This definition, when applied to leadership, sounds like the type of place where we want to work. Places where we pursue dreams, not mission statements. Places where we are inspired, not managed. Places where we care about each other, not tear each other down. Where great ideas grow, where customers feel loved, and where we wear our company pride on our sleeves. Places, in other words, where people are inspired and extraordinary results are achieved.

Unlimited Leadership is a heartfelt presentation that has grown from Lance Secretan’s latest book, The Bellwether Effect, which explores a different leadership path, one that steers us away from the dysfunctions in corporate life, enabling us to regain our passion for work life, which of course, will lead to higher performance.

Have you ever wondered “Why are we doing this?”, or “Is there a better way to do this?”

In a special presentation which is based on his new book, The Bellwether Effect, Dr. Secretan explores how and why leaders are attracted to, and seduced by, trendy ideas and the process by which these ideas then become mainstream. He shares eight examples of counterproductive business practices and proposes inspiring alternatives that are proven to lead to transformation and an inspiring culture.

This is likely to be one of the most profound and uplifting speeches on leadership you will ever get to experience.

The need to inspire has never been greater than it is today, as many people feel exploited, cynical, and under-appreciated. In fact, most companies try to motivate their people with traditional leadership models. Secretan’s keynote, Inspire!, offers an alternative way to inspire from within and become a leader that inspires others. It starts with the individual and spreads to transform organizations.

Inspire! teaches business leaders how to ignite superior performance by speaking to the deeper needs of business relationships, and by aligning their desires with your organization’s cause. The keynote provides valuable guidance and shares a host of stories that illustrate how inspiring leaders have transformed their business environment from places of fear and resignation to powerhouses of effective performance.

The key to leadership lies in timeless values that help us to serve others. In this deeply moving presentation, Lance Secretan delves into the “Primary Values” that help us kick-start personal growth and the change of a corporate culture:

· Mastery: Undertaking whatever you do to the highest standards of which you are capable.
· Chemistry: Relating so well with others that they actively seek to associate themselves with you.
· Delivery: Identifying the needs of others and meeting them with respect and a passion.

He then explores the three “Accelerators” to drive the Primary Values:

· Learning: Seeking and practicing knowledge and wisdom.
· Empathizing: Considering the thoughts, feelings, and perspectives of others.
· Listening: Hearing and understanding the communications of others.

Powered by these Values and their Accelerators, Lance shows how our organizations then seek new Direction through Shifts from old values to new ones. For leaders, it is remarkable how much more effective and rewarding their roles become. Thousands of organizations have embraced Lance’s Value-Centered Leadership worldwide.
