You're Not an Acronym - A Practical Approach to Leadership

Wednesday, December 12, 2018, 1:00 pm CST

If you’ve been a leader for a while or are being groomed to become one, then you’ve probably taken your fair share of personality tests. Perhaps you know your Woo strength, or maybe you’ve recently discovered that you’re a purple triangle when you’re stressed. If this kind of information is all you need in order to be the kind of leader your people are excited to follow, then you probably don’t need this webinar.

But if you’ve ever suspected that leadership may be about more than just you, then You’re Not an Acronym is the kind of leadership webinar you’ll truly appreciate. Matt Havens has spent over a decade in various leadership positions at a Fortune 50 company. Coupled with his experiences as a keynote speaker, Matt has recognized a fundamental flaw in the way we attempt to help people become better leaders. By addressing and then correcting this oversight, You’re Not An Acronym will help you expand your understanding of leadership exponentially – and you’ll do it while laughing all the while. Because not only is this one of the most insightful leadership webinars you’ll ever join, it’s also one of the funniest. After all, boring isn’t a business requirement. So get ready to enjoy the process of becoming a more effective leader more than you ever thought possible!

During this webinar, we will discuss:

  • Understand the value (and limitations) of personality tests and other types of self-analysis as they relate to improving your leadership
  • Recognize your own leadership blindspots and generate a new leadership philosophy statement and mindset
  • Discover the two pillars of effective leadership – neither of which have anything to do with you!
  • Develop a system for creating roadmaps for success that everyone can get behind, including people who operate differently from you
  • Realize that talking about leadership doesn’t have to be mind-numbingly boring!
