Dr. John Izzo
Author of the Five Secrets You Must Discover Before You Die, and named by Leadership Excellence Magazine as one of North America 's Top 100 Thought Leaders. Dr. John Izzo sees and feels the goodness many of us aspire to. As an author, community leader and inspiring speaker he has worked hard to talk about the essential elements of Leadership and the new frontier of that ever changing role. His interests are Development as it pertains to the individual as well at the company, Corporate Culture and the pursuit of creating places that support the individual as well as the corporate vision, and Personal Well-being in the fight to balance work and life. He works with leaders to create corporations and organizations where values and purpose are the foundations for success. Establishing these foundations helps leaders and organizations reach sustainable success through the integration of purposeful leadership and business practices.
Howard Putnam
Author of The Winds of Turbulence on leadership and ethics. Former CEO of Southwest Airlines. He inspires audiences to a greater vision and new insights. Southwest Airlines changed the way the game is played in the airline industry. They created a new model that focused on low costs, low fares and great customer service. The goal was to expand the size of the pie (market). They hired "attitudes" and developed skill sets. Tradition doesn't always work in any industry. Sometimes you have to flip your model upside down for a fresh look. You have to have a clear and concise vision if you want your organization to survive and thrive through turbulence. A clear understanding of what business or businesses you are really in is critical. Cultures can then be developed to support the vision and business. Bottom line improvement comes through your people. Howard Putnam will share with you how successful organizations get through the maze.
