As the best-selling author of one of The 100 Best Business Books of All Time, an accomplished senior-level leadership consultant, and a frequent guest on news-talk shows around the country, Steve Farber has gained a reputation as a “leadership guru” in his own right.

Steve has worked with a wide variety of public and private organizations in virtually every arena, from the tech sector to financial services, manufacturing, health care, hospitality, entertainment, retail, government agencies and more, And whatever the audience, Steve’s speeches are always deeply thought-provoking and eminently practical, as well as inspiring and entertaining—a combination of qualities that are a must for any successful conference or meeting.

On Wednesday, March 25th, 2009 at 4pm Israel time, (10:00am eastern) Dov Gordon will host Steve Farber on a special tele-seminar for company owners and senior executives based on Steve’s just released book “Greater Than Yourself: The Ultimate Lesson of True Leadership.”

After decades of time and millions of dollars spent on leadership development and mentoring programs, why is there still a crisis of leadership at many levels of the business world?

By now, most business leaders have learned that their job is to expand and develop their own capacity, while simultaneously preparing the next generation of leaders to take the reins. Develop talent, they’ve been taught. Be a coach. A mentor.

But it doesn’t happen all that often. At least, not in any significant way. Maybe we’ve just been expecting too much. Steve Farber believes that we’ve actually been expecting too little. It’s time, he says, to set a new gold standard for what it means to be a leader of substance and influence: The true measure of your greatness as a leader is to develop leaders who are greater than you.

In this tele-seminar —based on his new book, Greater Than Yourself — Steve Farber shows that dedicating yourself to bringing others along so that they can achieve more than you is the ultimate way to boost talent, ramp productivity and create truly significant current and future leaders.

With this powerful, three-step approach, Steve reveals how your organization or team can achieve explosive results by encouraging every leader and employee to take on a Greater Than Yourself relationship for unprecedented personal growth and productivity:

* Expand Yourself – you’ll discover tools to deepen and expand your personal capabilities — the raw material for true leadership.

* Give Yourself – you’ll learn the art of ‘philanthropizing’ your leadership approach — the raw material for developing capacity in others.

* Replicate Yourself – you’ll experience the power of expanding beyond your personal, one-to-one influence — the raw material for changing your organization for the better.

As a speaker, Steve ignites audiences with the power of his ideas, and Greater Than Yourself will show you and your organization how to attain the new gold standard of leadership and re-enlist in greatness — beginning with one employee and one relationship at a time.

Quotes from Steve Farber:

“True leadership is not about calling yourself ‘leader’; rather, it’s about
taking up the cause to change things for the better. It is an extreme act
rooted in love and motivated by a desire to create a better world—whether it’s the world of your company, team, neighborhood or family.”
