Speaking Topics
Making Difficult Decisions in a Time of Change
At critical moments, leaders too often make poor decisions. They don’t manage the process or themselves to make the best choices for the organization they lead.
Drawing on key takeaways from his best-selling book, Create the Future, Rick gives his leadership audiences the principles and best practices for making better choices for their organizations and themselves. He gives them examples of how to do it right and a practical step-by-step process they can use with their leadership team.
Make Your Board of Directors into a Value Accelerator
Rick writes and speaks widely on how to make your company’s board of directors into a valuable asset. Too often, the board is rubber-stamping the CEO’s initiatives, or the CEO does not see value in engaging with the board to help make the company more successful.
Rick talks about how the board of directors can make the company more successful and offers practical steps for company leaders and board members to turn the board into a value accelerator for the company.
