Bill George on Authentic Leadership: Rediscovering the Secrets to Creating Lasting Value

Presented by Bill George
Date:

Leadership... what is it... really? People have been asking and trying to answer this question from the beginning of time. Leadership competencies ranging from envisioning to business acumen have been identified, analyzed, measured and ranked. Yet we are all left wondering if a true leader is someone who possesses something more than an identified set of competencies. Continuing to ask this question and search for answers is essential in the quest to find and develop great leaders. An important source for guidance is the insights of great leaders, such as Bill George.

George speaks with the authority that comes from extraordinary business success. He built Medtronic -- already a good company -- into a great one whose market capitalization grew during his tenure from $1.1 billion in 1989 to over $60 billion when he retired in 2002. George understands today’s pressures and proposes the key to true success is authentic leadership. He will describe what Authentic Leadership is and how mission-driven and values-driven companies outperform those that are driven primarily by financial performance.

Participants in this program will learn:

How to become an authentic leader, developing your unique leadership style and understanding your purpose
Building an authentic company, adhering to the mission and vision of the company while getting results for stakeholders
In the crucible of the market, how to effectively compete and establish leadership
