Leadership & Influence in the Family Business — an interactive session with Dr. Tom Epperson

Join Dr. Tom Epperson, EdD, President, InnerWill Leadership Institute, and David Shaw, Publishing Director, Family Business Magazine in an interactive discussion on how to ethically and effectively influence others.

Crises have a way of revealing and recalibrating what it means to lead.  Great leadership is about commitment, not compliance, and in the increasingly complex business environment great leadership is more vital than ever. In this webinar, Dr. Tom Epperson will discuss how your personal values, style, and leadership choices can build commitment and have a positive impact within your family and your family business.

This interactive webinar will explore:

  • The principles of influence
  • The difference between compliance and commitment
  • The importance of setting the example
  • Effectively adapting to people and situations
  • The power of leadership vision

Join Dr. Tom Epperson, EdD, President, InnerWill Leadership Institute, and David Shaw, Publishing Director, Family Business Magazine in an interactive discussion on how to ethically and effectively influence others.
