			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bonjour!</p>
<br />
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Living in a French village for the last couple of months has shown me <strong>how differently we all communicate</strong> and how uncomfortable it is to deal with people who <strong>just don&#8217;t get</strong> what we are trying to convey.</span></p>
<br />
<p>Try walking into the local pub in our small village in Southern France like I did today.</p>
<div>
<br />
<p>I don&#8217;t speak French, they don&#8217;t speak English. Thank God &#8220;Beer&#8221; sounds vaguely similar to the French translation! Thankfully, I did get my beer but that was <strong>the END of the conversation. </strong>It&#8217;s times like this that I would really like to <strong>understand their language</strong>&#8230;I try but it&#8217;s not easy.</p>
<div>
<br />
<p>It reminds me of so many of you in your leadership roles. You can&#8217;t work out why people are disengaged. The issue: The way YOU communicate is <strong>NOT </strong>the way THEY communicate&#8230;.</p>
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">It&#8217;s a FACT that nearly <strong>80% of Australian workers are disengaged</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">It&#8217;s a FACT that engaged employees are directly related to the <strong>way they are led</strong></span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Is it time for you to &#8216;look in the leadership mirror&#8217;? Time to look at proven strategies that better engage people (from our 15 years of research)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">Are you interested in keeping and attracting good people?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: small;">You owe it to yourself, your business, and your family to sharpen your relationship saw</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<p><span style="font-size: small;"><strong>Leadership NOW provides this opportunity.</strong></span></p>
<br />
<p><span style="font-size: small;">Leadership NOW is a 4-day residential program evolved from over 15 years working with thousands of leaders from all industries. It&#8217;s not just my brains, but theirs too, that have helped make this such a unique and practical experience.</span></p>
<br />
<p><span style="font-size: small;">We chose the <strong>distraction-free environment</strong> of Lady Elliot Island in QLD so you wouldn&#8217;t forget the experience and valuable learning that has already impacted leaders Australia-wide. The next public program is November 22-25. </span>During this time, you will share a powerful and unforgettable experience with up to <strong>11 other like-minded leaders</strong> from a range of industries, all seeking to build their leadership capacity.</p>
<br />
<p>Read more about this amazing opportunity to enhance your leadership <a title="here" href="http://www.bridgeworks.com.au/LeadershipNOW.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<br />
<p>Thanks for reading and I&#8217;ll update you with more observations from France in a little bit!</p>
<br />
<p>All the best,</p>
<br />
<p>Wayne</p>
