What do big and small companies have in common? Every big company began as a small one. Why do small companies suffer from some of the same problems that plague big companies? Early successes that helped company growth have morphed into bigger challenges many company leaders are ill-prepared to tackle.
How does the quality of leadership affect organizational performance? How do you know you are doing the things that will help you succeed and your business grow? Nearly 70% of all businesses suffer from decisions and actions that will eventually derail them, including being over-managed and under-led. How can you prevent derailment by being better prepared as a leader? Over 100 documented definitions of leadership exist, but this phenomenon and practice is poorly understood and poorly practiced. All one needs to do is look at recent leadership failures within Wall Street, state and federal government, and big business that have had ripple effects on small businesses throughout the Nation.
The Batavia Chamber is embarking on a new direction to help leaders grow their businesses within and outside of Batavia. We know the current economy has caused belt-tightening and close scrutiny of every expense, but we also know business growth can only occur with the right investments of time, talent, and energy. For these reasons, we are giving you an opportunity to test a valuable investment opportunity before committing your future time and energy.
On Friday, September 17, 2010, Dr. Ray Benedetto will present a 90-minute Leadership Primer for business leaders of all levels and all company types. Why leadership and why now? Dr. Ray will help us understand the foundation of organizational success as told through the stories of high-performing, successful small companies with whom he is working.
