Bill Wagner
For nearly twenty years, Bill Wagner has been at the forefront of leadership and entrepreneurial practice as a consultant, speaker and author. His speaking engagements place him in front of over fifty executive groups each year. His attendees are entrepreneurs, executives and managers. They are often times members of organizations such as Vistage (TEC), YPO and other CEO peer to peer groups. His firm, Accord Management Systems, Inc., is a behavioral consultancy specializing in the metrics which measure the people side of business. From selection to succession, the company offers a series of interrelated surveys and services designed to improve employee performance and financial success. Bill’s recent book, “The Entrepreneur Next Door”, contains research conducted on over 1,500 entrepreneurs. In this study, Bill benchmarks personality, emotional intelligence and brain dominance, allowing him to measure the gap between “Who” they are versus “Who” they need to be to get the job done. Bill’s firm is also heavily involved in the franchise community, helping over 40 major brands select the right franchisee. He rocks the boat and tells the truth, helping clients become their own organizational therapist. One of the unique aspects of Bill’s presentation is his ability to invite attendees to go on line and complete their own behavioral assessment. This concept drives value for both his presentation as well as the attendee’s organization.
