Founder & Managing Director of Teleos Leadership Institute, executive coach, author and faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania Annie McKee advises some of the largest corporations in the world. A scholar on the cutting edge of leadership, organizational culture and change, she is dedicated to making good leaders better and world-class corporations even more successful.
Her latest book, Becoming a Resonant Leader, a follow-up to Resonant Leadership, is a hands-on guide to developing emotional intelligence, renewing relationships and sustaining effectiveness. McKee also co-authored the bestseller, Primal Leadership: Learning to Lead with Emotional Intelligence with Daniel Goleman and Richard Boyatzis. Her new book, Principles of Management, will be released in spring 2010.
With engaging speeches and interactive seminars, McKee demonstrates that “the best leaders create resonance — a reservoir of positivity that inspires passion and motivates people to perform at their best.” She believes that resonant leaders do more than simply chart a strategy or manage resources — they move people, creating a deep emotional connection that is characterized by hope, a shared belief in a compelling vision, and a sense that together, we can achieve anything.
Named by Business Week as “The high priestess of executive coaching” and as one of the 100 Best Leaders of 2005, she works closely with senior management teams at international firms such as Reuters, UniCredit Banca, Starbucks and Merrill Lynch.
