"The challenges of today's corporate culture mean that you need to do more with less yet remain quality focused in highly regulated industries. You promote your star performers then realize they're not prepared. They get frustrated, you end up doing their work and worst case scenario - they quit and you've lost your investment in them. I deliver keynote speeches on the value and "how to" of mindful leadership as well as train and develop executives, new managers, and teams. I call out the unique and develop mindfulness, alignment, self-regulation, communication, executive presence, and systems thinking so that you can go back to what you do best and they can be productive and effective." ~ Mary Lee Gannon
Mary Lee Gannon, ACC, CAE is an award winning Mindful Leadership Strategist in the healthcare industry and president of StartingOverNow.com - a coaching and consulting firm that wakes you up from autopilot (your employee engagement, management team, emerging leaders, self-awareness and self-regulation, productivity, organizational vision, innovation, executive presence, doubt, conflict resolution, interpersonal skills) to position your unique Leadership Impact so that you can transform the world instead of just flying around it. She is the author of two books: Starting Over and her latest Reinvent You – From Welfare to CEO.
Your Leadership impact is who you are, not what you do, no matter where you are seated at the table. Your ability to self-manage and self-regulate in any situation comes with practice. How do you know what to practice if you aren't even aware of how you are perceived and what is necessary?
The bottom line of a presentation by Mary Lee...
1. First your team will wake up from autopilot to eliminate the assumptions that hold them back from their leadership impact.
2. Secondly, she will show them how to be more confident and establish the presence necessary to enthuse a movement.
3. Third, she will walk them through the action steps for a clear line-of-sight to self-awareness and in particular how to position their unique value to influence change. Listen to hear, affirm and coach - not fix.
4. And, ultimately your team will generate their own Leadership Influence Signature to deliver big picture transformation that reinvents performance.
