LEADERSHIP TRAINING WITH A FOCUS ON ENGAGEMENT & CULTURE

The most effective leaders, teams and organizations in the world Step Back to move forward. They realize the new economy requires laser focus on developing leaders, culture and clarity of mission, vision and values. Employees who feel valued buy in to the core values of the organization and have a clear vision for WHY, WHERE and HOW they are going to travel into the future.

In a world that is more busy than effective, the best leaders understand that growing and developing an organization takes intentional focus and action. They are committed to engaging the minds and hearts of their people. Step Back Leadership Consulting is passionate about this work.

ENGAGEMENT

A trait of the most successful leaders, teams and organizations are the ones who engage the minds and hearts of their members. They proactively create experiences for their people to grow, learn, develop and operate out of their core strengths.

Teams and organizations that focus and develop the strengths and leadership of their members remove disengagement almost entirely: from 22 out of 100 disengaged members on average, to an average of 1 out of 100 members (Gallup Organization, Strengths Assessment, 2010).

CULTURE

Culture is defined by the way we think, act and interact. It’s dynamic, and it’s always changing. Step Back Leadership Consulting implements the 6 A Process For Leading Organizational Change to help teams set the temperature they want for their culture.

Why? Because the most successful teams and organizations on the planet are conscious about articulating their mission. They bring clarity to their core values and develop clear language to describe the leadership attributes their organization needs to be successful. They create experiences for their members to learn, practice and develop the actions necessary to bring their core values to life. They focus relentlessly on how their people interact. They understand that culture is created one person and one action at a time.

WORK WITH JASON AND TEAM

CONSULTING

Leadership training through development and culture shaping is not a drive-thru experience. The very best leaders, teams and organizations commit to an ongoing ethic of developing their people and culture.

An ongoing relationship with a facilitator allows for authentic interactions and increases the effectiveness and long-term sustainability.

STEP BACK’S PHILOSOPHY FOR LEADING CHANGE

True culture change occurs for an individual, team, or organization because of focus and disciplined action.

Most change initiatives fail because we are moving too quickly, aren’t able to give our full attention to the areas in need, aren’t clear about the vision for how we want things to be different, and/or not able to stay disciplined enough over time to see the change through. Step Back to move forward. Leadership training through development and culture-shaping is not a “drive thru” experience. It takes a commitment to a continuous process of development, vision, communication, engagement, authenticity, and action. Change happens one small action at a time. Step Back Leadership Consulting LLC designs processes for individuals, teams, and organizations that fit their unique needs and objectives. Processes are congruent with years of research, study, and guiding principles.

Jason is great! He has worked with our senior leadership team for years now to develop a stronger, engaged team, and he’s worked with all of our leadership team with a focus on core values and enhancing organizational engagement. He’s a dynamic person with a great sense of humor. He puts everyone at ease, while still challenging them to think creatively and with a servant’s heart.

Jason is great! He’s got the personality and professionalism to make executive meetings move toward a winning goal and the strategic aptitude to make sure those goals are achievable, executable and on-target to improve business. His knowledge of how a brand works is invaluable and, above all, he’s just a great person to have assist the team. We would hire him again in a minute!

Jason’s passion about change and a positive environment has been the missing link as we move to change our culture and develop our leadership team. His basic fundamental approach, coupled with the thought provoking exercises, creates the perfect environment for open and honest dialogue.
Scott DeLongCEO, CRSI
I had the great pleasure of partnering with Jason Barger and Step Back Leadership Consulting for three years while I was a Vice President of Human Resources in a culture of hyper growth and a focus on change management. Jason created and facilitated customized leadership development programs for high potential executives and senior leaders and for entry level leaders across all functional areas of our Retail Marketing and Credit Business. Jason is an exceptional public keynote speaker that embraces authentic leadership messages and creates tools that leaders of all levels can use to build on strengths and work through opportunities. Jason has a unique ability to identify how to focus on leadership competencies and values of the company while creating lasting learning. Jason’s high level of integrity shows through in all of his engagements from brainstorming, to program development, to facilitating and measuring success. I highly recommend Jason for any large or small group leadership training, keynote speaking, and cultural change development. Jason is a true game changer.
Shelly MarksFormer EVP, Alliance Data
Jason is an energetic and engaging communicator who was able to effectively connect his messages to our organization’s goals and values. He provided us with many helpful tools we will be able to utilize moving forward. Our team had nothing but great things to say about Jason’s presentations. He was able to quickly connect with the group and find creative ways to engage everyone while effectively tailoring his message to the theme of our event. His passion and dedication to the growth of individuals and organizations is evident. His energy is contagious, and our team left his presentations refreshed and rejuvenated. Jason’s values and motivations were right in line with our department’s culture. His passion to promote leadership was truly inspiring and energizing.
