-
- Self-Improvement
Who we are is how we lead. It’s not just about what we do in the world when it comes to leadership; it’s also about who we are. Take a minute to consider whether it is possible to divorce one's identity from the roles we play. I don't believe so.
You need to have a solid understanding of who you are as a person and how to use that knowledge to your advantage as a leader. You may assess your leadership strengths and weaknesses using this knowledge to become a more effective leader. Then, you can work to improve your weaknesses while enhancing your strengths.
A sought-after keynote speaker, facilitator, coach and author, Alain Hunkins helps leaders achieve performance goals, more easier.
His work connects the science of high performance with the performing art of leadership. Leaders trust him to help unlock their potential and expand their influence, leading to superior results, increased engagement, higher levels of retention, and greater organizational and personal satisfaction. He has a gift for translating complex concepts from psychology, neuroscience and organizational behavior into simple, practical tools that can be applied on the job.
With his Master’s in Fine Arts in Acting from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee’s Professional Theater Training Program, and a BA from Amherst College, Alain is on the faculty of Duke Corporate Education, ranked #2 worldwide in 2019 by Financial Times on its list of customized Executive Education programs. He also serves on the Academic Advisory Board for the New Delhi Institute of Management and has lectured at UNC Kenan-Flagler’s business school, Pepperdine Graduate School of Education and Psychology, UMass-Boston College of Management and Columbia University. Alain was invited to Den Helder, Netherlands to give a TEDx talk called "The Basic Truth Most Leaders Neglect.
