IN-PERSON | Meet the Author Series with Lauren Schieffer

Welcome to Central Exchange's Meet the Author Series! Join us as we hear from authors and engage in thoughtful conversation regarding their work.
 
The number one concern of leaders and managers today is how to attract and retain great employees. And yet for most people it seems to be a continuous, uphill effort. Battling the revolving door syndrome is exhausting!
 
What if you had a straightforward set of guidelines showing you how to attract, retain, and energize top-notch, loyal employees regardless of external economic or cultural conditions? In this clear and well-thought-out book, Lauren Schieffer, CSP (The Colonel’s Daughter) takes a departure from her wildly popular Colonels of Wisdom series to offer you a simple guide to doing just that. Highlighting Nine Essentials of Significant Leadership, Help Others Grow First gives you what you need to know and what you need to do if you want to attract and retain great employees in the humorous and engaging way that only The Colonel’s Daughter can.

 

Lauren Schieffer's passion is helping organizations build their next generation of leaders. Whether it’s training, keynotes or longer-term consulting partnerships, she uses Nine Essentials of Significant Leadership™ to help transform the way managers think, make decisions & act toward the people they lead. Organizations bring Lauren in because she brings a fresh new perspective, and a street-smart approach to what works and what doesn’t, helping speed transformation in three critical areas: knowledge, skills and relationships. As a result, your people will be more focused on what matters every day. They’ll lead with compassion and integrity, and they’ll create and model standards of excellence that others will aspire to and follow – all centered behind a common goal and vision. That’s what SIGNIFICANT leadership is.

Lauren is a Certified Speaking Professional through the NSA and The Global Speakers Federation. Able to relate to and energize everyone from the custodial staff to C-Level executives, Lauren is a master storyteller, delivering insightful, inspirational and relevant content that empowers people to absorb and act upon what they’ve heard – and she does so in an entertaining manner with a dry sense of humor that keeps them chuckling while they’re learning. Her enthusiasm is infectious and her passion unmistakable. Anyone can be successful. You want your people to be significant.
