Sandy’s Bio
Dr. Gluckman builds powerful leaders and managers by teaching them how to interact with, and speak to employees, using skills that are characteristic of great leadership. She has a masterful talent for teaching leaders the behavior and communication skills that will build an organization powered by employees who have spirit and spunk, are motivated to deliver exceptional performance and whose service converts every customer into a brand ambassador.
Her highly innovative leadership development methodology, called Spirited Economics™. has shifted thousands of leaders and teams in the USA, France, England, Germany, Australia and South Africa, from mediocrity to greatness. Spirited Economics™ is an unparalleled approach to leadership and organizational development based on educating leaders how to mobilize the spirit of their employees in such a way that spirit becomes a quantifiable business and financial asset. This approach is based on Sandy's extensive research and experience which has shown that the human spirit, when consciously and skillfully applied to business goals, will have a remarkable impact on the organization's culture and economic performance. It is the strategic application and measurement of leadership and employee spirit that makes what Sandy does so unique.
The need for renewed leadership and employee spirit is greater than ever before. To quote from a recent article written by Sandy, 'We are in the midst of a great transformation in corporate leadership. The current economy has created a gamebreaking opportunity for organizations to excel and show what they are capable of achieving. This can only happen if their leaders understand what it takes to be a great leader and are prepared to acquire new skills for the new realities.'
Sandy works with leaders in the private and public sectors, in the service, sales, manufacturing, wholesale and retail industries. She has great expertise working with integrating cultures in mergers and acquisitions assisting leaders in shortening the transition, rapidly stabilizing the organization and protecting the bottom line.
Dr. Gluckman is the author of a groundbreaking book "Who’s in the Driver’s Seat?: Using Spirit to Lead Successfully". This practical, hands-on book is the culmination of vast experience and research. In this book, she describes the specific behavior and communication skills practiced by great leaders whose teams deliver exceptional results. Several new "Who’s in the Driver’s Seat?" titles are in the works, applying the principles of Spirited Economics™ to customer service, marketing, decision-making and innovation.
