Follow Me™: How to Grow Yourself and Your People

2021 Annual Conference & Expo
Attendees will gain leadership skills to help them retain great employees and grow a remarkable culture.

Fewer than half of today’s employees believe that their companies deserve their loyalty. Unfortunately, leaders too often confuse profits with purpose and disregard the principles that drive people. This workshop shows the process of developing exceptional leaders and retaining great employees. No matter where you are on the leadership ladder, Follow Me™ will show that great cultures are intentional and that they are cultivated by people who are engaging and transparent and who maintain a style of communication that is frequent, authentic and deep. Employees of great companies see themselves as being part of a greater mission, something that goes beyond pure revenue and profits. This distinctive session will provide a fresh vision of the leader you can be and will identify the knowledge, skills and attributes necessary to grow yourself and your people.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn the styles, mindsets, differentiators and essentials of a leader who drives culture.
  • Gain an understanding of the types of conflict and the barriers to conflict resolution that exist, get tips for constructive conflict management, and learn how to assertively confront people.
  • Learn the blind spots to problem-solving, four steps to consider when problem-solving and the essentials to problem-solving.
  • Learn why people resist change, keys to leading through change, and do’s and don’ts for administering change.
