The Paradox Of Business Leadership...

The value of your team lies in its diverse viewpoints; with every member bringing different insights and solutions to the table. Conversely, the effectiveness of your team lies in its shared vision. In other words, both the value and effectiveness of your team are driven by its perspective.

Unfortunately, most leaders overlook the central role of perspective in driving every aspect of an organization’s performance.

The Two Crucial Leadership Questions

Your team member's points of view can only be "wrong" in one of two ways; they miss stuff and/or they make stuff up. In general, the stuff they miss cripples their thinking, while the stuff they make up fuels toxic emotions. And so, whenever your team isn't producing the results you want, the first two questions to ask yourself are…

What are they missing?
What are they making up?

Answers to these Two Questions^TM will help you shatter your teams' intellectual blind spots, manage overly emotional and self-defeating behaviors, and blaze a clear path to greater efficiency and effectiveness.

Steve, we have utilized the “What am I missing?” and “What am I making up?” questions on an (almost) daily basis. Sometimes those questions are the answer to an employee who comes to me with a concern or an issue. Many of them are now to the point of saying “I know, what am I missing and what am I making up?”, before I can even get the first words out.

During My Leadership Speech…

I teach business leaders how to run their team's (and their own) points of view through a simple, science-based set of reality checks. Here's a snippet of what your attendees will learn...

The essential fact of life you must understand if you are ever to achieve your true leadership potential. (When you harness this crucial “x-factor,” your team will rave about your motivation skills.)
How to sidestep one of the most devastating mistakes many smart leaders make. (This miscalculation can leave you hunched over your desk burnt-out, unfulfilled and bitter.)
How to quickly and easily answer the Two Questions^TM that stand between you, greater efficiency and improved quality. (Get a better return on your team's skill set, by changing their mindset.)

Effective strategies explained in such simple terms that your business leaders will be able to put them to work immediately; powerful and time-efficient.

Thank you for your outstanding presentation at our team-building event. You exceeded our expectations and we were delighted to see how the group incorporated your ideas.
