About Bruce Sellery - Speaker on Accountability and Leadership:

Bruce Sellery knows that highly successful companies and individuals understand the power of personal accountability. He's seen it from both sides. As a brand manager at Procter & Gamble overseeing a $60 million business, Bruce was personally accountable for delivering increased market share.

As an experienced business journalist and television anchor, Bruce has interviewed thousands of CEOs, thought leaders, business analysts and authors. Throughout these interviews, it became evident that personal accountability is one of the reoccurring traits consistent among highly successful companies and individuals. During this time, Bruce developed his signature keynote 'You’re On: Capturing the Power of Personal Accountability'.

A recognized expert on the topic of personal accountability, Bruce often speaks at major events, conferences, and awards presentations. He brings his deep commitment to the subject matter, inspiring not only action, but bottom-line change.

He is currently the host of Workopolis tv on BNN. The show presents stories that help people deliver on the idea of 'Better work. Better life.' Recent topics include new approaches to balancing work and home life, team building, transformational leadership, the future of knowledge management, personal productivity, career strategy and integrating foreign-trained professionals.

Prior to his current assignment, Bruce anchored The Wrap, a key market close program summarizing the day's top stories and covering breaking after-hours news. He also spent three years as New York Bureau Chief where he reported on the U.S. markets from the NASDAQ MarketSite in Times Square.

While reporting on corporate scandals, Bruce was in the courtroom covering the trials of Bernie Ebbers and Martha Stewart. There he witnessed all too clearly what happens when corporate responsibility and personal accountability are absent. He also realized that personal accountability is not just about mitigating potential risk. It goes well beyond maximizing shareholder value, into the realm of creating a shared culture of accountability that can be a strong positive force in business, in society and in our personal lives.

Bruce’s book Moolala: Why smart people do dumb things with their money (and what you can do about it) is now available. In this book Bruce Sellery provides a simple, essential guide for those who, when it comes to managing their money, could use a spoonful of sugar to help the medicine go down.

Moolala is a mix of fun stories, real-life examples, exercises, tips and checklists all designed to help you get a handle on your money so you can live the life you want.

The book begins by looking at why smart, capable people so frequently do dumb things with their money. Insight into how this phenomenon applies to you personally will make a big difference in you becoming a smart person who does more smart things.

What Bruce Sellery Talks About:

You're On: Capturing the Power of Personal Accountability
There is tremendous uncertainty in the global economy today. That uncertainty is a huge distraction for organizations and their employees. In this climate, there is a real need for people to focus on what is within their circle of control: that is, the work that they do each and every day. This is important both for the results of the organization and for the well-being of the employees who work there.

Bruce shows people how to foster personal accountability in their work environment, broadening their sense of what they can control. This delivers results for the organization and a sense of peace and ease for staff. Even in a brutal business environment, there will be winners. The personal accountability message can improve the likelihood that you will be among them.
