LEADERSHIP LESSONS FROM NAPOLEON BONAPARTE
Are you and your team preparing for the economic upturn?
We don't know when, but we do know it will happen. Will you be ready for it? There is no doubt that right now is the time to make sure that your business is in the best possible shape.
So, you need to pay particular attention to the quality of your team's leadership.
Chris Gibbons uses the career of one of history's great leaders; Napoleon Bonaparte, to create a framework that you can use to guide and shape your own career and the careers of those around you.
What makes him such a fascinating case study is that Napoleon was not only a military genius and legislator of note, but he was also a deeply-flawed individual, prone to favouritism, erratic judgement and excess. In that respect he is much closer to the flawed titans of today's Wall Street - and also to you and me!
In a fully illustrated 60-minute presentation, Chris examines the leadership qualities that allowed Napoleon to gain the throne of France and the adoration of many millions of his countrymen. He also runs a magnifying glass over the mistakes that led Napoleon to lonely exile and death on St. Helena.
You and your team will be left with a full understanding of the dynamics of great leadership - and the pitfalls that accompany it!
When the economic recovery comes, Chris Gibbons - and General Bonaparte - will ensure that you and your leaders are poised for victory!
