Leadership strategies grounded in reality and focused on results Recent polls show that 71% of workers think about quitting their jobs "every day." That number would be shocking-if people actually were quitting. Worse, they go to work, punching time clocks and collecting pay checks, while completely checked out emotionally. In "Reality-Based Leadership," expert Fast Company blogger Cy Wakeman reveals how to be the kind of leader who changes the way people think about and perceive their circumstances. Cy guides you to deal with the facts, give helpful and clear feedback to employees, and kindly helps others focus their effort on their contribution and not the nearby drama. Filled with dynamic examples, innovative tools, and diagnostic tests, this book shows you how to become a Reality-Based Leader. It helps you uncover destructive thought patterns within yourself and others, diffuse drama and lead the person in front of you. For those that want to lead more and manage chaos less, this book empowers you to do so. |

| Audio Presentation | Proactively Growing Talent - Performance Coaching and Targeted Development Planning |

In studies comparing successful, thriving organizations to those struggling for growth, proactive talent management was identified as a key indicator of success. Proactive Talent Management includes: identifying which competencies will insure future business results, assessing talent against those core competencies and working to proactively grow talent. Key components of successful talent management programs are coaching and targeted development planning. However, traditional approaches to coaching and development planning are not consistently producing a long line of ready, capable talent with potential to lead the organization. Great news! Cy Wakeman's approach is anything but traditional! In this content-packed session, Cy provides models, strategies and techniques you can use immediately to build great coaching relationships and create targeted development plans to tap the potential of your organization's talent.
