Great businesses are not built on strategy alone. They are built on leaders who can manage themselves.

In this powerful workshop, inspired by the leadership philosophy of Ari Weinzweig, cofounder of Zingerman's and author of Zingerman’s Guide to Good Leading Part 3: A Lapsed Anarchist’s Approach to Managing Ourselves, you will explore 12 practical disciplines that shape performance, culture, and long term success.

If you are a business owner, executive, or team leader who wants higher standards, stronger execution, and better results, this event is for you.

Because the ceiling of your business is often the ceiling of its leadership.

• Learn practical leadership disciplines used inside one of the most respected business communities in America
• Improve focus, decision making, emotional discipline, and follow through
• Create greater alignment between leadership behavior and organizational performance
• Strengthen your management team with shared language and standards

This workshop goes beyond inspiration. You will leave with specific practices you can apply immediately in how you lead meetings, handle pressure, manage time, and set expectations.

This event is ideal for:

• Business owners who want to raise the performance ceiling of their company
• Executives and department heads responsible for driving results
• Managers who influence culture and daily execution
• Leadership teams who want to grow together, not in silos

Owners are strongly encouraged to bring their managers and key people. When only one leader improves, progress is incremental. When the leadership team grows together, momentum compounds.

Most leadership events focus on tactics.

This session focuses on the root.

How you manage your time.
How you manage your energy.
How you manage your emotions.
How you manage your commitments.

These internal disciplines determine whether strategy succeeds or fails.

Zingerman’s began with a small deli and grew into a community of businesses generating more than $65 million annually. Their growth was not accidental. It was fueled by disciplined leadership practices that can be applied in any organization.

You will not hear fluff. You will gain practical tools grounded in decades of real business experience.
