President Barack Obama stands at the forefront of a transformational leadership model that is generational, collaborative, and technological. As chief operating officer and senior advisor to the Obama for America campaign, Betsy Myers had a front row seat to history in the making. Through lessons learned from the campaign and President Obama's leadership style, she helps leaders in both the public and private sectors apply those elements to their own organizations. Betsy outlines the tenets of respectful leadership and offers tactics for leaders who seek to improve personal and organizational success. Through compelling behind-the-scenes insight, Betsy helps audiences understand how to empower teams to take initiative with personal responsibility and how to gain credibility from teams by talking truth to difficult issues.
Betsy Myers explores the fundamental leadership skills of personal and interpersonal leadership development. She believes the hardest person you will ever manage is yourself. In this presentation, Betsy uncovers the key tools to use while thinking about and exploring personal leadership effectiveness. Her remarks focus on personal authenticity, how to seek out and understand your personal and organizational effectiveness, developing a personal advisory board, establishing critical listening skills, and the importance of appreciating and acknowledging yourself and your team.
In this provocative presentation, Betsy Myers discusses important research and thinking around women in leadership. She explores the history of the movement for equality and shares insights gleaned through her work with Gloria Steinum, Betty Friedan, and Bella Abzug.

She helps audiences understand what it will take to continue closing the confidence gap, how to confront the balance question (is it really possible?), the different leadership styles of men and women, and leadership in the new generation of women.
