Recognizing Leadership Qualities
Leadership comes in many forms. In the family, a father is considered the leader of the home; in team sports, the captain or skipper is considered the leader of the team; while the CEO or manager is considered the leader in a company or organizations. The leaders in all three examples have something in common, which is that they guide, manage, and direct others to accomplish different tasks. In the case of the father, his work is to ensure everybody is taken care of in the family financially and otherwise. That of the captain of a team sport is to ensure the other members of his or her team effectively carry out their jobs, and the team wins every match they play. While the job of the CEO or manager is to ensure all employees do their jobs properly and the company is always making a profit.
Most Requested Leadership Speakers
In general, a person with strong leadership qualities has the capability of making planned and visionary goals and convincing others to pursue these goals. A leader does this by setting specific goals and then motivating others and instilling in them the desire to succeed and achieve those goals. A good leader does not only talk the talk, but he also walks the walk by ensuring he steps up in periods of crisis, and can think creatively in dire situations.
Increase Your Leadership Skills
There are individuals who are what they call natural born leaders; probably due to the fact of where they grew up or their past experiences, they developed strong leadership skills. However, the good thing is that everybody can learn and improve their leadership skills through proper mentoring, guidance, and coaching by individuals who have vast leadership skills. These individuals are known as leadership speakers; they lecture people on various leadership skills and how to become effective leaders. They also help people hone their leadership skills so as to become better leaders.WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING

"I wanted to start off by saying that Simon was one of the most popular speakers we've had to date, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great speaker to kick off their conference. Our attendees have said he was one of the best they've ever seen. I hope you had as pleasant of an experience working with us as we had with you. As I'm preparing to plan the 2016 conference, I have a strange request. Do you (or Simon) work with any other keynote speakers that you might recommend? We would use Simon again if we could (and maybe down the road we can), but I want a speaker that has the potential to be dynamic and wonderful like Simon."

"Just to let you know it is nearly impossible to get a standing ovation from our staff and you did it. You were in a difficult time slot as well, the closing morning after two nights of late night entertainment. The reviews for your presentation at both sessions were unbelievable. Here are a couple of quotes for you:"Never have I laughed so hard and learned so much - all at the same time, thank you.""I didn't realize how much I needed to laugh. It really felt good. Thanks so much for Steve Rizzo!Steve, you were the perfect person for the challenge of entertaining and teaching our group. I thank you for your work and hope to see you again in the future"Rene Ewing, Operations Coordinator/Event Planner, GreenStone Farm Credit Services
