Working Together Without Falling Apart
Andrew Carnegie once said, “It marks a big step in your development when you come to realize that other people can help you do a better job than you can do alone.”
The best organizations are more than the sum of their parts—but why does collaboration so often fall short of its potential? In this keynote, Rob takes attendees on an engaging journey through history, inspiration, psychology, and business to explore what separates groups that simply work together from those that truly grow together.
No one achieves success alone—especially in business. Funeral homes, like all organizations, rely on strong teams and meaningful collaboration to thrive.
Author, speaker, and preneed specialist Rob Yanok understands that building and sustaining a successful team is no simple task. Even leaders who have reached the highest levels in their field often struggle to recreate what made their teams successful. In his practical, down-to-earth style, Rob shares proven principles of collaboration, team building, and working together—principles that apply to organizations of all sizes and structures.
Your most valuable resource is the people you work with. Now more than ever, effective leadership requires being both a strong team player and a collaborator—not a competitor.
