What challenges are you and your organization facing right now?
No, don’t put this off. Take a few minutes and write down at least three challenges that you know are looming on the horizon.
3. Now, imagine you could
have one single solution that
would not only eliminate the
challenges, but also raise
profits in the process.

Okay, let me explain a
couple of things. Often, an
organization thinks that what
they need is a better “strategy”
to tackle the challenges.
5. Sometimes that new strategy works (at
least for a while), but these strategies
rarely, if ever, deal with real issue.
You may have inadvertently made the
problems even stronger than
they were before.

6. Today there are at least five
mayor challenges facing leaders.
If we don’t face them, they
could (and will) wipe out many
previously solid companies.

7. 1.
Engagement. The American Workforce
is in crisis with more than 70% of workers
stating that they are disengaged.

2.
Loyalty! On average it costs 1.5-2 times
the annual salary of an individual to train
and develop them. If they leave before
that time you have a negative ROI.

3.
Succession. Family-based business account
for 64% of U.S. gross domestic product. More
and more we are seeing that the up and coming
generation look at business and leadership with
very different values than their parents, and are
often willing to walk away from an organization
that doesn’t match their values.

4.
The demand for transparency. Old school
leadership was all about keeping things
close to the vest. In a social media world,
secrets are not only hard to keep but they
could destroy your business when—not if—
they come out.

5.
Technology. In a world where
technology is going to continue to
disrupt just about every industry,
knowing which technology to take on
or ignore is vital.
