My Story @EdmontonPm – In 1982 I read Tom Peters “In Search of Excellence: Lessons from America’s Best-Run Companies” and since then I have been on my personal search for amazing companies.

In the early 1990’s my search led me to understand the power of servant leadership and the ability to realize the incredible potential  in the individuals on my teams.

In the meantime I watched so many new hires  in organizations go from engaged, positive, creative and productive to disenchanted, and frustrated as they acclimatized to the traditional corporate culture of their new organizations.

I watched as Managers and Boards took no notice of the people and the potential they had within their organizations; and I was disappointed by so many organizations that were not striving for excellence …. but rather leaving their potential and profit on the table.

I knew it could be done – BUT WHO WAS DOING IT???

In 2015 I learned of the  Popeyes Story and how THEY are Daring To Serve!!

Under Cheryl A. Bachelder’s  ( CEO of Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen Inc. LinkedIn profile) “Dare to Serve!” Leadership she has reinvented Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen into one of America’s Best-Run Companies with:

  1. A 30% increase in sales in their average restaurant
  2. Average restaurant operating profit is up 40%
  3. Their market share among “Chicken” restaurants is up 50%
  4. Opened 450 + new restaurants including moving into the Canadian marketplace – All performing very well!
  5. Their stock price has increased from ~$13.00 USD when Cheryl started the turn around  through the Dare to Serve Model to ~$60.00 USD today
  6. And in the process they were daring to succeed, humble about their leadership path and creating Engaged Franchise Owners, Stakeholders, Shareholders, Managers Team Members, Crew & Guests to produce  “Top Notch Relationships” that led to  their great success.

In March of 2016 Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen opened their 1st Franchise in Canada!

November 2016 will see Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen’s 1st Franchise in Western Canada – In Edmonton – (my home town 🙂 ) with Calgary soon to follow!

To celebrate Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen’s upcoming opening in Edmonton: PDU Of The Day is proud to present this eye opening professional Development opportunity to help you understand how you can be Brave, Humble and Dare to Serve! in your organization

2015 Interview Becoming  a Dare to Serve Leader

Becoming a “Dare to Serve” Leader

Webinar Description

Our culture celebrates “The Spotlight Leader.” The leader is on stage – the spotlight is entirely on them – in short, it is all about them.

This leader declares a new vision, has all the answers, and is a high achiever.  We tolerate them being a bit self-absorbed because they are going places that we want to go, and if they are successful, we will be successfulso we think.

We vaguely know there is another kind of leadership – Servant leadership. This kind of leader is known for humility.

They shun the spotlight and listen carefully to the people because they care deeply about the people. They make decisions that serve the people well; they give others credit.

We wonder about these leaders ..
But We Shouldn’t!

Watch Cheryl Bachelder, CEO of Popeyes® Louisiana Kitchen, Inc., in these informative sessions on developing a better leadership strategy!

Cheryl wants to suggest a new idea – If you move yourself out of the spotlight and dare to serve others well, you will deliver superior performance results – and she’s got the experience to prove it!

Watch Cheryl as she talks to Becky Robinson about the ideas that have shaped her own leadership journey, and make up the basis of her groundbreaking book:

Dare to Serve:
How to Drive Superior Results by Serving Others

A Must Read For Every Leader!

In this webinar, Byron Love will explore the relationship between your personal credibility and your leadership, and between your leadership and the success of your project.

A leader without personal credibility will be frustrated and ineffective. In this presentation, “Personal Credibility and Leadership,” we discuss the relationship between your personal credibility and your leadership, and between your leadership and the success of your project. Mindful leaders are self-aware, and can therefore control their speech and behavior to ensure their actions will have the intended short-term and long-term effect. They remain composed, enabling them to anticipate the reactions of others, and counter their emotional reactions calmly and thoughtfully. Leaders who can behave like this, who take a mindful and versatile approach to work, develop and maintain personnel credibility because others—team members, senior leaders, and stakeholders—trust them to be a positive influence on any situation.

Byron Love, (LinkedIn profile) MBA, PgMP, PMP, CISSP, Project+, ITIL-F, is the program manager for Intrepid Solutions’ Enhanced Solutions for the IT Enterprise (E-SITE) contract vehicle. He has led projects and programs at over a dozen government organizations. Byron holds an MBA from Averett University, a BA in Computer Science from Thomas Edison State College, and two associate degrees as well. He is the author of the bestseller  IT Project Management: A Geek’s Guide to Leadership.

Microsoft licensing is a large percentage of most midmarket IT budgets.

Microsoft is also one of the more complex licensing constructs to understand.

Volume licensing programs are evolving to move midsize organizations into more of a direct relationship with the reseller, reducing negotiations with Microsoft. The licensing metrics for Windows Server 2016 is moving to core, which can increase costs.

The high end Office 365 suite bundles are being re-branded and re-bundled with new services.

In this webinar Dolores Ianni (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) examines these changes and how midsize organizations can address each of them.

Discussion Topics:

  • Whether the new MPSA Enterprise Advantage program rolling out in January 2017 is the best option for your organization
  • How the changes to Windows Server 2016 and System Center 2016 licensing will impact you and how to best prepare for the new licensing model and servicing options
  • What is in the new Secure Productive Enterprise Suite E3 and E5 Office 365 cloud bundles and whether they are attractive to midsize organizations
