Seth Kahan Presents at British Columbia Management Consulting Conference

Executive change expert, Seth Kahan, presented a keynote address at Consulting Conference 2011 in Victoria, British Columbia, sharing strategies and tactics for business and management consultants to succeed in today’s difficult marketplace.

Bethesda, MD, May 25, 2011 --(PR.com)-- Seth Kahan led a keynote address on the theme of “Collaboration and Innovation on Leading Change” at the Institute of Certified Management Consultants of B.C. (CMC-BC) Consulting Conference 2011 on Thursday, May 5 in Victoria, British Columbia.

Management consultant Seth Kahan is a world-class authority on change leadership. He has worked with top-level executives in companies that include World Bank, Peace Corps, Prudential Retirement, as well as over 40 associations and public sector agencies. His book, “Getting Change Right: How Leaders Transform Organizations from the Inside Out” is a Washington Post bestseller and identified by American Express OPEN Forum as a Top 20 of 2010. Kahan’s address covered key concepts drawn from his book, including a new view of leadership communication that moves from a transactional view of information exchange to a collaborative construction of shared understanding.

He discussed two critical items consultants are facing today: 1) organizational transformation and 2) growing your professional practice. Insights were shared on patterns in a continuously disruptive world with ways to anticipate the foreseeable future to address customer needs and business challenges and identify emerging trends and innovations.

“All change is social,” says Kahan. “It happens person to person. It’s not about project plans. It’s about identifying, energizing, and activating your most valuable players. It’s about engagement: doing the right thing for the organization + doing the right thing for the individuals = generating value for the organization and generating value for the individuals.”

In addition, Kahan shared 4 keys to growing your practice with an overview of free and fee-based resources available on his website to help consultants improve their effectiveness. He also discussed details about his award-winning mentor program, SethMentor.com.

Kahan has been acknowledged as an expert and exemplar in change leadership and coached people for personal and professional growth since 2002. He was the first in the world to be certified by Alan Weiss – recognized as the global thought leader in successfully running a consulting practice - to provide the full set of Weiss' Mentor Mastery services. Weiss has created the most comprehensive mentoring community in the world, which includes several hundred active participants who meet regularly online and face-to-face to improve each other’s professional skills.
