Don't Oil the Squeaky Wheel… and Other Contrarian Ways to Improve Your Leadership Effectiveness

Don't satisfy your customers. Don't have goals and objectives. Be selfish. Sounds like leadership advice that goes against conventional wisdom. That's just the point.

This keynote will challenge you to break your tried-and-true assumptions about leadership that have worked in the past, but need to be revisited, reevaluated and maybe even --- changed.

You will discover the shrewd wisdom of:

  • Don't focus on the bottom line: Instead focus your time and energy on your customers and team members.
  • Don't focus on work: You're not in the widgets business, you're in the PEOPLE business-your people are responsible for 85% of your success.
  • Don't make decisions: Master the art of giving your power away by practicing these two powerful phrases: "What are YOU going to do about that?" "What do YOU think?"

This keynote is based on Dr. Rinke's book Don't Oil the Squeaky Wheel… and 19 Other Contrarian Ways to Improve Your Leadership Effectiveness. It will provide you with highly effective management and leadership strategies that are based on scientific principles and are supplemented by Dr. Rinke's 30 years of hands on management and leadership experience. This presentation is full of practical tips, tools and strategies which you will be able to apply tomorrow to avoid the most common mistakes made by managers and instead build a turned-on, tuned-in, high-performance, customer-driven winning team.

More specifically as a result of attending this energizing keynote you will be able to:

  • handle difficult employees more effectively
  • take advantage of "KID" not "KITA"
  • dramatically increase the level of trust
  • function like a coach instead of a cop
  • achieve dramatic reductions in turnover
  • take advantage of the most powerful retention strategy in this era of rapid change
  • gain more power
  • use a "HOG" to achieve peak performance
  • master specific steps to create and maintain a positive organizational culture
  • practice "MBA" not "MBE"
  • discover how you create behaviors you don't want and what to do about them
  • empower your team members
  • discover how to avoid "downsizing"
  • master specific steps to create the performance you want
  • master the most powerful management principle of all time
  • dramatically increase the satisfaction of your team members
