Leadership Authority Patrick Lencioni To Give Keynote Address At CBT Automotive Conference

Patrick Lencioni, one of the world’s best known writers and speakers on business leadership and management, will serve as a keynote speaker at the Feb. 9-11, 2016 CBT Automotive Sales, Service and Marketing Conference & Expo hosted by CBT Automotive Network.

Lencioni has authored 10 business books that have sold more than 4 million copies worldwide in 25 languages, with titles such as “The Advantage,” “The 5 Dysfunctions of a Team” and “The Four Obsessions of an Extraordinary Executive.” He also has written for or been interviewed by publications ranging from The Wall Street Journal to Harvard Business Review, USA Today to Inc. magazine.
A former management consultant, he subsequently founded San Francisco-based The Table Group, an organizational consulting and training firm.

Lencioni will be the keynote speaker on Wednesday, Feb. 10 at the CBT conference, which will bring together the retail automotive industry’s top leaders for more than 65 highly topical general and breakout sessions. The conference will be held at the Omni Hotel at CNN Center in downtown Atlanta. For more information, seehttps://www.cbtconferenceandexpo.com.

“Our conference will be unique in that it offers valuable new approaches and guidance to every level of a dealership, while many other conferences in the marketplace focus only on top management or a single activity such as marketing or fixed operations,” said Jim Fitzpatrick, founder and CEO of CBT. “The breadth of our conference’s agenda will definitely live up to its name.”
