I teach, but not in the typical way

                   “I’ve been to a lot of seminars and workshops,                                               but none of them were quite like Archie’s.”

For me, the key to teaching leadership is to have the participants in my workshops and seminars spend their time working on activities that are as close to the real world as possible.  I spend a lot of time figuring out what their work is like before I create real-life scenarios for them to work on.  I never, ever rely on off-the-shelf products.  I always start fresh, building programs that are engaging, relevant, and practical.

Participants in my programs are better prepared to deal with the challenges they face when they go back to work. 

“I didn’t know what to expect when I went to the first of Archie’s seminars.  I brought my Blackberry with me, thinking I could kill time checking my email.  I never got the chance to open it up, we were kept busy the whole time.”

“He had us working on problems that were just like what we do at work.”

“Archie provided simple, specific suggestions that I could put to use immediately.”

“Sometimes, when you go to a class, you learn something useful            and relevant.  In some instances, you learn about yourself.                        In Archie’s class, I learned both.”

“I had always thought that leadership was pretty much the                     same for everyone.  Not anymore.  Archie helped me to realize                     that we each lead a little differently and that it’s up to us to figure             out how we can become a better leader in a way that fits who                   we are and where we work.”
