Keynote Address
A Blueprint for Leadership: Influence, Discipline, and Daily
Habits
|
True leadership is not about titles or power. It’s about influence, consistency, and the discipline to show up every day with purpose. In this keynote, Wesley S. Crocket (Co-Owner/GM - Mahogany Builders – Chicago, Il) shares a practical framework for leading teams with clarity, accountability, and discipline. Drawing on real-world lessons from running a high-performing remodeling company, Wes explores how to define, measure, and strengthen leadership through what you celebrate, tolerate, and demonstrate. Attendees will walk away with actionable insights for building trust, shaping team culture, and developing habits that turn good leaders into great ones. |
