Posted by Sandy Gluckman, Leadership Speaker in Dallas-Fort Worth-Arlington, TX on Oct 18, 2008

If you are looking for a top leadership motivational speaker to stir your C-level executives and other managers and supervisors  to self-discovery, Dr. Sandy Gluckman is a top leadership motivational speaker and worldwide consultant.  Born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa during the apartheid era, Dr. Gluckman has observed, experienced, and done extensive research on leadership traits.  By studying and comparing the styles of the world's worst apartheid leaders to the world's best business leaders, Gluckman has identified the 7 consistent traits of highly effective leaders. 

As a leadership motivational speaker, Gluckman uses storytelling and examples taken from proven and respected leaders like Nelson Mandela, Richard Branson, Herb Kelleher and Howard Shultz to guide her audiences to look within themselves in honing their leadership traits. The concept behind her groundbreaking book "Who's In The Driver's Seat" is that highly effective leaders learn to put their ego in the passenger's seat so that they can lead with spirit.  Spirited leaders possess the 7 traits of highly effective leaders that Dr. Sandy Gluckman helps executives, managers and supervisors cultivate through her leadership motivational speeches and extended consulting programs.  According to Gluckman, highly effective leaders have the following leadership traits in common:

  1. have humility
  2. are driven by vision
  3. are authentic
  4. are courageous
  5. build high performing business teams
  6. make profitable decisions
  7. see the funny side of life
Many business leaders are not aware that U.S. employee disengagement has reached unbelievable proportions.  According to the Gallup organization, more than half of all employees in the USA are not acting in ways that create business success.  They are switched off and tuned out. This equates to about 22 million disengaged employees, costing the American economy up to $350 billion a year. This is a dismal picture of employee participation, with major implications for productivity,  performance and corporate growth.  Gluckman believes that our economic recession is partially due to this disconnect between leaders and employees. 

  

In difficult economic times, it is imperative that companies keep their employee morale high, so leaders must hone their leadership traits to reconnect with these employees.  Leaders must take off their blinders and allow themselves to see employees, hear them and know them.
