Speaking Topic

• Accelerating Results through Self-leadership: Leadership is the process of influencing others in a manner that enhances their contribution to the realization of group goals. Effective Leadership is a function of the Leader’s Style, Followers’ Motivation and Skills, and the Business Environment. This requires self-awareness, self-learning, and self-regulation, in short, self-leadership. Everyone can be a self-leader, taking ownership and responsibility for achieving objectives, but often hit the roadblocks of ‘framing’ and ‘firefighting’. Andrew illustrates how to accelerate with self-leadership and achieve accelerated results by having the right conversations. Participants leave inspired, with increased ownership, self-awareness, and a practical framework to improve their leadership conversations, and deliver results.
