One of the best organizations I ever had the pleasure of becoming a member of assembled a team of pentathletes (people who could do more than one thing), each with tremendous character, high standards for themselves and others and a willingness to embrace the art of the possible. Within any organization building healthy teams are foundational to long-term success because healthy teams improve operating efficiency by solving problems at the lowest level, are positioned to adapt to market shifts and healthy teams experience low employee turnover which improves predictability.
The thrust of being “Born 2 Lead” is to equip aspiring leaders with my top 3 most proven leadership traits that I routinely saw in successful people who were leading high performing organizations. Being “Born 2 Lead” is available to any lifelong learner who is willing to blossom from where they have been planted. I’ll also dispel the notion that some of our greatest leaders were destined to become Born Leaders. Instead, being “Born 2 Lead” offers that Leadership is Deliberate (the inward facing you), Leadership is Demanding (the outward facing you) and finally Leadership is Lasting (has generational impacts). Based upon 33 years in continuous leadership positions I’ll offer the audience a behind-the-scenes perspective of why the best leaders are “Born 2 Lead”.
All too often I became witness to hearing stories about aspiring blue-chip leader's fall from grace. While most high performing organizations already run developmental programs aimed at teaching you how to be successful within the company, not enough teach you how to handle that success. Like it or not, successful people live under a microscope or in a fishbowl where their daily behavior is closely observed and/or scrutinized in ways that require periodic alignments (like a car) to remain on the road to success. Let's talk about choosing the hard right over the easy wrong!
It's often said, there's no such thing as luck. And when it comes to climbing the professional ladder I couldn't agree more. In climbing the ladder I'll describe what "your role" is and is not and how you rarely get a second chance to make a good first impression. I'll also share my most sought-after personal traits which I observed in other people during my 30+ years in leadership positions. Let's take the mystery out of promotions.
Placing emphasis on your Mental, Physical and Emotional wellbeing are necessary steps to achieve professional heights. Leadership is not a sprint, it's a marathon that includes much more than hard work alone.
