Event Details
What do America’s top business leaders know that you don’t? From two decades working with leading CEO’s, Al Ritter has found that many of the important lessons in business and life are counter-intuitive. He will explain how these behaviors can be learned and effectively implemented, resulting in breakthrough results for the leader and his or her organization.
Through his interactive presentation, Al will show you practical ways that you too can makes these practices part of your business and personal life. You will leave the session with a commitment to new actions that will immediately help you achieve a new level of success and satisfaction.
Al is a leadership coach who works with leaders and teams committed to achieving breakthrough results in their own and their organization’s performance. Before starting his own firm, Al worked for Accenture, where he was recognized as that firm’s resident expert in leadership, team development, culture and large scale change. Earlier, he had a noteworthy corporate career, including senior vice president for Citigroup, chief financial officer for Swift & Company, and marketing and operations positions with PepsiCo.
Al is the author of the book Life is a Paradox, which demonstrates that the most important lessons in life, work and sports are often counter-intuitive—that is, they are not readily apparent and often conflict with our expectations. Al’s second book, The 100/0 Principle, was just published a few weeks ago.
Al holds an MBA from the Amos Tuck School of Dartmouth College, and played basketball and baseball for The University of Connecticut. He currently participates in triathlons.
