaged employees?
The ACTIVE leadership model gives leaders a chance to grow their leadership and flex their “leadership muscle.” It can help leaders create a culture for successful growth. Through several case studies, Steve shares how he’s helped executives lead change and grow their organization in the face of increasing competition, advancing technology and a variety of other challenges. The results? You’ll learn how to accelerate change to fuel the growth of your firm and propel your personal leadership success.
