EP. #32: VISION & LEADERSHIP with Oleg Konovalov, Author, Leadership Coach

The topic of today’s podcast is VISION, which is that unique,
special, rare, aspirational and yet tangible ingredient of
leadership only the most impactful leaders display, to the point
we may conclude VISION is what makes their leadership so strong
and impactful.


When we take a close look at the way people like  Apple’s
Steve Jobs, of Singapore’s Lee Kuan Yew, and the many corporate
and community leaders who have changed the world operate their
business, we realize they couldn’t have achieved the
extraordinary results they achieved without a clear and 
compelling vision.


You may wonder if creating a vision that makes a difference in
the world is something anyone can do, and the answer is yes and
no.


While ambition, positive thinking, and a desire to succeed may
favor the development of a strong vision, they are certainly not
enough.


With my guest today Dr. Oleg Konovalov a thought leader, author,
business educator, consultant, and coach with over 25 years of
experience operating businesses and consulting Fortune 500
companies internationally I will try to decipher the code that
makes vision a reality.


Oleg is the author of the book The Vision Code, in which he
reveals the secrets of building and executing a strong vision
within any organization. Oleg draws together in one volume
in-depth interviews with nineteen extraordinary global
visionaries that represent a variety of industries and
organizations. These leaders explain why a vision is needed, how
to implement it, how to communicate it effectively, and how to
live by it with integrity





The stories of the nineteen leaders reveal how to develop a
compelling vision and follow through with it in order to inspire
an entire workforce. When a leader taps into the power of
"vision," he or she creates a more meaningful business experience
and ultimately, a better life. 


This interview will offer you guidance and inspiration in your
journey as a leader and will provide you with words of wisdom
that will trigger deep and meaningful reflection.


To be a visionaire you must be book-smart, street-smart and
nature smart, says oleg Konovalov, and with it I let the music
start.
