LEADING THE WAY FROM WITHIN
If leaders are to address employee disengagement, they must start at the root problem: The rigid separation that exist between one’s personal and professional life.

GOING ALL IN
If we are to truly grasp why teams at work and at home are failing, it comes down to one key factor: a lack of trust.

Key takeaways: • How to build trust that lasts. • Why what’s in it for them, is what’s in it for you. • How to develop a culture of honor. • How to turn conflict into a creative superpower.
MOVING THE NEEDLE OF INFLUENCE
When we let the goals and measures of success override our investment in our people, team members perceive themselves as a means to an end, a product to be consumed, to achieve some stated objective, not the objective itself. We must prioritize people over procedures for better results! Key takeaways: • Learn how to discover your personal purpose • How to prioritize people over procedures. • Develop tools to be efficient through effectiveness.
