Turning Managers Into Leaders

Merge Gupta-Sunderji helps turn managers into leaders. A professional speaker, author, radio commentator, and consultant since 1988, Merge gives people specific and practical tools to help them achieve leadership and communication success. A leader at one of Canada's premier oil and gas companies and a Board leader at a Credit Union for a combined total of more than seventeen years, she offers a unique blend of realism and humour that consistently engages and entertains her audiences.

Previously, she was the well-known voice behind the national CBC radio column The Softer Side of Business. She's an award-winning published author, writing for many well-known organizations and publications, including the very popular Merge's Monthly Mega Minute. Why Does the Lobster Cast Off Its Shell? is her most recent book.

Merge's clients include Capital One Financial Corporation (worldwide), Shell Oil, Mercer Human Resource Consulting, Certified General Accountants' Association of Canada, QVC Inc., Honeywell, Promotional Product Professionals of Canada, and the International Association of Business Communicators.

Merge customizes every single keynote or seminar to fit the unique needs and challenges of specific audiences. Merge knows that the successful leader's toolkit contains many tools, and mastering the use of these tools requires more in-depth study and practice. So she offers several workshops and breakout sessions that focus on specific areas of challenge faced by managers as they continue their growth and development into masterful leaders. Each can be presented as a follow-up session to an opening keynote at a conference, or as a stand-alone learning workshop in an organization.

Topics:

Why Does The Lobster Cast Off Its Shell? - leadership, growth, change, transition, seizing opportunity, continuous learning
Millennials Exposed! Insights into the Psyche of a New Generation of Workers - leadership, Generation Y, managing young people, human resources of the future
How to Stop Your People From Walking Out the Door - leadership, employee retention, motivation, employee engagement
Moving From Manager to Leader: Four Essential Elements of the Leadership Journey - leadership, passion, people development, decision-making, growth
Turtle Training for the Hare: Why Slow 'n' Steady Trumps Fast 'n' Furious (leadership, strength, sustainability, productivity, passion)
