On St. Valentine's Day, Or Any Romantic Interlude, Woo Your Sweetheart With Chocolates, Roses ... AND A Leadership Talk
by Brent Filson
On Valentine's Day, or any romantic interlude, lovers should woo their sweethearts with chocolates and roses -- but also a Leadership Talk.
My experience in teaching the Leadership Talk to thousands of leaders worldwide for the past 21 years confirms that the Talk is a boon for leaders of all ranks and functions in their jobs and careers.
But I've also learned, to my surprise, that many leaders are employing the Leadership Talk effectively outside their jobs in their personal relationships.
Giving Leadership Talks helps leaders get a lot more results in organizations. Leaders see how much more effective as motivational tools Leadership Talks are than speeches and presentations.
Speeches and presentations communicate information. But Leadership Talks have you establish a deep, human, emotional connection with your audience.
That human connection is important in getting great results in your job; but it is also important in getting great results in your personal life -- even your love life.
If you want to win or sustain the fondness of a loved one, a Leadership Talk may just make it happen.
Mixing leadership and love may seem like mixing apples and oranges. But great leadership and love share common elements. For one thing, when you are wooing your lover, you may be taking the lead. And for another, using a Leadership Talk, you're fostering a deep, heartfelt relationship -- as great leadership often does.
Here are a few pointers on giving a Leadership Talk that you can put into effect this Valentine's Day or any other interlude for love. Before you speak, simply ask three questions: Do you know the needs of your lover? Can you bring deep belief to the relationship? And can you have your lover take action? If you say no' to any one of those questions, you can't give a Leadership Talk.
The questions apply to lovers as well. To foster a deep, human emotional relationship, you must know what your sweetheart needs, the deep belief you bring to the relationship, and finally, the action you want your sweetheart to take.
However, the questions are not meant to be stumbling blocks to your Leadership Talk but stepping stones. If you answer no', step back and assess your situation. Think through what you might say so that you can yes' to each question. Then speak. Give a Leadership Talk. And, by the way, don't forget the chocolates and roses.

Get Out Of The Communication Stone Age Give Leadership Talks
By Brent Filson
160 years ago, the newly invented electric telegraph carried the first news message. The message zipped 40 miles in a flash over wires from Baltimore to Washington, D.C.
The public was dazzled -- except Henry David Thoreau. He wrote: We are in great haste to construct a magnetic telegraph from Maine to Texas; but Maine and Texas, it may be, have nothing important to communicate.
Today, we live in a Golden Age of communication. We have the Internet. We have faxes....

Here s The REAL Reason Bush Won The Dark Night Of The Leadership Soul
by: Brent Filson
George Bush won the election because he was finally able to break out of the presidential bubble and give leadership talks on a consistent basis.
But to do it, he had to face the dark night of his leadership soul. And this is a lesson for ALL leaders.
The presidential bubble is that physical and psychological insulation that descends upon the president of the United States the moment he's sworn in.
Inside the bubble, people continually agree with him. Inside the...
Make The Elephant Jump Leading With A Kind Heart
by Brent Filson
Leadership is not about getting people to do what they want. If they did what they want, you wouldn't be needed as a leader. Instead, leadership is about getting people to do what they don't want to do (or don't think they can do) and be ardently committed to doing it.
This paradox lies at the heart of all great leadership.
Unlike management, which involves simply the care and feeding of your organizational elephant, great leadership gets that elephant to jump....
Leading By Persuading People They Don t Have To They GET TO
by Brent Filson
Physicists theorize that the universe is composed of only 20 percent visible matter and 80 percent dark matter. Dark matter refers to hypothetical matter particles, of unknown composition, that do not emit or reflect enough electromagnetic radiation to be detected directly, but whose presence can be inferred from gravitational effects on visible matter such as stars and galaxies.
When I read about dark matter, I thought about the organizations I've encountered in my...

A Whack Up Long Side The Head Of Human Resources The Leadership Imperative

When we perceive the simple center in the seemingly complex, we can change our world in powerful new ways.
Albert Einstein perceived the simple E=MC2 in the complexities of physical reality and changed the history of the 20th century.

Einstein The Universe and Leadership
by: Brent Filson
Every since serving a hitch in the military, I have been nagged by the question thats been hanging around leadership since time immemorial: How can some leaders persuade people to believe in them and follow them and other leaders cant? But it wasnt the military that provided me with a framework to answer that question. It was Albert Einstein and his quest for the unified field theory of the universe.
Einstein is well known for his special and general theories of...
Leadership Development and Jumping Out of Airships
by: Brent Filson
A German silent film melodrama depicts an airship bombing London during World War I. Lit up by searchlights and strafed by fighters, the crippled airship loses altitude as the captain frantically jettisons dispensable gear to lighten weight. Eventually, the only weight left is human. So the captain orders members of the crew overboard. A grisly scene unfolds as the airmen, one by one, without parachutes, step up to the hatch, salute the captain and the first mate, then...
