Description

Fighter pilots experience the fastest acceleration on earth. However, during training, the expression, “that pilot is all thrust and no vector,” can be heard. It describes a pilot who is going nowhere fast. That concept holds true in our lives and especially in business. We live in an age of instant information, where everything moves at the speed of light. Do you ever feel that you are going fast but getting nowhere? Accelerator Leaders learn how to focus and act so that their acceleration results in real impact. Discover how to be an Accelerator Leader to accelerate yourself, those around you and your organization. Book Review 1: "Alvin Rohrs is a remarkable leader. He "Accelerated" the growth of a small regional non-profit organization dedicated to inspiring students to improve the world through entrepreneurial action, Students In Free Enterprise (SIFE), to a place where it has become the largest organization of it's kind in the world, now known as Enactus, leveraging the resources of over 500 corporate partners, in 36 countries, engaged with over 1,700 colleges and universities, nearly 70,000 students, and impacting over a million people a year. Without Alvin at the helm of the ship, this extraordinary story of growth and contribution is impossible to imagine. Leveraging his extraordinary knowledge and experiences, Alvin is a gifted and inspiring speaker about everything from leadership, to accelerating organization and personal growth, to leading a meaningful and fulfilling everyday life. His wit, wisdom, and storytelling are second to none. I highly recommend him as a speaker extraordinaire." -- Douglas R. Conant, Former Chairman SIFE/Enactus Founder and CEO Conant Leadership; Retired CEO Campbell Soup Company; Former Chairman Avon Products Book Review 2: "Not only is Alvin Rohrs one of the most moving and powerful speakers I know he is also a great coach on what it means to be a leader and really move an organization towards success. He quickly grasps challenges and he understands people. He is perceptive and knows how to organize and motivate people to solve problems." -- Matt Blunt, 54th Governor of Missouri Book Review 3: "[His] stories themselves and [his] story telling style make this [book] a joy to read." -- Doug McMillon, CEO of Walmart
