Presentation:
Avoiding Ugly Leadership: Lessons from Holiday Sweaters
It’s December and that means one thing: ugly holiday sweaters. Some are too busy, some are off topic, some are confused, and some don’t have a real reason to exist. The same can be said about leaders. In this humorous and interactive presentation, we will discuss how leaders can start with good intentions and end up with something not quite as pretty as they thought it would be. We will also discuss how to create a leadership style that others will view as being much prettier than those ugly ones.

Michelle Teague Bio:
Michelle and Jim Teague started A Teague of Your Own because they believe in not just giving back to their community; they want to give more to their community. As a former faculty member, corporate trainer, and a contract trainer, Michelle has spent years teaching and training individuals in both hard skills, such as accounting and OSHA, and in soft skills, such as communication and leadership. Speaking opportunities developed from customers asking for shorter, more entertaining versions of the full day trainings she provided to them. Coaching grew out of the speaking and training sessions she led when customers would ask her to follow up and coach employees, and executives, that needed to be held accountable for the changes they were committed to making.

A Teague of Your Own was created to add value to the people and organizations Michelle and Jim work with and help them overcome the challenges they face. The Teague’s work together with their customers to go beyond the goals that were set to achieve excellence.
