In 1966, Texas entrepreneur Paul J. Meyer founded Leadership Motivation, Inc. LMI was originally designed as a sales division for marketing management and leadership development programs.
By 1970, Meyer's products were permanent fixtures in the personal and management development marketplace. LMI - now Leadership Management, Inc. - grew at a rapid pace. LMI president David Byrd and other company executives discerned the marketplace need for strategic planning and methods, including a common sense approach to planning and a new focus on effective, ethical leadership.
LMI's process development specialists set about developing a complete solution to organizational planning and development. The result is the unique LMI Strategic Development Process.
The Process itself created a paradigm shift which moved LMI to the center of the organizational development and planning marketplace. Today, LMI's aim is to develop effective leaders and organizations through the implementation of a unique strategic development process. As the LMI concept has spread worldwide, LMI processes and materials are now translated into more that 23 languages, and marketed in more than 60 countries around the globe.
