STEVE GILLILAND If You Take Care Of People, The Business Will Follow
Steve Gilliland, CSP, is one of the most in-demand and top-rated speakers in the United States and Canada. Steve's motto is "If you take care of people, the business will follow." Implementing this principle, he has helped people grow their businesses and expand their lives by teaching them to rethink their work, their relationships and themselves. Steve launched his full-time speaking career and built a multimillion-dollar company on the same philosophy he expounds to his audiences. If you continually learn more about your company, your industry, your customer and yourself, you will always be a leader. You will be purpose-driven rather than process-driven, and you will make a difference. Steve Gilliland learned great compassion for people and commitment to a hard-work and balanced-life ethic at the knee of his highly principled Christian mother.

Steve Gilliland's audiences and clients are a Who's Who list of American businesses and nonprofit organizations. He speaks to more than 250,000 people annually and influences the lives of millions through his keynote speeches, books, CDs and DVDs. An extensive array of these products has been utilized by small businesses, Fortune 500 companies, U.S. government agencies, churches, school districts and nonprofit organizations. Speaking the language of active business leaders, Steve Gilliland's new book, Mum's The Word, identifies eight lessons in leadership.
