GLS Moments That Change the Way You Lead
with John Robertson | CEO | Global Leadership Network Australia & New Zealand
Do you believe that one catalytic moment can change the way you lead. I’m about to head over to Chicago for the Global Leadership Summit (GLS25) and I’m super excited to be in the room again. The last time I was live at the Summit in Chicago was back in 2011, and for me it was a catalytic moment in my leadership. Amongst all the great speakers it was when Patrick Lencioni said, “If you are editing yourself to manage your own image, people will not trust you and you will not inspire them”. That one sentence challenged me to change the way I led. That moment also introduced me to Patrick Lencioni and the incredible material from the Table Group. We have added below another great GLS moment when Lencioni spoke about ‘The Ideal Team Player’.
Are you in need of a catalytic moment like that? Most of us feel a little trapped in the everyday leadership responsibilities we manage. GLS25 is a great opportunity to unplug from the everyday, refuel, refocus and upgrade your leadership. There are so many ways to experience the GLS this year. Head on over to our brand-new website to see what GLS experience might best provide you with that catalytic leadership moment.
