Strategies for Managing Less and Accomplishing More

Seth Davies, Managing Partner  |  Competitive Solutions, Inc.

Strategies for Managing Less and Accomplishing More

All too often, companies become stagnant in their leadership processes and techniques and as a result, a wide gap is formed between employees and management. This gap results in an “us vs. them” mentality. In order to be effective, managers must learn the principles of “UnManagement.” This entails knowing how to develop processes that tie into key business objectives and learn to manage by using these processes, not personality. Managers will also develop an accountability process that will reinforce and drive business results. This session is designed to help leaders drive business objectives throughout their organization using the UnManagement principles and create a communication process to increase trust and improve morale. At the conclusion of this session, participants will be able to:
• Use the principles of UnManagement to build trust and communication in their organization
• Know how to develop, track, and implement key business objectives
• Know how to use processes, such as business scorecards and action registers, to drive accountability.
Seth has over 19 years experience in the consulting and training arena. Seth stresses organizations today must create and sustain a culture with three non-negotiable attributes. Those attributes include: a sense of urgency, a clear and concise business focus and leadership driven, shared accountability. At Competitive Solutions, Inc. he is a managing partner and senior consultant delivering business solutions to organizations. Organizations he has worked with include Pfizer, Goodwill Industries, Revlon, Genzyme, Manatee County Tax Collector, Michelin Tire, Genetech, National Institute Severely Handicapped (NISH)
