How to Lead a Multi-Generational Team
But first ... a quick round-up ... the Uspire team have certainly racked up the miles this month, delivering Academies literally all over the world. We kicked off the month with an incredible Uspire LIVE in London, which was not only an awesome afternoon of provocation, but a wonderful opportunity for our team to re-engage in person before the months activities began.
Mark Francis and Chester Robinson , along with Uspire partner Coleen Wiltshire , jetted off almost immediately post-LIVE to deliver a Sales Leader Academy in Athens for a long-standing medical devices client. Whilst Mark failed to sit still for long and delivered a leadership day for a wine client in Paso Robles, California, and facilitated a luxury wine conference in Phuket ... not at all envious!... rounding off the month with a Sales Academy in Salzburg Austria. Amanda Downs meanwhile, delivered Academies in locations that, whilst maybe not as exotic as her colleagues, were no less exciting, with visits to Centre Parcs, The Hospiteum in York and Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter!
