At a time when the world is facing new critical challenges, Dr. Covey’s MasterClass  Great Leadership in Critical Times offers the insights and practical guidance you can use now to lead your organization successfully through this challenging period.

Stephen R. Covey: I am truly pleased to have the opportunity to meet active people in Baltics – a region which has experienced rapid developments. As the world today faces crisis after crisis, I would like to encourage all entrepreneurs to look for solutions rather than focus on the problems. We cannot afford to see only the metastasizing cancers of cynicism, criticizing, complaining, etc. A leader has to strengthen the competitiveness of the enterprise, be distinct in performance, mission and values, and motivate and inspire the staff in order to achieve the defined targets and to become great. Be a leader focused on greatness! See you in Riga!

Here is what you will be able to do the very next day:
• Begin the day with a new mind-set to inspire trust in your organization – the trust among colleagues, leaders, direct reports that will enable you to achieve results faster and with lower costs than ever before.
• Apply a new skill-set of synergistic communication that will leverage your resources for higher performance throughout the organization
• Implement new tools within your organization that will tell you how well you are doing with your customers and how well your employees understand and support your objectives, mission, purpose and values.
• Recognize that the 3 steps to organizational success begin with personal greatness (find your own voice), moving to leadership greatness (help others to find their voice) and concluding with organizational greatness (institutionalized focus and execution.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience in person the impact of the world’s leading authority on effectiveness and leadership!
