Marcus Buckingham
Best-Selling Author & Expert on Outstanding Leadership and Management Practices
Continuing the Perspectives tradition of finding the best speakers for
our conference attendees, this year is no exception. Perspectives
2008 welcomes Marcus Buckingham, speaker, author and expert in
leadership and management practices.
Recently featured on Oprah, Buckingham challenged years of
social theory and utilized his nearly two decades of research experience as a senior researcher at the Gallup Organization to breakthrough preconceptions about achievements and get to the core of what drives success.
Buckingham gives important insights to maximizing strengths, understanding the crucial differences between leadership and management, and fulfilling the quest for long-lasting personal success. Covered in his four best-selling books, companies that focus on cultivating employees’ strengths rather than simply improving their weaknesses stand to dramatically increase efficiency while allowing for maximum personal growth and success. A wonderful resource for leaders, managers and educators, Buckingham challenges conventional wisdom and shows the link between engaged employees and productivity, profit, customer satisfaction, and the rate of turnover.
Get ready to be engaged in every word, while learning the tricks to optimize your employees and create better management systems. Marcus addresses more than 250,000 thousand people globally each year. An absolute must attend!
