About John Robertson

Speaker and Author of the book \"Focus Forward Leadership: Maximizing Profits in the Artificial Intelligence Age.\" Artificial Intelligence is fast becoming the most important factor in the life of every business. Goals have remained the same but the rules are changing.From my experience as a CEO of two multi-million-dollar corporations and as a colonel in the US Air Force managing an $8-billion-dollar budget, I know firsthand how hard it is to focus an organization for the future. I show audiences in humorous ways how they can adapt their operations to use artificial intelligence to maximize profits. As a result of working with me CEO’s learn to Focus their leaders Forward for the changes Artificial Intelligence will require. In one case, I helped a client company increase profits by 250 percent.If you would be open to a conversation about having me speak or consult with your organization that would be great.

   Leadership

   Leadership Identity is more than behavioral analysis, motivation, or talent and competencies. It requires an awareness of how the leaders are leading, how they want to be led and how well they are received by the others they are leading. Leadership ID provides an insight into what drives an executive to produce results. It also provides a benchmark for expectations about the Leadership Performance Attributes required for that position to achieve success. At Leadership ID our analysis requires a look at the dynamic interface that balances teams and drives productivity. It also requires development of the right metrics to enhance rather than activities that contribute to future growth and productivity.The right Leadership Identification has proven to enhance teams and individuals ability to consistently provide results above expectations.
