Join me on May 21st for a free training where I’ll be sharing with you the 5-step framework all leaders need to build successful teams and organizations. Details and Sign-Up Here. |
| Leadership fails when leaders fail to develop leaders in their organization. It’s a common challenge I see in many organizations. Leaders are so busy and stressed with their own to do lists that they don’t make the time to invest in developing leaders on their team and in their organization. As a result, they get subpar leadership and subpar results throughout the organization…. except where you have a naturally gifted leader or a leader that has developed themselves by reading books, learning from mentors or attending trainings. But these are outliers, not the norm. I’ve noticed that even when leaders aren’t busy and stressed, they also fail to develop leaders on their team and in their organization because A) They don’t realize how important it is or B) They don’t have the frameworks, resources, tools and strategies to develop their leaders. This is why many organizations lose their culture and success at the midlevel of their organizations. Leaders at the top aren’t modeling great leadership and they aren’t cascading leadership down throughout their organization. Great leaders' model great leadership and they coach and develop others to lead well. It requires time, energy and attention but it’s well worth the effort. Having worked with and learned from many of the great leaders of our time I’ve seen what it looks like when leadership succeeds, and I’ve seen what it looks like when leadership fails. That’s why I’m doing this free leadership webinar May 21st. I’m going to share the frameworks, tools, strategies and resources that you can use to develop leaders on your team and in your organization. I hope you join me! Sign up here! Investing in your own growth and the growth of your leaders will ensure that your leadership and your leaders succeed! - Jon |

A key element is a psychologically safe culture where everyone expects the unexpected
and expects to deal with it positively. Difficult issues are ‘gems’ to respect and solve by working together.” - Alan Mulally, Former Executive Vice-President of The Boeing Company, CEO of Boeing Commercial Airplanes, President of Boeing Information, Space, and Defense Systems, and CEO of The Ford Motor Company “Having difficult, messy conversations lies at the heart of teamwork. Jon and Amy have written an immensely readable book to help take the sting out of those conversations, transforming workplace tension into understanding and reconciliation.” - Patrick Lencioni, bestselling author of The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and The Six Types of Working Genius “Excellent communication is critical for bringing values to life in our workplaces and communities. Oftentimes, people shy away from having constructive conversations when situations are challenging, or topics are sensitive. Interpersonal relationships and teams can be strengthened when people choose to artfully navigate around and through these roadblocks by exercising transparency, trust, and vulnerability to reach higher ground. With application of the principles shared, the story of Ruth and her team in this book will help other leaders and teams improve this important skill set and achieve success.” - Cheri D. Benedetti, SHRM-SCP, Senior Vice President, Human Resources Officer, The Villages Health Order your copy today from anywhere books are sold including Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Books-A-Million! |
