 October 5^th – General Book Signing Event featuring, Bill Welter, discussing his book, The Prepared Mind of a Leader; Eight Skills Leaders Use To Innovate, Make Decisions, and Solve Problems.  This will take place at the Hotel Sofitel in Rosemont, IL.

In today’s complex business climate, people—no matter what their role in the organization—need to make informed decisions and learn how to think flexibly.

A leader’s most important asset is the ability to anticipate changes in the environment and adapt to them quickly.  The Prepared Mind of a Leader presents an original and effective way to think more flexibly about innovation, strategy, change, and problem solving.  Bill Welter, the author and speaker, will prepare you for the future by laying out a program for developing, maintaining, and mobilizing the key mental skills (observing, reasoning, imagining, challenging, deciding, learning, enabling, and reflecting) that define Prepared Mind leadership.  These eight skills can be applied in a wide range of settings, from large-scale organizations to small entrepreneurial firms.

Please bring yourself and present and future leaders to this enlightening discussion.  For more information, call SSP at 312-577-4001.
