With this information, you can confidently select the right tool to generate a return on your company’s time and money. Confident ROi illustrates the concepts outlined in my book, Transform Your Company. Each issue will have articles focusing on core alignment tools and bolt-on tools as well as an article focused on the real-starting-line (i.e., between the leader’s ears). The first issue kicks off with a real-starting-line article on how the Brain-Based Leadership Certificate course empowers leaders to unleash the supercomputers in their heads and how to override the factory settings that might be holding you and your company back. The core-alignment-tool spotlight is on EOS/Traction and what a CEO learned implementing it in her own company and now as a certified EOS implementer for other companies. There are bolt-on tool articles from Verne Harnish (author of Mastering the Rockefeller Habits and Scaling Up) on strategy and Bradford Smart, PhD (author of Topgrading) about an inexpensive and powerful tool to identify the real career progression of a candidate before interviewing them so you don’t waste time interviewing someone with a misleading resume. If there are business tools you want Confident ROi to cover in future issues, or you want help finding the right place to start advancing your company, contact me at [email protected] or 949.478.0042. Welcome to Confident ROi. It will empower you to advance your company whether you own it, lead it, or work in it. DISCOVER THE RIGHT TOOL TO IMPROVE YOUR COMPANY PUBLISHER Carle Publishing Inc.
