Today’s guest has been helping train leaders and their teams for several decades. In fact, you’d be hard-pressed to find someone else with her level of training experience.
Her name is Meredith Bell. She is president and co-founder of Performance Support Systems, a global software company. Since 1994 she has helped develop brain-based, online assessment and development tools that make long-term improvements in leader and team performance.
She’s also the author of several books over the years. The one I’ve decided to dive into today is called Strong For Performance: Create Learning and Development Programs That Stick.
In Strong for Performance, Meredith provides a clear, simple explanation for creating lasting improvements in the performance of leaders and teams.
Marshall Goldsmith even says to “Use this book as a roadmap for strengthening the people in your organization and building a positive coaching culture.”
