Today’s professional and personal responsibilities are likely some of the most demanding in history. We are working more hours, having less time with our family and friends and seem to live life at a pace that is often frantic and unfulfilling. Very few people seem to be able to make life work – and so live their life on the wide road of mediocrity.
Personnel and staff complain about most of their supervisors being ineffective and inconsistent, yet these same individuals are promoted and get accused of the same things by their subordinates. Most personnel in the law enforcement agencies seem frustrated and often finish their careers with little or no satisfaction. Most managers spend their careers showing little consistency in demonstrating leadership skills – in spite of attending more leadership training programs than their predecessors.
There is a better way – the narrow road of excellence. The focus of this program is to discuss what makes people fail to be effective, and what makes the small percentage fight this tendency towards mediocrity by making a difference in the workplace and their families. The primary focus of the program is to examine what makes some people “abnormal” in their ability to be effective in a workplace culture that seemingly is dominated by ineffectiveness.
