About the Event: Lead with Impact

Have you ever wondered why, despite your best efforts, your team’s performance doesn’t quite match your expectations? Would you like to learn how to close the gap between your good intentions and your actual impact as a leader?

Only 10% of teams worldwide are high performing. Many team leaders are frustrated with their team's performance. These same leaders are often unaware that a gap exists between their good intentions and their impact.

Lack of awareness arises when we are under stress and focused on tasks, causing us to struggle to maintain the relationships necessary for high team performance.

Team leaders demand productivity - teams exist to produce results. The best teams can sustain productivity year after year. Sustainable high performance is possible! Leaders and team members can close the gap between their good intentions and their impact.

Team performance ignites when you ask:

“How can I take more responsibility for my team's troubles instead of pointing at others?”
“How can I match my good intentions to my impact so I can be the leader my team deserves?”

Through engaging and fun interaction, you will receive solutions and strategies to help your team adapt and perform under pressure, increase focus, narrow the intention versus impact gap, and create a greater, sustainable bottom line.
