Jim Ruprecht, Founder and CEO of Windward Leadership, provides an enlightening and engaging overview of field-tested lessons for leading durable change in today's political, neurotic, time-starved, and resource-poor organizations.
Jim's career has been one of leading increasingly challenging transformations: creating new organizations, renovating under-performing ones, and invigorating ones that have been neglected. He shares his own experience and lessons learned applying the counsel of leading experts in the areas of leadership and organizational dynamics. Weaving together helpful analogies, metaphors, and good sense, Jim is able to explain complex topics in everyday language, and moves quickly from a theoretical context to the pragmatic issues involved in putting principle-centered leadership and team-oriented management into operational practice. Able to communicate naturally with people at all ranks, Jim does so in a clear and distinctive voice--one that is sometimes provocative, occasionally irreverent, but always avoiding that safe, sophisticated, academic language that is so prevalent today, and is used more often to camouflage meaning than reveal it.
Speaking engagements are available in 1, 2, half-day, and full-day formats.
