LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT TO OVERCOME REAL PROBLEMS

You are a manager. You have foundational managerial knowledge. You have invested years in your career. However, you still have problems that you fight daily to overcome. Your industry is changing faster than you are. You are overloaded. You face criticism. Your team members are stubborn. Your competitors are aggressive. Your targets seem out of reach. Your resources are stretched. Your plans are overruled. Your authority is challenged. Moreover, you feel the effects on your health because you believe work-life balance is just a pipe dream.



LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT FOR LASTING SUCCESS

How do I know these statements are true? I am both a leader and manager too. Your problems are as real as mine. My first management role was in 1993. I have seen projects fly, but I have also seen them dive. I challenge leadership and management training models because I have experienced and been witness to injustice, unethical business practice, disappointment, and failure. However, I have learned to overcome a multitude of problems and enjoyed success. Therefore, I feel your pain. Now let me help you.



SENIOR MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT THROUGH CUTTING-EDGE TOOLS

I began developing managers, like you, in 1996 and then training them from 2001. I saw many participants harness the tools I gave them, but some refused to change. As a practising manager, I became dissatisfied by the holes in some of the theories. Therefore, I kept remodelling the leadership principles and management strategies that I delivered. I made these adaptations in response to personal research and practise, along with client feedback, so I can finally deliver to you models that work, based upon rigorous testing, rather than pure theory.



LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT TO THINK LIKE A STRATEGIST

I do not have all the answers to leadership and management success, but I interview people regularly who do. In 2012, I started consulting some of the world’s foremost leaders, managers, and entrepreneurs, by conducting exhaustive and exclusive interviews, which we will soon publish in Professional Leader magazine. One Minute Manager Ken Blanchard told me the secrets to developing your leadership style as well as why some formerly accepted models are now redundant. Environmental Attorney Erin Brockovich taught me the art of sustaining compassion and empathy for your people and associates, despite what the world can throw at you. Rich Dad Robert Kiyosaki handed me the keys to financial management and trained me how to think like a strategist, instead of just a manager.



LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT TO DRIVE THROUGH STORMS

Bestselling author and the Master of Attitude, Nick Vujicic, who was born without arms or legs, shared with me how to adopt an attitude, which can drive you through storms, versus one that can lead to your downfall. Serial Entrepreneur and self-made multi-millionaire Lara Morgan gave me the keys to building a watertight organisation, which survives any economic decline and thrives in times of trouble. The reformed Wolf of Wall Street Jordan Belfort used his story of deception and debauchery to warn me of the dangers of greed and the importance of business ethics, moreover, which strategies can yield a high return while still holding on to your integrity.



LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT TO LEAD WITH INFLUENCE

When I spoke with Father of Behavioural Modelling Dr Wyatt Woodsmall, he broke down the mysteries of modelling exemplary behaviour, to help you adopt the skill sets of masters, rather than the crowd. Millionaire Maker and bestselling author of Communicating to Win Richard Denny discussed with me how to lead your people using influence, especially in times of change and crisis to save your ship from going under. I quizzed Power Connector Judy Robinett on how to build sustainable business relationships as well as how to network with people that support your mission and vision.



LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT DEVELOPMENT TO SURVIVE AND THRIVE

These are just some of the valuable consultations, which have led to my refashioning of the many leadership and management models that you may have been exposed to in the past. The way you lead and manage is changing faster than at any other time in recorded history. You have got to upgrade your principles and strategies if you want to survive and thrive in this current market.

Therefore, I invite you to come with me on a journey. If you want your leadership and management development to travel deeper and wider, then enrol on one of our masterclasses right now, which I have designed exclusively for 21st Century managers just like you.

I greatly look forward to meeting you sometime soon on our training course. In the meantime, lead and manage with diligence and integrity.

Yours

Nicholas Hill
