Alain Beland

Owner - Founder at Absolute Leadership

Ottawa, Canada

I left a 19 year career in law enforcement in 2019 to pursue my dreams. During my career I’ve seen atrocious decisions made by leaders due to a lack of understanding, knowledge, training and education in the field of Leadership. Throughout the years bad leadership cost millions of dollars, reduced performance, created unnecessary conflicts in the workplace, created a “collecting a pay cheque” culture, low employee retention driving up costs in training new employees, low morale and sick leave which lowered productivity, lower productivity translated in loss of profits, mental health issue at all level of the organization.

That’s when I realized that all great things come from great leadership. I’ve found a way that I can truly help people thrive and make a positive impact on the world by creating incredible leaders and an unstoppable work culture that increases profit, productivity, morale, employee retention while decreasing conflict and health issues in the workplace.

I’ve been studying Leadership for the past 24 years and had the opportunity to test what I’ve learned through my studies and my work in law enforcement. I’ve come up with an all inclusive program that is proven to work in some of the most extreme and stressful situations and for any type of leadership positions. The program is made of training, coaching and consulting components. It includes concepts, habits, tools, strategies and tactical approaches. No more paying for three different services looking for one result: Absolute Leadership.

5 STEPS to unleash an unstoppable and powerful work culture - Step 4
LinkedIn
March 07, 2020
Acquire the knowledge required to change the culture. Assess what is needed of you, what worked and what hasn't. Accept that you may have been doing it wrong all along and the changes that are required. Adapt your leadership approach and style to reflect new knowledge, the team's needs and to produce maximum results. Once you have adapted to the team, you need to provide positive and negative feedback. You need to learn how to use both proficiently for maximum impact and results.

5 STEPS to unleash an unstoppable and powerful work culture - 1 & 2
LinkedIn
January 30, 2020
STEP 1 – CLARIFY

Before you can be an absolute leader, you need to be clear on what it means to you to be a leader, why you wish to be a stronger leader, the results you want and the type of leader you wish to be. You need to understand the group that you lead, who the individuals are, why they come to work in the morning, what motivates them to perform and what they are looking for from their experience while working for you. Without these questions answered, you are flying blind. This blog covers the information you need to excel in knowing your people.

Treatments For Several Mental Health Conditions - Part 1
LinkedIn
November 25, 2019
I have researched and published articles concerning Trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The recovery from those terrible mental health issues is a long and arduous one. Several treatments are available to assist you, a friend, a spouse or a family member with trauma. Some of those treatments also applies to other mental health issues. I will start a new series of articles giving a brief overview of some of those treatments to give you an idea how they may assist you or someone you know. Enjoy!

Polyvagal Theory - Part 2
LinkedIn
November 01, 2019
The Polyvagal Theory provided us with a more sophisticated understanding of the biology of safety and danger, one based on the subtle interplay between the visceral experiences of our own bodies and the voices and faces of the people around us. It explains why a kind face or a soothing tone of voice can dramatically alter the way we feel. In short, Porges’s theory makes us look beyond the effects of fight or flight and put social relationships front and centre in our understanding of trauma.

Polyvagal Theory - Part 1
LinkedIn
October 18, 2019
The Polyvagal theory (gr. 'polus', “‘many’” + 'vagal', "'vagus nerve'") specifies two functionally distinct branches of the vagus, or tenth cranial nerve. It serves to identify the relationship between visceral experiences and the vagus nerve's parasympathetic control of the heart, lungs, and digestive tract. The vagus nerve, the longest of the cranial nerves, controls your inner nerve center—the parasympathetic nervous system. And it oversees a vast range of crucial functions, communicating motor and sensory impulses to every organ in your body.
