No-Drama Leadership: Overcoming Dramatic Obstacles to Business Growth

Whether it’s internal conflict, lost customers, lowered productivity, turnover or impending lawsuits, every leader faces a certain amount of “drama.”  The biggest mistake is wasting time and money on temporary fixes. You must get to the root of drama to turn obstacles into opportunity. 

In this session we explore the root cause of drama and how a problem-orientation affects decision-making. You will learn how to immediately shift your focus to stay in charge of the situation instead of getting engulfed in the problem. Stop wasting time and money on ineffective solutions. The real problem is not the one that you see, and the right solution is different than you think.
