Lessons In Leadership

Leadership Speakers for Hire - NO COST!
Energize Staff Meetings With World-Class Training




"To solve any problem, here are three questions to ask yourself:
First, what could I do?
Second, what could I read?
And third, who could I ask?"

- Jim Rohn

Professional sales and leadership training can be very expensive. In fact, the cost can be so high that most small business owners quickly discard the idea of introducing a high-caliber leadership speaker or trainer to their employees.

Rather than assume that the goal of providing world-class leadership training to your team is out of reach, you should instead keep reading to discover how the best small business owners and team leaders get creative to ensure their teams receive the best training available.

The fact is that you do not have to pay airline and lodging expenses, on top of a hefty speaking fee, in order to share the teachings of today’s most enlightened experts.

Whether a famous leadership speaker or trainer lived a century ago or is currently touring the country, your team can benefit from their teachings using resources that are free and easily accessible.

The secret is to identify how to successfully, and ethically, leverage the speaker’s material for the benefit of your employees.

CAUTION! Once you begin using these creative tactics for providing high-quality leadership presentations in your staff meetings, your team will have higher expectations of you for future gatherings.

Here are just a few quick ideas for free leadership training to get you started:

YouTube.com – Did you know that most successful speakers post videos of their various speeches online? Sometimes a video will contain a short but memorable piece of footage. Other times the video will contain a famous speaker’s entire speech!

Fortunately, anyone can watch these videos at no cost. Now imagine getting your staff together to watch one of the most famous motivational speakers on the planet… Zig Ziglar.

Take a moment now to watch Zig present an amazing life lesson.

Okay, now ask yourself if anyone on your team could benefit from this lesson? If the material can assist you in filling a leadership void on your team, then make good use of it!

Here are just a few additional gems from famous leadership speakers you might like to check out:

John Maxwell on 360 Degree Leadership
Jack Canfield on Perseverance
Les Brown on Circumstances

Yes, this is exciting! The choices available to you for accessing high-caliber leadership material, at literally no cost, is endless.

I encourage you to make regular use of these multi-media tools and resources in your weekly sales and service meetings. No doubt your employees will be highly impressed, and they will appreciate your efforts to invest in their professional education.

But hey, we aren’t done yet – let me introduce you to another leadership GOLDMINE!

Simple Truths - Check out this wonderful resource to view over 30 inspiring leadership videos.

I love this website! Each video can help a leader to emphasize a critical leadership lesson, or to initiate important discussion among team members. Perhaps you will even develop a quick team building exercise for your staff to complete after watching one of these short films.

Consider how your staff might respond when you begin the meeting by asking them to view this thought-provoking movie on - what else? Rock Solid Leadership!

Get creative! The ways in which leaders can identify and utilize quality leadership tools are limited only by your own imagination.

Now you realize that no matter where you reside, whether you live in a small rural town or far away in a small developing county, as long as you have access to a good Internet connection you have the ability to introduce your employees to the best leadership speakers and trainers in the world.

Start planning your next world-class staff meeting today!

"Success means doing the best we can with what we have.
Success is in the doing, not the getting;
In the trying, not the triumph.
Success is a personal standard,
Reaching for the highest that is in us,
Becoming all that we can be."

- Zig Ziglar

In my last newsletter I told you about an exciting opportunity I received to participate as a featured speaker for an upcoming one-hour global tele-class.

The slightly revised title of the presentation is:

10 Steps to Conquer Debt & Create New Income

Here is a detailed description of what I will be speaking about:

Get on the right path to conquering your debt. Give yourself the gift of living a debt free lifestyle. Learn how giving to others leads to greater rewards. Discover how thousands of ordinary hard working people are creating extraordinary online businesses in their spare time to create a brighter financial future.

Richard Gorham, author of 10 Steps to Conquer Debt and 10 Days to New Income, details how he teaches his readers to successfully pay off debt by following proven strategies of personal finance. In addition, learn how to pay off debt more quickly by creating long lasting streams of new income.

"Listeners will not hear any sort of "get rich quick" sales pitch during any of my presentations", Gorham says. "Being financially successful is not difficult if you follow a proven plan and commit yourself to providing tremendous value to your customers. The secret is to create a home-based business doing what you love to do in your spare hours."

Just getting by - is simply not good enough! In order to live life fully you must be in a financial position to take full advantage of opportunities as they arise. Taking back control of your financial circumstances is 100% achievable if you adopt a systematic process for eliminating debt and building wealth.

The date and time I will be speaking LIVE is April 27, 2010 at 9pm Eastern Time.

You can now sign up to attend this free teleclass - Register Here After clicking to register, our link is located toward the bottom of the page.

Mark your calender for 04/27/2010 and plan to attend the Live call.

Remember, you also have the ability to access multiple teleclasses from a wide variety of experts, all at no cost. Check out the above link for a complete class list.

If a certain subject jumps out, you may decide to have your entire team listen in. For example, I recently registered to attend a free tele-class about Health Coaching and Training. I think it might fit in nicely with the Leadership-Tools.com website so I'm excited to see what I can learn about this area that is growing in popularity.

There is no telling what tele-classes may peak your interest. The topics to choose from vary widely and change each and every month!

Tele-classes provide one more way you can introduce quality leadership tools and resources to your entire organization.

I really encourage you to check it out and let us know what you think!

"A good objective of leadership is
to help those who are doing poorly to do well
and to help those who are doing well to do even better."

- Jim Rohn
