An Investment In Your Leaders and Employees. "Not providing leadership training because of cost is like not having a front door on your home and conducting regular family meetings about your high utility expenses." “Personnel issues are like diapers, when there is a stink, something must be changed. It won’t go away.” “It is the duty of a leader to make every effort to insure the success of others. Training and development are a major step in fulfilling that duty. If you do not see employee development as an important part of leadership, you can not be a successful leader. In most cases, when employees fail, leaders have failed.” "The improvement and development of an organization is limited by the improvement and development of its leadership. How is your leadership improving and developing?" "Not being intentional in leadership development is the equivalent of having a written goal of; “I want to have the same level of knowledge at the end of the year that I have now.”" "Why not use your business to build people as people build your business?" "Recipe for success - 1. Provide all leaders the skills to produce results with others. 2. Hold them accountable. One without the other will not work. ALARMT™ and LeaderMeetings.com will provide number 1. Number 2 is up to you. Responsibility without accountability does not produce a high percentage of success. This is true at every level." "There are over 500,000 monthly internet searches for “Management and Leadership Training”. Successful companies know the value of equipping and developing their leadership team." • Achieving excellent results by yourself with the proper training – Easy. • Achieving excellent results by leading others with the proper training – Difficult but highly possible. • Achieving excellent results by leading others without initial or ongoing training-Difficult, Unfair and Unrealistic. -Greg Gilbert - HR Consultant |

The Developer, The Presenter, The Course
Program developed and presented by Greg Gilbert.
"Greg, I need a course that is not smoke and mirrors, touchy feely, dog and pony, left brain, right brain or personality profiles. I need you to tap into your management and HR experience and develop a course that deals with real life front line management examples and leadership principles that produce results." - C. Gowder to Greg Gilbert - ALARMT is the product of that request. Of all the positive feedback received from ALARMT, I am most proud of this comment; "Greg, you can record this course on CD or DVD if you want, but "you" are ALARMT. This course would not be the same without your delivery." - Charles Gowder - Former General Manager of VTCI. (ALARMT was initially created for VTCI.) "Greg, you can work on an employee's quality, quantity, safety and attendance; but YOU cannot instill honesty and integrity in an employee. They either have it or they don't. You will not be good or lucky enough to catch a thief the first time he steals from you and until he changes his heart, he will steal from you again." Jim McMains to new HR Area Manager Greg Gilbert in October 1989. That is just a sample of the wealth of information we will be sharing with your management team in Accountable Leadership And Results Management Training. What has that comment from a mentor been worth to me at work and in life? Priceless!! Our course, Accountable Leadership And Results Management Training (ALARMT™) was created as a result of a phone call. The call came from a frustrated General Manager with a plea that I design a course that covered real-life management situations. He didn't want personality profiles or touchy-feely (his words). He wanted a course that covered how to identify, address and correct problems. He wanted results. That is ALARMT™! My name is Greg Gilbert and I developed ALARMT™. I have retired as the Area Manager of Human Resources from a Fortune 100 telecommunications company. I have decades of successful supervisory and management experience but the bulk of this program comes from over a decade as Area Manager Human Resources and fifteen years as a PHR (Professional Human Resources). I was the primary HR contact to over 2000 employees. I requested the assignment in HR and am so grateful for that opportunity. I learned so much about people in this position but the one I learned the most about was me! Thank goodness, because I was also the only person I could change. I have seen what has not worked and resulted in damage control, increased cost or liability and in many cases, disaster. I've also witnessed supervisors that ran excellent teams for years with constantly improving results and no personnel problems. I know how they did it. They became "brilliant in the basics". This is what we are all striving for. Believe me, I would have been a much better manager after more than a decade in HR. I have been a member of SHRM (Society of Human Resources Management) since 1993 and was certified as a PHR (Professional Human Resources) for 15 years. This class was initially titled BOSS (Basics Of Successful Supervision) and was delivered to attendees in Arkansas and Texas. The name was changed because much more than basics are covered. We cover many different aspects of the management position, not just "basics". In addition to delivering this class live, I have also delivered a presentation "Life Résumé Update" to dozens of audiences in Arkansas and Texas. In 2005 I attended Willie Jolleys' Motivational Speaking and Beyond Training in Washington, DC. I went through years of journals, Franklin Planners and Palm Pilots to touch on most issues a supervisor will encounter. Because of sheer numbers, I faced issues weekly that many supervisors may not deal with in a career. Thank goodness I kept good notes. That is why I discuss documentation frequently in the course. This program also includes the wisdom of many leaders, peers and mentors that influenced my life and career. I didn't have to learn all of this on my own, neither should your management team. This course has been presented to different levels of management, police officers and factory supervisors with very favorable reviews. Even though we offer a money-back guarantee, a refund has never been requested. This is not a smoke and mirrors class. Attendees will receive information on real life incidents. It is as if all my leaders, mentors, peers and myself just sat and visited with your managers. They will also be asked to do a gut-check and honestly evaluate their ability to handle conflict, confrontation and develop employees. Can they have the necessary "courageous conversation" with a non-performing employee? Some supervisors are creating enormous stress in their life and doing their company a disservice by occupying their position. I hate to say that but I promised you "real-life" and no "touchy-feely". But consider this; is the stress and disservice a result of not having the proper training to produce excellent results or is it just truly a mismatch of position and personality? Your results are a reflection of the knowledge level and skill sets of your management team. We are here to assist in the proper training. If utilized, the information in this course will increase productivity, reduce absence, improve quality and customer service. It could possibly reduce or eliminate your liability in some cases by increasing awareness of different issues. All of these items lead to increased profits and longevity. I will be the one covering the material with your work group. I've lived it and want to share this result and life changing material in person. In very few companies will you have the course developer also delivering the material. I am committed to adding to the skill sets of the attendees. Both ALARMT™ and ManagerMeetings.com are priced to be a minimal investment in the future success of each supervisor. As I type this introduction about myself and the program I also realize that you don't really give a flip what is in my past, you want assurance that if this course is in your future, you will be satisfied. For this reason we have a no risk guarantee on the ALARMT™ course and offer a refund on unused months of the ManagerMeetings.com™ subscription. We are very confident that no matter what your level of management, position or tenure, your team will pick up items that will improve your organization.
I am very proud of this course and extremely appreciative to the leaders, peers and mentors that provided me with the opportunities, education and experience to put these topics together. I've always heard the old cliché that "knowledge is power" but I truly believe that knowledge without action is useless. I believe wisdom comes as a result of applying knowledge. I was very fortunate to be a recipient of the wisdom of my leaders, peers and mentors. I believe combining the education and knowledge of this course with the application of your work group will produce a very productive, profitable and sustainable organization. Thank you for your interest and we look forward to ALARMTing your entire organization. Sincerely, Greg Gilbert To look at our different products, click HERE. |
