• Do you want to be a better board member?
• Do you want your board to provide true leadership?
• Good.

Meet Joe Victor.  Successful in his personal, professional, and civic life.  Sought after as an executive and as a board member.  Seen as a paragon of accomplishment by friends, family, and peers.

But it wasn’t always this way.  Midway through his career Joe had felt as if he was being bombarded from all sides.  His job was demanding, his family was growing, and the volunteer positions he had accepted were becoming overwhelming.  He felt like he was spending lots of time at board meetings but not really getting anything worthwhile accomplished. Like so many of us, Joe was ready to “throw in the towel,” resign his board positions, and seek success elsewhere.

Fortunately Joe’s wife, Patricia, saw his distress and introduced him to Natalie Benson.  In turn, Natalie convinced Joe to seek the "OnTarget way."

Join Joe as he shares his journey of discovery and accomplishment, and learn the eight indisputable behaviors that distinguish high achieving board members from all the rest.  Attend a board meeting and see how the behaviors transform any board – non-profit, for-profit or civic, into a high performance team.

Told in an engaging and compelling story fashion, and examined through the eyes of Ivan John, a reporter for the Sunday News, Joe’s recipe for excellence—the eight indisputable behaviors—are brought to life.

Co-written with Brian Tracy and leading experts from around the world, this book is a best seller on Amazon.  My contribution explores a governance topic familiar to ICMA members – how boundaries can empower your team and your life.

As adults, we have a tendency to think of boundaries or barriers as limiting; something to break through or blow by, when in reality a thoughtful boundary can be incredibly empowering and freeing.

How many of us know of someone who has lost a career or a marriage or a special relationship because they chose to transgress a boundary?  The fact is that thoughtful boundaries provide safety, security, and reward while encouraging everyone to do their best.

If you want to see an improvement in innovation, enthusiasm and performance in your teams, discover the freedom that thoughtful limits provide.  By letting go you really can go faster – and everyone enjoys the journey more!

The Success Secret was a multilist best seller on Amazon. Jack Canfield (of "Chicken Soup" fame) headlined this incredible collection of stories from all walks of life.

My contribution deals with the importance of knowing what your target is before you try to hit it.  Based on a thirty year career in local government and almost a decade of consulting with city councils and other boards of directors, I have come to believe that the lack of clarity surrounding desired outcomes is the most significant shortcoming in the governance process.

In true “Chicken Soup” style I tell a story and then draw conclusions that will absolutely resonate with professional local government administrators.

Jack’s contribution underscores this point.  As he talks about “success made simple,” he says, “Most people never take the time to sit down and design the life they want to live.”  In my words, they never fully clarify their target.

An easy and entertaining read!
