Lencioni\u2019s passion for organizations and teams is reflected in his writing, speaking and executive consulting. Pat is the author of ten best-selling books with nearly four million copies sold. After twelve years in print, his book The Five Dysfunctions of a Team continues to be a fixture on national best-seller lists. His latest book, The Advantage: Why Organization Health Trumps Everything Else in Business, became an instant bestseller.<\/strong><\/p>\n The wide-spread appeal of Lencioni\u2019s leadership models have yielded a diverse base of speaking and consulting clients, including a mix of Fortune 500 companies, professional sports organizations, the military, non- profits, schools and churches.<\/p>\n Patrick Lencioni addresses thousands of leaders each year at world class organizations and national conferences. Consistently the top rated keynote speaker at major events, Pat shares his insights and inspires his audiences through his accessibility, humor and storytelling.<\/p>\n Named in Fortune as one of the \u2018ten new gurus you should know,\u2019 Patrick and his work have been featured in USA TODAY, The Wall Street Journal, Inc., and Harvard Business Review, to name a few.<\/p>\n Prior to founding his firm, he worked as a corporate executive for Sybase, Oracle and Bain & Company. Patrick lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and four sons.<\/p>\n The Untapped Advantage of Organizational Health<\/p>\n Addressing the model in his latest book, The Advantage, Patrick makes the overwhelming case that organizational health “will surpass all other disciplines in business as the greatest opportunity for improvement and competitive advantage.” While too many leaders are still limiting their search for advantage to conventional and largely exhausted areas like marketing, strategy and technology, Pat claims there is an untapped gold mine sitting right beneath them. Instead of trying to become smarter, he asserts that leaders and organizations need to shift their focus to becoming healthier, allowing them to tap into the more-than-sufficient intelligence and expertise they already have.<\/p>\n He defines a healthy organization as one with minimal politics and confusion, high degrees of morale and productivity, and low turnover among good people. Drawing on Patrick\u2019s experience consulting to some of the world\u2019s leading teams and reaffirming many of the themes cultivated in his other best-sellers, Patrick will reveal the four steps to achieving long-term success.<\/p>\n According to Patrick Lencioni, teamwork remains the ultimate competitive advantage, both because it is so powerful and so rare. He makes the point that if you could get all the people in an organization rowing in the same direction, you could dominate any industry, in any market, against any competition, at any time. Based on his runaway best-seller, The Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Pat uncovers the natural human tendencies that derail teams and lead to politics and confusion in so many organizations. Audience members will walk away with specific advice and practical tools for overcoming the dysfunctions and making their teams more functional and cohesive.<\/p>\n In this talk, Patrick addresses perhaps the most timeless and elusive topic related to work: job misery. Based on his book, The Three Signs of a Miserable Job, Pat delivers a message that is as revolutionary as it is shockingly simple. He dismantles the root causes of frustration and anguish at work: anonymity, irrelevance and immeasurement. In doing so, he provides managers at all levels with actionable advice about how they can bring fulfillment and meaning to any job in any industry. Whether you\u2019re an executive looking to establish a sustainable competitive advantage around culture, a manager trying to engage and retain your people, or an employee who has almost given up on finding fulfillment in your work, this talk will prove immediately invaluable.<\/p>\n Based on the principles in Getting Naked, Patrick presents a counterintuitive approach to client service that yields uncommon levels of trust and loyalty. \u2018Naked Service,\u2019 as Patrick calls it, provokes consultants and service providers to be completely transparent and vulnerable with clients and to avoid the three fears that ultimately sabotage client allegiance. Learn principles like \u2018enter the danger,\u2019 \u2018tell the kind truth,\u2019 and \u2018always consult instead of sell.\u2019 Whether you are an internal or external consultant, financial advisor or anyone else serving long-term clients\u2014you will glean some powerful tools for overcoming the three fears, and establishing a fiercely loyal client base.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Patrick Lencioni – Getting Naked!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":42590,"menu_order":0,"template":"","tags":[],"speaker-category":[16604,16593,16591,16600],"speaker-topic":[16623,16644],"speaker-type":[16667],"speaker-gender":[16670],"speaker-language":[16572],"class_list":["post-51244","speaker","type-speaker","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","speaker-category-entrepreneurship","speaker-category-globalisation","speaker-category-leadership","speaker-category-teambuilding-teamwork","speaker-topic-leadership-4-0","speaker-topic-motivation-strategy","speaker-type-keynote-speaker","speaker-gender-men","speaker-language-english"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nPatrick\u2019s Topics:<\/h2>\n
