HOW TO DEVELOP LEADERS

Tips on how to develop leaders with Peter Montoya

As I help develop leaders my job is to help them become much more effective. And oftentimes I serve as a leader confidant.
The feedback agreement is, you want to give feedback that is kind, honest and helpful.
All leadership is leadership development, which means that my sole job is to be coaching, training, mentoring people in my organizations to be a leader themself, leaders of friends and family, and leaders in my organization.

Doug: Well, welcome back listeners to another episode of Real Marketing Real Fast. Today in the studio I've got joining me, Peter Montoya. Now, Peter is a very gifted speaker. He is a bestselling author. He's a successful entrepreneur. And rarely do you find all three qualities like that in one person. Peter's a thought leader, he's a skilled orator and a leadership strategist with real-life experience driving his insights and ideas.

Doug: His business acumen, inspirational journey, and human behavior insight and decades of real-life experience have helped him become one of the most inspirational and sought after speakers, coaches, and leaders in development for creating high performing teams.

Oftentimes what leaders need is someone to cry over the phone at nine o'clock at night when they're faced with really big decisions. And then also helping people inside companies work better together and get more done. And that really comes to the process of empowerment.

Doug: Well, as I mentioned before we started recording, one of the things that really caught my eye when I was looking through your skillsets, and I would assume those are your kind of four power talks or presentations you get, was the feedback agreement. And as a creative agency, often we find it difficult working with clients because everybody's got an opinion.

Doug: Can you walk us through a bit of the low hanging fruit, how you help your leaders to make sure that they're getting appropriate feedback and dealing with that, and being able to use that to empower their peopl...
