Building Elite Teams - Forgotten Lessons from the Ranger Battalion
by Craig Vosper | at Minnebar20
Given the complexities of our future environments, leaders will not be able to respond to these complexities effectively. The future will rely on Elite teams able to take risks and make decisions quickly and in alignment with the organization's goals.
Many leaders believe they have a "talent" problem, but the truth is usually an "operating" problem. After a wake-up call in a downtown pizza place, Craig Vosper realized that the leadership principles he learned in the 2nd Ranger Battalion were the exact tools missing from his corporate strategy. He had become the bottleneck—and his team was waiting for him to lead, not manage.
In this high-impact session, Craig shares the framework for developing Elite Teams that are win, are proactive, adaptable, and have each other's backs. You will walk away with a tactical toolkit to: E - Empower your Team: Ensure the desire to win outweighs the fear of failure. L - Lead your people: Give them a clear path to winning. I - Inspire Greatness: Lead your team daily as Greatness isn't an event; it's a daily cadence. T - Team over heroes: Heroes can save the day, but teams win the war. E - Excellence as purpose: Make being excellent at what you do your purpose.
Leadership isn't a natural gift; it is a trained discipline. Whether you are an overwhelmed leader or one seeking to grow your organization, join Craig to learn how to build teams that win, even when you’re not in the room.
