Our speaker is Mr. Mark McCatty, Leadership and Team Advisor with Mark McCatty, Inc., a Tampa Bay area consulting firm specializing in leadership results through people.  He will be speaking on the topic of "Supply Chain Leadership that Gets Results". This ia a presentation on effective leader styles, and how to behave in a way that encoureage positive influence.

Leaders are judged by the results they get. But what does a leader do when they don't get the results they want?

"I want to be a better motivator" is a frequently stated desire heard from supervisors and managers of all levels. The truth is that these leaders are already powerful motivators for their staff. They are just motivating the staff in the wrong direction - to work against them. Understanding that everyone is already motivated is information that is important for leaders to hold. When a leader accepts this priniciple it becomes easier to lead in a way that influences positive motivations.

In this presentation we will discuss the key leadership behaviors that will result in effective leadership. And we'll review the drastic consequences of the ineffective leader behaviors that frequently occur. We'll look at several actions leaders can take to improve engagement levels within the work environment.
