From Buy-In to Breakthrough:
How Leaders Build Influence and Generate Results

buy-in-advantage

When talented employees leave despite raises, meetings run long, strategies fade quickly, or leaders feel they’re carrying the load alone—these aren’t people or execution problems. They’re symptoms of a systemic buy-in crisis affecting our organizations, communities, and personal lives.
 

Join Dave Garrison for this interactive Zoom session to learn proven, no-cost leadership techniques that turn reluctant teams into proactive performers who deliver results and innovation. Drawing on insights from hundreds of leaders, Dave will address:
 

  • What’s really causing the buy-in crisis
  • If strategy and money aren’t the drivers, what actually works
  • Three tools you can use immediately to create sustainable buy-in at scale
  • How these ideas apply to both business and personal or family life

Following the 45-minute session, Dave will open the floor for questions and takeaways.
