The events of the last decade - political, social, technological, and economic, coupled with unprecedented changes in the workforce, call for a hard, new look at our leadership practices. Just as we "reboot" the computer when its operating system fails, the leadership system in most people-intensive organizations needs to hit its reset button. While the fundamentals of leadership have not changed, the way we practice them must reflect today's new realities - a world redefined by the economy, technology, and the "new deal" in the workplace. Based on Richard Hadden's new book of the same title, "Rebooting Leadership" is light on theory, with a heavy dose of practicality. This program provides down-and-dirty nitty-gritty how-to's for leaders charged with getting maximum productivity and customer-winning service in today's world of work. ...less

- Sport Clips Haircuts

While our entire meeting got rave reviews, many participants identified your session as one of the highlights, if not the highlight of the event. Much more telling however, was the hallway chatter the next morning. Conversation was abuzz about your presentation, and people were recounting the stories that you told, quoting you, and telling others…
