Simple Delegation:
Six Signs It's Time to Hire a Personal Assistant

Despite high-profile launches and best intentions, most strategic change initiatives fail. As just one example, published failure rates for strategic planning range from 70-90%.

Results don't happen by chance. They happen when leaders build organizations that are systematically aligned with winning - the right environment, right focus and right team. All driven by the right commitment. In this interactive and assumption-challenging workshop, Michael will address each of the four "rights".

To create the right environment, everything that impacts employees has to be painstakingly aligned with winning. Why? Inconsistency means mixed messages, and mixed messages demotivate employees, kill management's credibility, and undermine execution. Michael comprehensively outlines the critical factors that must be aligned to create the right environment and drive results.

To achieve the right focus - one that is compelling, concise and clear - Michael details a robust Strategic Management Process that has proven far more successful than mere strategic planning. A process through which leaders attack their assumptions, narrow their intentions, identify the essential few must-do's, and institute the processes, structure and discipline required to make it happen.

The right team is comprised of a synergy of people with the necessary traits, skills, values and experience to drive execution and results. Michael challenges assumptions about recruiting and selecting the right team, and provides a model and rigorous approach to doing these right.

Using numerous, real-world business examples, supplemented with examples from participants, Michael engages, equips and provokes leaders to rethink their approach to strategy, change and execution.
