With more than two decades of experience in world-class organizations like Apple and Adobe, in roles spanning from entry-level to executive leadership, Phil Putnam brings a rare blend of strategic business expertise and an incisive understanding of human behavior.
He knows how to lead, and he knows what it’s like to be led.
His human-centered leadership framework, GIVE TO GET TM , is grounded in the core truth that drives all performance: people work to get the life they desire.
Phil’s signature keynotes, rooted in his GIVE TO GET TM approach, offer a data-backed, deeply human path to action and excellence from today’s employees, volunteers, and buyers.
At the heart of every talk is one powerful idea: we work to get the life we desire, and the fulfillment of our desires builds the deeply trusting teams that win amidst the constant change of today’s world.
When leaders understand this, everything grows.
Phil’s talks will teach you how to:
There is one proven pathway to your employees’ best performance: their ability to get the life they desire from the work they give.
Most managers try to motivate their people’s performance with the message of, “When you give us your best, we’ll hit our goals!” This never taps anyone’s full potential because, while most people care about their employer’s success, every person cares MOST about getting the life they desire.
Denying this human truth costs employers billions of dollars every year because when leaders leverage a second-place motivation, they get second-place results.
Desire-Based Leadership: A Manager’s Unexpected Key to Driving Top Performance gives people leaders of all levels insights and tools to get what they need most from their people by giving their people what they want most from their work, and lays out a rock-solid business case for how aligning with employee desires is the fastest, most reliable path to consistent business growth.
