Dave Logan Speaker Biography
Dr. Dave Logan is the bestselling author of Tribal Leadership (#1 New York Times) , The Three Laws of Performance, and The Best Medicine. He is a consultant to dozens of Fortune 500 companies and is endorsed by some of the most successful Leaders in the world. Dave is called an expert in organizational management, a guru in leadership, and a cultural transformationalist.
He has been interviewed on CNN, Fox, National Public Radio and most major networks. His CBS MoneyWatch blog has been read by over two million people, and his TEDx Talk (selected as an official TED Talk) has been seen by over a million people.
Dave has been on the USC faculty since 1996, and served as associate dean for four years. He teaches in the Executive MBA, Executive Master of Leadership, and Master of Medical Management programs. He is also on the faculty of the American Association for Physician Leaders (formerly ACPE), the Getty Leadership Institute at Claremont Graduate School, the Global Institute of Leadership Development (Linkage) and over a dozen corporate universities around the world. He has guest lectured at many major business schools around the world.
Dave’s business is business culture. He brings culture into sync with markets, strategy, and all parts of a business, resulting in high performance, energized customers, vibrant employees, and centers of innovation. The research for his company was published in 2008 as Tribal Leadership (Collins).
Dave studies how people communicate within a company — and how to harness our natural gifts to make change within organizations. He looks at emerging patterns of corporate leadership, organizational transformation, generational differences in the workplace, and team building for high-potential managers and executives. Dave has a Ph.D. in Organizational Communication from the Annenberg School at USC.
BE THIS NOT THAT
People become managers by going through a process of identifying their strengths, planning a course of study, and executing it with discipline. When it comes time for people to become leaders – and amplify their impact – most people try to use the same process, and it fails. Leadership development does follow a flow, but it’s opposite of what people think.
In this session, Dave will share simple guides from his upcoming book Be This, Not That: Turning Managers Into Leaders, curated from the best leaders of the past 100 years that helped each make lasting changes in impact and the world. Largely based on 30 years of consulting research and his long-time friendship with transformational leadership guru Warren Bennis, this book provides guides of leadership that have the power to transform careers, businesses and lives.
TRIBAL LEADERSHIP
Every organization and company is a tribe, or a network of tribes—groups of 20 to 150 people that form naturally, in which everyone knows everyone else, or at least knows of them. In this highly interactive session, Dave Logan show participants how to upgrade their organization one tribe at a time. The result is unprecedented impact, innovation, and success at hitting key performance goals. At the heart of this session is the principals’ ten-year study on 24,000 people (published in 2008 by HarperCollins as Tribal Leadership by Logan, King, and Fischer-Wright) that mapped, for the first time, five stages of corporate culture and the unique leverage points to nudge a group forward.
The result is industry-leading productivity, innovation, collaboration, and job satisfaction. The other benefits include that participants will be able to:
- Assess their culture’s effectiveness level.
- Improve the effectiveness of their culture.
- Take the first critical steps in building a higher-level culture.
- Identify shared values in their organization.
- Build upon values to overcome lack of consensus.
THE BEST MEDICINE
Most leaders agree that culture is the critical factor in performance, but can’t define it, measure it, or change it. As a result, the few organizations that get culture right seem magical, and people who try to replicate their success usually end up frustrated and cynical. Dave shows two simple steps-diagnosis and then the best treatment that leaders take to build cultures that can do things most people think is impossible: out-innovating, outperforming, creating an immunity to scandals, and having mountains of fun in the process.
