THE CONNECTION: THE PLAYBOOK FOR BUSINESS OWNERS & EXECUTIVES: LEARN HOW TO MAKE ALL OF YOUR CONNECTIONS COUNT + THE ONES YOU HAVEN'T CONNECTED TO YET
Do you need new ways to build trust, delegate and improve accountability so your top performers are inspired to become even better and don't end up feeling like workaholics on the verge of burnout?
If so, then I know exactly how you feel.
If you're like most business owners and executives, maybe sometimes even you feel like the workaholic on the verge of burnout, let alone your top performers.
You probably started off your career full of drive and excitement, and made good progress on your goals for a while, but then - life gets busy, you get distracted.
Somewhere along the way, you forget how to connect with the confidence that helps you to make powerful, long-term decisions about your professional future.
And to make matters worse, it seems like it's only getting more and more difficult to connect with your own success and sense of purpose while still creating success with and for those around you.
You end up feeling unappreciated and undervalued.
Sometimes you can even end up feeling resentful and frustrated because even though you're "successful", you're still feeling some uncertainty about how to make the most of where you are and nothing you do seems to get you and your team to that next level.
Until now the only way to address this situation was to play it safe, hoping the storm passed long enough for you to get buy in from enough people to accomplish something that at least resembled a meaningful long-term result.
The problem with this option is that it's old, inefficient and costing you and your organization MUCH more than you may even realize.
It doesn't provide you with new ways to build trust, delegate and improve accountability so your top performers are inspired to become even better and don't end up feeling like workaholics on the verge of burnout.
That's why today, I'm delighted to share with you my brand new book called "The Connection: The Playbook For Business Owners & Executives", so you can learn how to make all of your connections count.
I know that may sound unbelievable, but in a moment you'll see how it all connects, so keep reading.
My name is Shelley Smith and for the last 27 years, I've helped numerous business owners and executives connect the right people to the right projects so your organization as a whole, develops the confidence and clarity to win consistently without losing sight of the bottom line.
And what I've learned over several decades in top executive positions within Marriott Corporation, LTD Hospitality Group, HMP Properties, Virginia Tech Cooperative Leadership Institute as well as family owned and operated businesses, is that once you truly understand the importance of connecting, only then can you and your team finally break through.
The Connection is literally the difference between practicing arguments in your head to justify mediocrity and TRULY living what you value at work and at home. And when you apply it in your life, you'll experience the alignment of your greatest strengths toward the reality you want to experience now.
While there are other books that talk about connecting with events and people and the importance of it, what makes The Connection stand out is that you'll not only discover the "why" of connecting, but practical insights on "how" to do it so you'll be able to better connect with the opportunities that exist in your world today!
The Connection is a Playbook that will teach you how to connect more deeply by examining the faulty assumptions that keep you and your organization stuck so you can finally articulate a vision so inspiring, worthwhile and meaningful that your team will smash through wall
