Randy Siegel - Building the People Who Build Organizations Randy Siegel

Even if you think you're an excellent communicator, chances are there's still room for improvement. Over the next couple of months, I will be sending you a series of short podcasts exploring an exciting concept I call, "communicating in the flow." Flow is that highly focused mental state that allows people to perform at peak levels. When we communicate in the flow, magic transpires. We form almost spiritual connections and find ourselves communicating in ways so insightful that we can surprise even ourselves.

Simply having a vision doesn’t make a visionary leader. A visionary leader must also be able to:

* Generate trust
* Be charismatic enough to cut through the clutter
* Not only motivate, but inspire people to greatness

Nationally-recognized leadership and communications trainer Randy Siegel of BuildYourLeaders.com shares these seven common characteristics of visionary leaders:

1. Authenticity
2. Direction
3. Passion
4. Connection
5. People-First Orientation
6. Certainty, Confidence, Conviction
7. Resiliency

In August of 2006, I led a 90-minute workshop on Communicating with Style to
close to two hundred association executives at ASAE and The Center for
Association Leadership's Annual Meeting and Exposition in Boston. Listen and
learn how to become a dynamic leader who makes rain, closes deals, motivates
employees, and is more positive and productive. By combining business sense
with communication expertise, I'll introduce you to four personality styles
and teach you how to adapt your own style to work better with others. From
managing, selling, and fund raising, to team building and boosting morale,
this model will help you succeed..
