If you don’t know about General Assembly, you should. They started as an incubator for startups in New York, then found offering courses met a larger demand and transformed into an educational institution and community, now all over the country, Europe, and Asia. Very exciting, dynamic, entrepreneurial, and building community.

They’ve invited me to speak on leadership next Thursday in Manhattan, 6:30-8pm.

Below is the announcement of the event. I look forward to seeing you there.

TAKEAWAYS

People remember effective leaders their whole lives. If you had leaders and teachers who motivated you from the inside, you probably still remember them today and you wish you could thank them for inspiring such drive and fulfillment in your life.

You can learn to lead and inspire like them… to motivate people from the inside to contribute fully and completely and feel gratitude to you for motivating them … to want you to lead them again.

This workshop teaches you how.

We’ll cover: Step-by-step low-level instruction of what to say and do — How to create high-level meaning, value, importance, purpose, and passion — How and why the words and behaviors you learn inspire those high-level concepts — Exercises to perfect your practice — Overcoming counterproductive practices like relying on authority or external motivations that corporate, highly-structured or command-and-control environments often teach.

Prereqs & Preparation

This event is invite-only and reserved for entrepreneurs within our community.
