Dale Collie speaks from experience! His programs are reinforced with compelling, personal stories forged through years of military service and corporate leadership. Awarded the Purple Heart for combat wounds as an infantry company commander, he took his experience into the corporate arena where his training as a US Army Ranger paid off in success after success. Fast Company recognizes Dale as one of America's 'Fast 50' innovative leaders.
In addition to the traditional leadership training gained in the military, Dale learned how to get a vision for success during his year-long recovery from combat wounds. Perseverance took on a whole new meaning as he gained a waiver to stay on active duty as an amputee (an almost impossible task at the time). Through all of this, he learned how to motivate others and teach the specific steps needed to achieve in the face of great obstacles. Teaching as West Point polished his skills and prepared the way for later success.
Corporate leadership responsibilities tempered these abilities as Dale used Ranger tactics and military strategies to overwhelm the competition. In one Fortune 500 company, he led the effort to overcome geographical and logistical obstacles to break a competitor's monopoly and eventually acquire 100% of the market. In another Fortune 500 company he used more of his military experience to fight off two attacks from off shore and grew market share from 35% to 85% in just two years.
Later, all of these skills were put to use in leading a bankrupt charity to become a $37 million operation in just seven years. The process included implementation of "lean operations principles" domestically and starting successful businesses in Eastern Europe.
Dale now invests his full-time efforts in helping organizations that want to build courageous leaders and businesses. He is author of Frontline Leadership: Building Courageous Leaders and Winning Under Fire (McGraw-Hill) which reveals a number of US Army leadership and communications strategies that corporations can use to overcome serious obstacles involving workplace stress, competitive advances and personnel productivity situations.
