Soundview to Host Interactive Webinar with Les McKeown

Online, May 25, 2012 (Newswire.com) - Why do so many teams and groups fail to perform-achieving compromise at best and gridlock at worst?

The Visionary with big ideas and little interest in execution. The Processor who insists on putting every detail through a system, slowing things down. The Operator who just wants to end the meeting and get back to the "real work." These three characters sit at every business meeting, each battling for their competing agendas and together blocking the way to real progress. What does it take to end this gridlock?

In this Soundview Live webinar, Lead Your Team to Predictable Success, Les McKeown argues that every successful team includes a critical fourth player-the Synergist-who can take all three: the visionary, the processor and the operator; and knit them together into a dynamic, well-rounded team.
