In Atlanta and beyond
Based in Atlanta, which makes local events straightforward to support. Travel for events elsewhere can be discussed as part of an inquiry.
Topics
Available talk concepts
Three topic concepts drawn from the book and method, each tailored to the audience and event.
Why Is This On My Desk?
The talk behind the book. Why capable leaders become bottlenecks, how delegation quietly breaks, and how giving every decision a single owner frees the leader and the team.
Build Beyond You
Drawing on the Built Beyond You™ Enterprise Independence™ system: what it takes to build a team and organization that can perform, decide and grow without depending on one person.
Decisions Under Pressure
When stakes rise, decision rights collapse back to the top. Practical ways to stay clear in your thinking, protect ownership and keep momentum when it matters most.
