Welcome to RLM Planning and Leadership

Did you know that a large percentage of people who leave a company say they did so because of their boss?

Those first and mid-level people you call managers are leading people.

How they do that has a significant and long lasting effect on employees, customers, and clients.

Managers also manage the human resource. People expect to be managed but they prefer to be led!

Leadership is a skill that must be developed. Though there are many aspects of successful leadership, it’s not an overly complex subject. In fact, we reject efforts to make it more difficult than it needs to be in an effort to sell books or charge higher fees.

Unfortunately, people are often placed in a leadership position with no leadership training or development and as a result, many fail. For some reason, the senior people in the organization don’t understand why those people, who they initially had confidence in, don’t succeed.

Usually, there are two reasons why new leaders don’t succeed.

1. They haven’t received even basic leadership training!

2. They don’t know what the mission and goals are.

At RLM Planning and Leadership, the mission is:

Improve leader effectiveness by training leadership techniques and providing post-training follow-up to cement leadership concepts.

That mission has 4 parts.

1. Developing new leaders by training them in basic leadership skills: turning managers into leaders!

2. Help higher level leaders improve their effectiveness by training advanced techniques, including leading other leaders.

3. Help leaders learn effective strategic planning.

4. Providing follow-up to ensure long-term effectiveness of the training.
