“Win With Discipline” Seminars and Speaking Engagements

Does your organization lack a sense of urgency, practice poor goal management techniques, lack focus, and manage their time ineffectively? Do they have what it takes to compete at the highest level in this economically challenged marketplace?

World-renowned industry expert, author, and publisher Harris Kern, delivers lively presentations on how to build competitive organizations and develop superstar employees by adopting discipline. The most important ingredient in one’s lifetime is discipline, with it you can achieve anything, without it you will struggle to exist.

Mr. Kern’s material is based upon real-world data I have collected in more than 400 assessments and strategy workshops for Fortune 500 and Global 2000 companies. The content includes a dose of the no-nonsense, common sense approaches, which are documented in his best selling series of books. This information extends well beyond technology-bound publications predominant in this industry and the general data provided by leading research firms.

Mr. Kern will come to your organization and have an interactive seminar where he will educate your organization on his principles for success.
