How Great Leaders Transform Organizations and Create Winning Cultures
Business as usual, bad moods, and mediocre expectations are indicators of a MUCH BIGGER problem!
Develop the right culture by knowing why you’re in the game. Understand the essence of your core values. Make sure everyone on your team knows them and more importantly believes in them. Learn to live your brand in everything you do.
Every company ever created started as a story, an idea that inspired other people to join and believe in the cause and over time companies forget and lose that passion. Now more than ever, businesses need to know and own their purpose to survive, transform, and win.
Most companies fail to understand and protect their impact over time. A majority of any given workforce doesn’t fully know their company’s values and sense of purpose:
Only 27% of employees actually know their own company values 51% of employees are disengaged in their current positions. Over half the workforce is currently able to contribute more to their operations!
Know your purpose and lead with your values. Own your hero factor
Think Big, Act Bigger
The Rewards of Being Relentless
The book, and the program, is a take-no-prisoners, no BS, attitude adjustment for those of us who call ourselves entrepreneurs. Following the success of his prime-time show, C-Suite With Jeffrey Hayzlett, companies and events always want to know what is the secret behind the success of entrepreneurs and executives who can move mountains. "I’ve owned franchises, ran small businesses (and sold over 200 of them), and I have been the CMO of a Fortune 500 company. I’ve learned that in every business and in every industry, limitations exist everywhere - mostly in our minds and in the stories we tell ourselves. Getting past these limitations is hard work. My new book and keynote focus on the attitude we need to overcome the obstacles that face our businesses every day. No one is coming to save us, none of us will win the lottery. Everyone can think big, the art is in acting bigger.”
Think Big Act Bigger LONG
Based on the book from Jeffrey Hayzlett and Entrepreneur, comes Think Big, Act Bigger: The Rewards of Being Relentless. The book, and the program, is a take-no-prisoners, no BS, attitude adjustment for those of us who call ourselves entrepreneurs. Following the success of my prime-time show C-Suite With Jeffrey Hayzlett, companies and events always want to know what is the secret behind the success of entrepreneurs and executives who can move mountains.
I’ve owned franchises, ran small businesses (and sold over 200 of them), and I have been the CMO of a Fortune 500 company. I’ve learned that in every business and in every industry, limitations exist everywhere – mostly in our minds and in the stories we tell ourselves. Getting past these limitations is hard work.
Whether it is fear or doubt or something else, the most dangerous move in business is the failure to make a move: The history of business is filled with companies that no longer exist because their leaders refused to enact change when the writing was on the wall. Kodak thought it was still in the film business and ignored its own work on the digital camera. Blackberry thought its proprietary communication method could stem the need to innovate. Oldsmobile just got old with its customers and when they started to die, so did it. That’s the difference between “Thinking Big” and “Acting Bigger” and what Think Big, Act Bigger means: knowing how to tie visions to actions and getting beyond limitations, preconceived notions, structures, and differences and delivering for the future. That’s leadership. That’s what is going on in the most successful C-Suites across this country.
In the end, Think Big, Act Bigger: Secrets of the C-Suite gets readers to ask: What is our goal? What would it take to make it bigger faster? What is our purpose? How do we build that thoughtfully and as quickly as possible in a way that we believe in?
My new book and keynote focus on the attitude we need to overcome the obstacles that face our businesses every day. No one is coming to save us, none of us will win the lottery. Everyone can think big, the art is in acting bigger. Let’s overcome obstacles and kick business up to the highest level.
Thinking big and acting bigger is all about action and attitude: being fearless and bold – willing to put oneself out there, steamrolling obstacles, ignoring perceived boundaries, and even being a little irrational.
Running The Gauntlet
Jeffrey Hayzlett’s Running The Gauntlet is a rough-and-tumble guide for running and driving change through the business gauntlet. Hayzlett addresses what every business leader must face: Getting Ready, Getting Going, and Creating and Sustaining Momentum. Hayzlett shows business leaders and owners how to develop the necessary mental, emotional, and physical toughness they must have for smart, strategic, and lasting change. Hayzlett forces leaders to really get up in their own businesses – to take them over from the inside and drive change – gaining customers and profits in the process. Attendees will be able to efficiently assess what kind of change their business needs and then summon the vision, courage, and passion to enact it.
Inspirational Takeaways:
-Develop a “takeover mentality” to execute the right changes and deal with any disruptions they may cause
-Summon the vision and courage necessary for driving change and sustaining your company’s newfound momentum
-Sharpen the mental and emotional toughness to make strategic, lasting change
