Finding Your Forte with Elton Potts - Lead, Faith, Purpose

LEADING WITH FAITH AND PURPOSE Host and Facilitator ELTON POTTS

Why is Finding Your Forte Important? All too often, professionals are merely focused on doing their job and don’t have the opportunity to be strategic about performing in a way that plays to their strengths, leverages their passions and rewards them in ways that motivate them. Using purpose as an engagement strategy drives satisfaction, job performance and retention. This empowers you to put yourself in a position to have not just a job…or even a career...but a calling – as a way of living. It doesn’t have to mean immediate abrupt and risky change. It does give you a long term vision so you can move in the right direction. You Need a FORTE becauseYour Best Needs A Plan

Elton is on a mission to help promising executives earn positions of greater responsibility and leadership. He works closely with executives who are capable of more, but need to hone their skills in an area or two to unlock their potential. As a man of faith with the range of experience from Fortune 500 CEO to entrepreneur, he encourages leaders to embrace their own values, ethics and faith in the way they lead and navigate their careers. Elton brings the “walk a mile in your shoes” experience. He rose through corporate organizations to ultimately run a global company and led his team to record revenue and EBITDA levels. "Many high performing executives rely too heavily on the skills that got them to their current success, without realizing that new skills are often required to move even higher in the organization. My goal is to help the executive see the opportunity areas for themselves, and then work with them to learn new skills to achieve their goals. My greatest satisfaction is seeing a promising executive achieve his/her career dreams.” – Elton Potts
