Barry’s Leadership and Management Speaking Topics
Building a Team that Lasts and Lasts
One of the most difficult elements of growing a business is hiring and the right team members. That is why it is critical to be slow to hire and quick to fire. Unfortunately, not many business owners follow this advice. Instead, they hire the first person that reasonably fits the role before they’ve learned a lot about them. Then, if the employee doesn’t work out, they hesitate to fire them. Barry shows how to stop the employee merry-go-round and effectively hire, train, manage and fire people to provide the maximum leverage for every business.
How to Hire and Retain Millennials in Your Company
Many small business owners struggle with hiring the new millennial. If they are successful, they then need to figure how to retain them. Barry explains what millennials really want and how to leverage their expertise in your company.
How to Learn to Delegate and Truly Leverage Your Team for Success
For managers, it seems they are always running out of time while their staff is running out of the office. Why are managers always more busy than the people that work for them? It is because they do not know how to delegate. Unfortunately, they believe it is far easier to do it themselves than train their staff. Using the classic Harvard Business School case study, “Who Has the Monkey?”, Barry shows managers how they can learn to delegate to their staff and leverage their time to grow their company.
