From: Hugh Ballou, The Transformational Leaderhship Strategist

Dear CEO, President, Manager, HR Director or Leader:

Death has a not-so-funny way of shaking us back to reality. I know you’re trying to cut your overhead, axe dead weight, and train people on a shoe string but there’s something you should know before you waste another precious minute. Whether your business, church or organization is striving or barely surviving, I think you’ll find my life and death business story relevant to any business in today’s economy.

Worked Himself to Death
I wasn’t surprised at how dysfunctional the organization I was working for really was. Yet, I was amazed at how well it had done in spite of its lack of systems, procedures or effective leadership. It was obvious that the charismatic leader of this 12,000 member organization worked very hard and was totally dedicated to keeping things under his control… maybe a bit too much control. He held on so tight to his perceived leadership role that one day it literally killed him. For privacy sake, let’s just call him Phil.

Icebergs on the Horizon
When this dynamic leader suffered a heart attack and passed away, the organization that depended on him nearly went with him. When Phil died, his unique knowledge, extensive relationships, and the organization’s only stated leadership disappeared overnight. The ship suddenly had no captain and there were icebergs on the horizon.

The Definitive Leader

Ignoring the Obvious
By ignoring his organization’s need for various types and levels of leadership, Phil not only hurt the organization in the short run, he almost destroyed it for the long run. This might seem like an extreme example but believe me it’s not. I see it far too often. Whether someone at the top dies, gets fired, retires, transfers or just fails to perform, the entire organization and its customers or members suffer. Isn’t this the kind of misery you would like your organization to avoid?

Here are some of the miserable things most of us want to avoid.
See if you agree:

  Firing loyal people because we’re cash poor
  Laying off good people because sales are down
  Cutting overhead to the bone since revenue is off
  Changing our core business because nothing’s selling
  Severing important business relationships just to save money
  Screwing vendors just to survive
  Lowering prices to keep customers
  Scratching training programs when we need them most
  Nixing the marketing budget
  Liquidating assets we know we shouldn’t
  Forgetting customer service – at least for now
  Letting the crisis mode become our survival mode

All of the above are things that can be difficult to avoid without effective leadership. Organizations that are unwilling to allow others to lead, limit success for everyone. That includes their employees, customers and shareholders. This is why I do what I do. I have discovered a better way. Whether your business is booming or doom and glooming I will share with you, for just $1.00, one of my most popular books, Building High Performance Teams.

The Good, the Bad and the Downright Stupid
Having experienced, the good, the bad, and the impact of downright stupid leaders, I have committed my career to teaching organizations how to transform themselves with the leverage of Definitive Leadership. This is a tested and proven model that can be learned by most anyone with the right level of commitment and a desire for personal and professional growth.

Since you just landed on this page you have already received for FREE, No Charge, my first five lessons on leadership. But there is much more coming your way. Stick with me here!

The Definitive Leader

Definitive Leadership Helps Create:
  Highly effective teams
  Clear goals
  Focused efforts
  Effective use of resources
  Efficient use of time
  Strategic thinking from strategic thinkers
  Less hard work and more smart work
  Higher standards throughout the organization
  Elimination of duplicated efforts
  Minimizing unutilized staff hours
  Increasing synergy between teams
  Reduced waste at all levels

More responsive and less reactionary environments

A sense of ownership by key people

Helping the Stuck get Unstuck
In my 40-plus years of working in a variety of for-profit and nonprofits organizations I have experienced effective, ineffective, and even defective leadership first hand. I have studied these organizations for years and I know without a doubt that no organization reaches its full potential until it unleashes its leadership potential. Are you ready to have your organization live up to its full potential?

The Definitive Leader

Don’t Know What Tomorrow Will Bring? Then Don’t Wait
I hope you said yes because I’m making this unbelievably easy. I’ve been in your shoes. I have lead thousands of people over the years and managed multi-million dollar budgets so I know the pressure you are under. But remember this. I am passionate about helping organizations transform themselves from what they were to what they dream of being. And the single most powerful tool that any company or organization has to achieve their dreams is not just any leadership but what I call, Definitive Leadership. In today’s hyper-paced world there is no time to hesitate. The stakes are high and we never know what tomorrow might bring. I respectfully say, “Just ask Phil.”

“If you don’t know where to turn are you willing to at least try
something that is proven, free, and 100% guaranteed to work?”

I Don’t Want Your Dollar bill
Obviously I’m not making money by giving you your first five lessons for free and your additional trial period for a buck. What I want more than anything from you is your commitment… to yourself and the organization you serve.
Commit to building a constantly improving and sustainable business model based on the proven principles of Definitive Leadership. I will not waste a minute of your time or a single penny of yours on hype.

For just $1.00 I am offering you the opportunity to experience a new leadership model that can either save your business from economic challenges or expand your business rapidly without breaking the bank.

Let’s get Back to Phil for a Moment
When Phil had his heart attack and left his organization in shambles, there was a lot he didn’t know. He thought he knew a lot more than he did but one thing was very clear was that he didn’t know what he didn’t know. But you do. Let’s look at what you DO know:

  Leadership skills aren’t instilled at birth, someone has to teach them
  The best training is the one that actually gets started
  Managers love training they don’t have to babysit
  Training that’s simple and convenient is easy to commit to
  Bite-sized training integrates better than weekend workshops
  Try it before you buy it training is risk free
  Leadership skills cross all industries – you’re special but not that special :)
  Training with satisfaction guaranteed is easy to say yes to

Who is Hugh Ballou?
My first love has always been music and that is why I have become proficient at my craft of conducting. Although you might wonder how my skills at leading an orchestra translate to leading your organization, let me assure you, they do.

I worked for 40 years as musical conductor under a wide variety of circumstances with a great variety of leaders - some good, some not so good. I learned a great amount about leadership from some of the best leaders in the world! I have failed plenty and succeed more - and you will benefit from my experience! These are "proven-in–the-trenches" strategies with practical and tactical skills you can put to use immediately.

As in any organization, I know that from the front of the stage the finished product depends on the skills and talents of each individual contribution. If there is not leadership to facilitate that harmonious event, things begin to sound sour quickly. So, whether you sell violins or Volvos, pianos or pizzas, Definitive Leadership can make or break you.

The Definitive Leader

The Myth of Natural Born Leaders
While one person may have some natural or instinctive leadership qualities nobody has natural leadership skills. There is no such thing as natural leadership skills. You have to learn to be an effective leader. And, you can learn leadership through your own mistakes or through others. Either way you learn but the latter is much faster. I’ve analyzed the mistakes and learning’s of thousands so you don’t have to repeat them.

“The reality is, you don’t have enough time to make all the mistakes yourself so
why not learn from somebody else’s?”

Extraordinary Transformation can only occur with effective leadership. And with Effective Leadership you can create Extraordinary Results.
