Orem, Utah (PRWEB) May 2, 2009 -- On Blog Talk Radio on June 8, 2009, from 7:00 a.m. to 8 a.m. Pacific, Dr. Joseph Folkman, co-founder and president of Zenger Folkman, will share practical ideas and tips on how having an organization's vision clearly stated provides an established clear line of sight between an individual's work and where the organization is headed. This vision enables everybody to engage in day-to-day activities with a keen sense of direction and see how their work fits into the larger picture.
During the live radio show, moderator Tom Cox will discuss with Folkman why it is important that inspiring leader excel at creating vision and provide clear direction to the people around them. During the show, Folkman will emphasize that leaders should not create a vision for their team alone. Rather, Folkman will assert that leaders should create a vision that inspires employees in a collaborative process.
In "Who Cares About Vision," Folkman will discuss how providing a clear vision and direction is a tangible expression of a leader treating other people in the organization with dignity and respect. Here are some other areas that Folkman will discuss on the subject of vision:"The release of 'The Inspiring Leader' is timely because it identifies vision as a key element in leadership development that every organization can focus on without having to invest in a pricey development program," says Folkman. "Many visions are never realized; while leaders want to achieve a vision, they lack the ability or commitment to make this happen. Any new vision will require change, and change rarely occurs automatically because there is a new vision or by declaration. Change requires discipline to continue to make decisions and take actions that are consistent with a desired outcome."
