You're in the equipment business to make money.
That doesn't mean selling equipment is the only way to do it.
Right now, when your customers are out of work, you're out of work. That's part of the business model that's been broken for a long time, especially in this economy. During this one-day session you discover ways to create revenue even when your customers are not buying equipment, parts, or service, or renting. Rather than wait for the economy to improve, be the one to lead the improvement process for you and your customers.
Start Filling the Revenue Gap Now
In 2010, Northern California construction professionals took advantage of a new tool for improving themselves as leaders in their companies. Not knowing exactly what to expect, they attended a one-day event called Twelve O’Clock High. What they learned and took back to put into place in their day-to-day operations is an opportunity open to you as well. See who came and what they have to say about their experience.
Twelve O'Clock High is a world renown movie classic. It's also recognized as one of the most powerful business learning tools available. No other movie lands you so squarely in the middle of a management crisis then brings in the leadership genius to turn things around. As a tool for finding and solving daily issues that keep you from moving ahead faster, it is a virtual giant! As part of this one-day event, it accelerates pivotal shifts in the way you see yourself and your company and what you will do to create more results in less time, starting at 8:00 Monday morning.
In This or Any Economy. It's said the nation is in a period of economic recovery. The California construction industry, however, is still reeling from lack of long-term project funding, record-low bids, and profit margins that keep growth at a standstill. When things are this tight, organizational issues that may go unnoticed during good times can easily make or break your bottom line. Good leadership, in every position in your company, gets everyone on top of their game and keeps them there. It protects your business against whatever is coming next—from the economy, natural disaster, other outside forces—and starts moving more cash back into your bottom line.
Why Leadership Matters. When you develop your leadership know-how and effectiveness, you accelerate results during good times and eliminate the stress of scrambling to stay afloat when things take turns for the worse. You are strong, solid, and prepared to keep moving forward according to your agenda, no matter what is happening around you.
You learn more from the ideas and leadership and management tools you are exposed to during this innovative, one-day event than you get from any traditional seminar, training, or consultant.
This is critical right now because success in 2011 requires every leader to:
Have a clear vision—the “why” behind what you do every day
Personally create big results
Get the rest of your team doing the right things
Here's what you can expect from a day with Jim White:
Identify which management styles are currently at work in your organization
Discover which 5 leadership strategies can add 20% to your bottom line
Use the two most powerful ways to make decisions—and the outcomes of each
Adopt nine goal-setting criteria proven to drive your business forward in any economy
Communicate so the right things get done by the right people at the right time
Delegate in a way that frees you up to take care of the BIG picture
Ensure profit-driven productivity in each part of your company
Become expert at time-management strategies that give you back up to two hours a day
Master morale-building techniques that work—and immediately ditch those that don't
Develop structure, discipline, and accountability at every level of your enterprise

We’re all familiar with the power of a good movie ...
... You can watch a movie about a struggling football team and predict which player is most likely to score the game-winning touchdown and why.
... You can watch a movie about a troubled marriage and immediately see what's gone wrong and how to fix it.
... Movies bring reality into sharper focus to quickly give you a perspective on everyday issues you can't get anywhere else.
