Tom Champoux
President
Tom Champoux, nationally recognized as a dynamic speaker and energizing trainer, challenges long-held myths about leadership and followership. Drawing on over 25 years experience as a teacher, coach, trainer and speaker, he believes that those who do not balance the relationship between people skills and technical skills will have difficulty succeeding in today's fast paced marketplace. The heart of Tom's work lies in creating an organizational climate built around empowerment and the exchange of trust, respect and dignity.
As President of The Effectiveness Institute, Tom Champoux works with people at all levels of an organization to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of their working relationships. By teaching them how to break down barriers and find common goals, Tom dramatically demonstrates the need for organizations to shift focus away from power and toward collaborative responsibility.
Tom addresses national conventions and annual meetings on such topics as "Teams That Work," "The Changing Role of Leadership" and "The Importance of People Skills." Using humor and anecdotes to share his insights and expertise, Tom goes to the core where change can occur, dramatically affecting the bottom line of a company, the outlook of an individual or the success of a team.
Organizations now face an uphill battle to attract and retain qualified personnel. The existing definition of leadership no longer works. To retain and motivate today's employees requires new corporate cultures. A high impact session with Tom Champoux will generate value and results for everyone.
AT&T, Bancorp Hawaii Inc., The Boeing Company, Carnation/Nestlé, Cytec Fiberite, Foodservice Consultants Society International, National Association of College and University Business Officers, National Association of College and University Food Service, Royal Bank of Canada, and many universities throughout the country are just a few of the clients that have engaged Tom to inspire attendees to move to the next level.
