Leading4Results™ is an annual Executive Leadership getaway that focuses on strengthening Individual and Corporate Excellence.
Leading4Results™
The last few years have brought unprecedented change in multiple economic sectors across the world, forcing leaders and business managers to rethink what their roles are in these times and what the requirements for leadership and successes will be going forward.
Business and leadership as we know it has changed. And so must you and your business.
We have identified, among many parts, critical areas we believe will continue to have relevance in the foreseeable future for both individual and corporate relevance, productivity, and sustainability.
We believe if business leaders and managers focus on these areas and lead their organizations along these paths, real and pleasant consequences will follow:
Corporate Purpose & Leadership
Many Fortune 500 Companies are already retracing their steps in order to align with the original purpose when they set out for business. Top executives in organizations like Microsoft, Google, DBS Bank, UPS are already crafting policies along their corporate purpose, because, according to most of them, the corporate purpose continues to be their bedrock, helping them to purse goodness in the world while exceeding shareholders expectations. These realities are possible because the purpose overrides vision and it presents the true essence of any organization. At this year’s event, you and your executive team members will learn:
How to identify which corporate purpose will serve to propel and sustain your personal and corporate energy towards achieving the right results in the markets where you conduct businesses.
Through present global practices, reframe what your corporate purpose and vision are to help your organization redefine what success means.
Understand how top organizations around the world position themselves through their dominant purpose and the mistakes they avoid to remain relevant and increasingly profitable.
Recognize your dominating strengths through the globally acclaimed CliftonStrengths developed by Gallup and aim these strengths to improve your leadership of your teams.
Business Stories & Marketing
Marketing has passed through different phases in the last five decades. Crafting and telling business stories are presently judged the most powerful tool for attraction and conversion. It defies consumer apathy and opens doors to increasing patronage. It has been said that consumers do not buy products, they buy the stories that the products tell or help them tell others. This event will help you to answer the following questions:
How would you develop the right business stories that fit the right narrative customers want to embrace and patronize on a consistent basis?
How do you strengthen your individual brand identity and begin to craft the right story for yourself as a leader to project the power and possibilities that you hold in your organization?
What other narratives are competing with your individual and business stories and how can you present a better version in a competitive business space.
Culture & Organizational Alignment
Organizational Alignment is a critical area that infuses people and culture with the right processes. No longer will “what gets done” conflict with “how things get done.” Understanding how organizational alignment works will ensure everyone in the organization travels in the same direction, at the same speed, and supporting each other. At this event, you will learn how to:
Hire right. You will learn to apply the principle of alignment from the point of hiring, to open the door to the right people as well as know how to remove those who do not fit into your strategic alignment.
Understanding teams’ dominant strengths helps move from dependent team members to interdependent team members, thereby complementing their strengths, increasing cohesion, trust and teamwork.
Measure what matters and craft the right performance measurement that is driven by the parameters and reward.
Innovation & Future Realities
In the future, whatever can change, will change. Changes are products of three leading factors: Consumer Behavior, New Technology and Social Activism. Through these leading factors, change has been forced on many industries, particularly because they were not ready for it. By understanding present trends, you can predict the future and gain mastery of it. Afterall, it is the future you create than you control.
Attending this event will help you:
Appraise existing products/services and critically decide on the right business model that identifies vulnerable products/services to change and which should be strengthened.
Drive a culture that anticipates change and learn leadership dynamics that will create the right atmosphere of reward for this leading
Develop a template that anticipates future realities for your industry and organization.
Workplace Expectations Have Changed | The Practice of Management must evolve.

– My Paycheck My Purpose
– My Satisfaction My Development
– My Satisfaction My Development
– My Boss (The Past) My Coach (The Future)

As a business leader or manager, you will have to begin to make these shifts as you lead people into a future of opportunities and uncertainties where nothing is guaranteed.
