Jim’s Disruptive Innovation Teaser:
We asked Jim:
What are you like on stage during your presentations?
I’ve been described as fun, engaging, challenging and provocative by clients in the past. With smaller groups, I like creating exercises where I pair up audience members and have them apply the principles I’ve talked about to their particular industry. This allows people to come away with practical solutions for the challenges being faced by their particular organization or industry.
What makes you unique?
I come with a principle-centered leadership philosophy. This comes in part from my earlier experience teaching Dr. Stephen Covey’s work The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People to Canadian Audiences. I look at principles that can be applied to organizations, while at the same time adjusting the systems and structures in order to avoid being blindsided by disruption.
What Audiences Are Saying:
“Jim’s session was one of the most highly rated and I am certain that we will work with him in the future. What was particularly noteworthy was the accessibility and relevance of his material. Jim’s friendly, open style is critical in encouraging participants to take the material on board and shift their thinking.”
