I've known Brent for
several years and admire his books, articles and speeches on
leadership. Brent brings many years of experience in
leadership development at GE where he worked with Jack Welch
and at many other companies and organizations. Brent focuses
on one of the most fundamental and powerful aspects of
leadership: the leadership talk. This is not a speech. It is
a way of communicating effectively and consistently your
major ideas in all types of settings to produce the results
you desire.
You will leave this seminar prepared to develop and use your
leadership talk.
Brent publishes a monthly e-zine, "Brent Filson's Action
Leadership Report." I have forwarded copies of this to you
several times in the past. You can access the past and
present issues at
www.actionleadership.com/ezine. I recommend them.
I will provide copies of
two of Brent's books to you at the seminar: The
Leadership Talk: The Greatest Leadership Tool, and, 101 Ways
to Give Great Leadership Talks.
Please confirm your plans to attend this All Member
Seminar.
Brent first learned about leadership as a Marine Corps rifle
platoon commander 23 years ago. Today, he is the founder and
president of The Filson Leadership Group, Inc., which helps
businesses, governments and non-profit organizations
worldwide generate and achieve "more results faster,
continually" through the methodologies he developed while
working as a speechwriter, trainer and consultant.
He has helped thousands of
leaders and scores of organizations including Abbott;
Ameritech; Anheuser-Busch; AT&T; Bell Atlantic; BellSouth;
Bristol-Meyers Squibb; DuPont; Ford; General Electric;
General Motors; GTE; Hershey Foods; Houghton Mifflin; IBM,
Merck; Miller Brewing Company; Price Waterhouse; Sears
Roebuck; Spalding International; Unilever; UPS; Union
Carbide; U.S. Steel; Warner Lambert; and more.
He has also lectured at
Columbia University, MIT's Sloan School Of Business, Boston
College, Wake Forest University, Williams College and
Villanova among others.
A graduate of Wake Forest,
Brent is the author of 23 books and more than 100 articles
on leadership. His Executive Speeches: 51 CEOs Tell You How
to Do Yours has been called "a classic" by "Public Relations
Journal". His latest book, The Leadership Talk: The
Great Leadership Tool, is a finalist in the careers
category of a national book award.
