6 Second Leadership Sound Bite
Leadership Skills
Contributor: John Ruppel
Reflecting on history, leadership is more important then ever and today's business's are scrambling to find good leaders. Each of us is a leader and we all bring to the table a unique leadership value. At my table we will construct your 6 second leadership sound bite so that when you are in an interview, having a conversation or are directly asked about your leadership style, you can respond instantaneously with a clean, clear concise communication about what type of leader you are, your leadership in action, and most importantly, your value proposition, the value your leadership brings to that organization. For those that have taken Londy's "Behavior Selling Class", this would be considered one of the the weapons to flip the switch or turn the dynamics onto your process, your terms. Look forward to working with you.
Demonstrate Dynamic Leadership in the Interview With a Plan
Interview Preparation
Contributor: Ted Case
This table session provides people in transition with a simple and flexible format for planning their personal 30, 60, 90 day goals in their new job. This simple plan is to be prepared in a very general way before your next interview. It is not a plan on paper to present to someone, but a plan in your head to impress your interviewer with your thinking.
This simple overview of your plan is intended to provide a dynamic way to communicate to the interviewer that you are a leader with a flexible and innovative mindset and a plan to go with it. This is especially useful when interviewing with companies that have some sort of an entrepreneur initiative or that are experiencing or want some sort of change.
