After working with leaders from organisations over the world, I have discovered a proven way to make you the leader that everyone gives their best for. It can be implemented quickly and easily, by unleashing the knowledge you already have.
The underlying principles were initially developed in the creation of a new global bank, UBS. This transformation is now a Harvard Case study. They were then honed to a set of just 3 steps any leader, anywhere, in any organisation can implement to be more successful.
This has been delivered to small groups of top leaders to audiences of over 1000.
Professor Chris Roebuck has helped over 5000 leaders unleash their potential; from investment bankers to clinicians, finance directors to HR teams, retail in USA to the UAE Prime Minsters Office, and from leaders of the Chinese Space Programme to the Red Cross.

PROFESSOR CHRIS ROEBUCK – INSPIRATIONAL NEW APPROACH FOR PERSONAL, TEAM AND ORGANISATIONAL SUCCESS
Once they do by using simple actions they can quickly transform performance. This adds investor value, serves customers better, builds the brand and boosts bottom line by 10% + at no cost and even supports effective risk management and cost efficiency.
To develop this new approach to success Professor Chris Roebuck unique experience has been built up over 35 years during which he has been a successful : Corporate leader : Developing leaders and leadership in major global organisations and SMEs to enable both personal and organisational success. Eg His work in UBS as Global Head of Talent & Leadership is part of a Harvard Case Study.

Thought leader : being regularly on the list of HR Most Influential Thinkers and Visiting Professor of Transformational Leadership at Cass Business School in London researching what delivers success.
Military leader : Serving as a military officer leading and inspiring people in challenging environments via a “serve to lead” ethos.
Executive coach and mentor : helping senior executives be more successful across as range of different sectors. This unique experience has enabled Professor Chris Roebuck develop an innovative, entrepreneurial and highly effective new approach for leaders and organisations to achieve success : I CARE Leadership.
Chris shows how simple, practical day to day actions can be taken to quickly deliver real improvements at all levels; individual, team and organisation. Those attending can then immediately make a real difference implementing simple actions based on their own experience. For example one organisation who implemented I CARE Leadership increased the number of staff happy to recommend it as “a great place to work” to friends or family in 2 years from 40% to 82%, and increased revenue by 40%.
Professor Chris Roebuck first book on leadership published in 2000 took this approach and was translated into 11 languages as a result. When Global Head of Leadership at UBS, 70,000 staff & 100 countries, his team helped the bank transform organisational performance to increase profitability by 235%, market capitalisation by 50% and win awards.
