BE AN EVERYDAY LEADER

 

One of the most colossal traps in our working world today is believing we are not ready or good enough to be a leader. Leadership Speaker Jake French wants to erase that belief from your mind by helping your audience realize why their job title has nothing to do with the amount of impact they can have each day. We don’t need more management, we need more people to be a positive influence in the position they already have. By showing you the ideas that are obvious, but often unnoticed, this uplifting speech will give concrete steps that people from every rung on the ladder can use to step up and start acting like a leader.   

Your group wants more than a pep talk, they want a new mindset. Jake’s heroic journey from a totally independent young man on top of the world to being paralyzed from the collarbone down, will inspire your team to take a fresh look at how they adapt to challenges and focus on what can be accomplished, instead of what stands in the way. While clawing his way back to regaining a life, Jake needs assistance to do just about everything. His perspective helps us all understand the ability we each have to make a difference in someone’s day. Often it’s the simple things like making someone feel listened to, valued, or included as an important part of the group. Other times it’s deeper like adjusting your communication style to better connect with someone and going beyond just being right, instead doing what’s right for the relationship.

Join Jake to turn inspiration into action with concrete strategies people at all levels can use to step up and take the reins as an everyday leader so that you get people excited to be a part of your team!
