How great business leaders harness emotions to drive success
Are you, like most leaders, focused on what is best for your business? Of course you are, but how do you know what is right? Most can answer that logically and rationally. But what about emotions? Do your emotions help you to succeed? Or do they get in the way of your leadership presence and your business success?
In this session we will explore how emotions contribute, maybe even drive – or undermine – your leadership and your business. Unless you know what to look for, emotions can hijack your best intentions. In this hands on session, Leon will help you align your short term emotional needs and reactions to support your long term success by helping you understand more clearly the emotional drivers of your present and of your future – your vision and your nightmare!
Key takeaways:
