Leading and managing people most effectively is far easier than people imagine, but few organizations provide practical training that actually applies in day-to-day challenges.

Dave makes it fast and easy to take away five key skills it took him years to distill from actively testing and succeeding with them in hands-on, day-to-day executive roles in seven highly diverse careers over more than 25 years.

Thousands of executives have applied these skills to become highly effective with people virtually instantly.

From coaching 4500 managers at Hudson’s Bay Company to turn it into a “best company to work for,” Dave refined his approach to a model that can be learned and applied in any situation. He now shares this knowledge with audiences across a wide range of organizations internationally.

Everyone can lead! But few are given any assistance and everyday myths are highly misleading (pun intended). Dave debunks common misinformation like the supposed need for charisma and shows how skills you already have create outstanding leadership, people skills and results in less time than anyone expects.

Here are the quickest strategies, uncluttered to their simplest form so anyone can apply them instantly. They are: seeking positives and striving for honesty in every situation… to create a clear, simple strategy that can be put into use immediately… with basic practice to build effective habits…. As long as these are in balance, success is inevitable.

In an hour keynote, including audience questions, Dave demonstrates with practical examples, how anyone can increase their leadership results, encourage and coach others and create solid gains in any organization. Longer workshops are available to assist leaders in developing specific in-depth strategies if preferred.

YOYO is the order of the day: that is “You’re On Your Own” when it comes to improving work, work-life and results in most organizations. Fortunately you can do it – starting alone if need be, at any level of an organization! Dave illustrates exactly how with stories from personal experience as well as latest research and examples from world leaders.

These essentially Zen principles by-pass stress, as illustrated by Dave’s successes in 7 highly intense organizations, ultimately resulting in 70,000 people at a national top-25 employer voting it a “best company to work for” despite more than 110 re-organizations and mergers in his 14 years as a senior executive there. During that time he also led their Internet start-up, putting international joint ventures into 6 countries in 10 months: what many find stress need not be a barrier to achievement.

A few key strategies everyone can remember and use… in any situation… instantly. Attendees need never wonder about the right approach. Dave’s easy habit-coaching style leadership will rescue tight situations. People excel. They bring out the best in others and resolve long-standing challenges including those involving others.

Years of problem-solving in just a few key ideas. Dave’s experience includes having trained leaders and helped them negotiate, strategize and solve problems in many types of organizations. He assists individuals and organizations in brainstorming multiple solutions to people challenges of all types, frequently citing examples to illustrate exactly how better outcomes can be achieved.

Organization and individual performance multiplies as much as four to ten times or more as shown through latest research and examples. Everyone learns to steadily increase success and accumulate startling total results in the shortest time possible.

Best of all, ethical principles are built in – in keeping with Dave’s history of developing ethics programs in all his roles. The first myth to go is any suggestion that achieving the highest levels of success stem from anything else. As a result customer and staff loyalty build dramatically.

Help the 72% of managers in your organization who have “disengaged” 80% of your people. Yes, those are the statistics throughout North America that show the scope of the challenge. Virtually everyone can lead… but only if we create the right environments by increasing the effectiveness of leadership everywhere. Today’s flatter, stretched organizations required nearly four times the number of leaders as in past hierarchies, yet incredibly high turnover rates are predicted for the next twenty years. No skill in recruiting can fill the gap, yet current staff have enormous untapped skill that could fill it immediately starting today! They’re waiting eagerly for the right words… or….

Convert “command-style” leadership into solid coaching. Perhaps the biggest challenge today is dealing with increasing complexity and a more diverse mix of staff – all generations, cultures and styles. In the past, “command-style” produced acceptable results. In today’s complicated environments, leadership is more difficult for many and must go beyond a basic command approach, but it need not be a difficult stretch – and, reassuringly, can produce result far better results than expected in old-style organizations.

Dave is easily booked, completely reliable and helpful.
