Jim Belasco Speaking Topics

  • Programs

    Heart and Alignment Leaders make THE difference. Leaders transform a collection of well-meaning, good-intentioned, talented individuals into teams and organizations that consistently deliver great performance for their customers.

    Every organization has lots of potential leaders • executives, team leaders, coordinators, secretaries and machinists. The challenge: encourage everyone to be a leader • to step forward and assume responsibility.

    Great leaders establish both a heart connection with their people • and the alignment (discipline) to achieve tough goals. From Admiral Rickover, building the nuclear Navy, to Pat Summit, leading the Lady Vols women's basketball to consecutive National Championships, successful leaders help others win by combining both heart and alignment.

    Leaders... establish heart connections with people and customers surface critical facts and issues engage the people in converting "must do's" into "will do's" align valuable resources with important goals energize learners to open doors, break though walls and let the future in

    Professor Belasco will show you how successful leaders develop an ORGANIZATION OF LEADERS who develop heart connections and the alignment (discipline).

    Create Your Own Future, Make A Difference, Leave A Legacy Strategy provides the road map from the present to the future. The most experienced and capable executives craft this all-important road map. Yet, many companies make wrong turns. General Motors, IBM, McDonald's, American Express, Sears, K-Mart and Disney are just a few of the many organizations that wound up going the wrong way on a one way street. Why? One CEO put his finger on it when he said, "Our strategic planning approach is like using a Piper Cub airplane to keep up with an F-18 jet. We need more horsepower. Tomorrow is coming too fast."

    Professor Belasco takes you BEYOND STRATEGY and shows you how to break the current market boundaries and create your own future. He will show you how to: use a disciplined process for creating your future first then deciding the resources and capabilities you need, engage everyone in the strategy making process, creating ownership for successful implementation align/focus implementation actions, grow the organization by energizing learning.

    Professor Belasco will help your people see a different road to a more competitively successful tomorrow.

    It Is Easier to Create Tomorrow Than Change Today "Change an organization" -• now there is an oxymoron. "Change" is an elusive rare species, often talked about, seldom observed and rarely captured. Why? Almost all change efforts are based upon the assumption that we can change the way people perform. All of our experience • at home and in the office • show us the ludicrousness of this assumption.

    Utilizing the tools outlined in the STRATEGY and LEADERSHIP sections, Professor Belasco shares with us his prescription for changing organizations by creating tomorrow first, and then engaging individuals in implementing that shared vision of the future.

    Encourage individuals to renew themselves by engaging them in the realities of the market place and customer expectations. Develop vision, mission, values, strategies and goals that are aligned across organizational functions and among individuals and their organizational units. Reinvent management systems, business processes, and communications and information infrastructures that reflect and support the renewing individuals and organizations. Maintain a focus on making a difference and leaving a worthwhile legacy.

    Professor Belasco will show you how to ENROLL others in the renewal-change process, rather than the more typical failure-plagued "roll-out" process.
