Leadership Workshop - Kirk Weisler
At first when I heard that I had to attend a five hour leadership workshop on a Monday night I was not too excited. With in the first ten minutes of the keynote speaker's presentation,however, I was hooked. The presenter that night was Kirk Weisler, who is a professional speaker on leadership. He was very energetic and passionate about what he was talking to us about. His speech talked about three main themes that should be in the workplace: love, growth, and respect. The main point that stayed with me from his speech was the fact that most high performers spend more time working on their strengths instead of their weaknesses. Then I also learned as a leader you need to be positively contagious and to never stop teaching and growing. In order for us to grow as leaders, Kirk gave us some titles to read. The book that I have just started reading is QBQ: The Question Behind the Question. It was a long evening, but I can't believe all that I learned that night. Thanks Kirk Weisler!
