Management SPEAKERS
Management style has the power to make or break organizations. A manager can be intelligent and experienced, but he or she still needs the skills to delegate, communicate, inspire and support their team. Fortunately, our management speakers can help managers at all levels of an organization become more effective leaders. Their programs focus on how to realize high performance through purpose and values; how to coach and support staff to build loyalty; and processes for building a sense of community for all employees.
Our speakers come from a variety of backgrounds—from CEOs of Fortune 100 companies to professors from Ivy League universities. We can provide you with a management expert whose own professional and personal experience fits exactly with your group’s profile, current challenges and other requirements. The management training our speakers provide will ensure team leaders gain not only concrete employee relations strategies, but also the overall vision to reach overall organizational goals.
Professor Linda Hill, for instance, talks about the Collective Genius in an organization; that every team member has something valuable to contribute, and it is the challenge (and pleasure) of management to ensure that this Collective Genius is fully realized.
Some of our other favorite management speakers include: Henry Mintzberg, Renee Mauborgne, Jim Kouzes, John Kotter, Kay Koplovitz, David Logan, Gary Hamel and Martha Rogers.
