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. ============================ 2005 © The
