COURAGE TO EXECUTE

Addressing Complexity. Becoming Agile. Leading through Change. Innovation. Operational Excellence. Developing Leaders. Retaining Top Talent.

Do these sound like a myriad of challenges, many of which you and your organization today face? Do your strategies to address and excel in these areas seem disconnected and paralyze your people? Would you believe a firm has spent the last two decades evangelizing and demonstrating that in fact they are all connected? And better still, there is a simple, holistic set of tools and techniques you can apply to address them all – simultaneously?

Aligned with the release of his 5th book Courage To Execute, Jim not only shares how leaders can address these challenges and seize these opportunities, he details the simple, scalable process that elite military teams and key clients leverage to survive, thrive and dominate where competitors fall short.

Leveraging video, corporate and military analogies and Lessons Learned from his work advising Executives at 85% of the Fortune 50 and dozens more, this keynote will inform and empower leaders to scope the environment, drown out the noise, align strategy to execution and empower leaders to demonstrate a Bias to Action – the secret to winning in the today’s business environment.

ALIGNED TO SCALE

Great leaders don’t make decisions based on the past, they compel their teams forward by bringing alignment towards the same mission. But how do the best leaders motivate their teams to complete the same mission? They create ultimate buy in by communicating a clear mission and giving everyone a seat at the table.

Employees want to be heard across all levels and know they are part of the vision, mission and intent of the company they work for. As we’ve seen again and again over the past few years, employers are struggling to keep their talent which detracts dramatically from profits and the overall success of the organization. Teams need a clear, simple and compelling mission. A mission where everyone understands the unique, vital role they play, feel their input matters and ultimate end game they are collectively working towards.
