Leadership at 12 O’clock High Training Seminar:

Leadership can be a difficult topic to fully grasp in a meeting environment. This highly interactive, “Showing rather than telling” workshop explores leadership in a unique way. This workshop doesn’t just describe adaptive leadership, it shows it in action. Participants get to see how effective leaders  adjust their style of action ands communication to suit the situation.

• When the economy is strong unemployment is usually low and wages are high making it a challenge to hire staff. In a recession, usually unemployment rises and you can hire some very talented employees for less money. This is a great time to strengthen the team. It may also be a great time to do a little natural pruning and release your “C” employees or the weak performers.

• Competition that is financially weak will be cutting costs, especially in the areas of marketing where they should not. This is the time to step up your marketing efforts. This means that the strong will survive and the weak will not, opening up additional market share.

• You really need to focus on what your strengths are and what makes you different from you competitors. If you are a low price company, then find ways to reduce you’re pricing even more. If you are a customer service company, then find new ways to deliver great customer service.

What customers say:

Thousands of racing enthusiasts were in attendance for Speedway Expo 2008.This event was the major kickoff event for the 2008 racing season and was held from February 29-March 2, 2008. As part of the educational seminars Joseph Clouatre participated in a panel discussion on the relationships between sponsors and race teams. This panel was a who’s who in sports marketing and the speakers enjoyed a packed house with standing room only. This was a unique opportunity for Joe to share his thoughts having been a sponsor, driver and owner.

Joe also conducted another seminar that focused on “Team Building on Race Teams”. This well received programmed highlighted the importance of having strength in every position on the team, cooperation between team members and having fun! There were teams from as far away as California in attendance. Several of the attendees stayed after the seminar and Joe conducted an informal round table discussion fueled by a steady stream of questions. For many years Joe has created very successful teams within his businesses and many of the same principals were easily applied to the world of auto racing.
