“21st-Century Leadership: Leading Through Language” - Leadership is in crisis. And in the rough seas of a borderless economy, the Internet, and outsourcing, a seismic shift has changed the game. Virtually anyone can lead now. But how do you breed principled leaders? Is leadership a matter of DNA, culture, or coaching? In this interactive and action-packed workshop, Dr. Zweifel will show you how to lead through language. The listener will learn how to become a great communicator who builds trust and gets results through effective speaking and listening, how to avoid culture clashes and manage skillfully across cultures, how to unleash people power for performance, and how to turn breakdowns into breakthroughs.
