Your results will be the proof and you can’t get those results alone. You need your team, and you need your team to willingly follow you into the next program delivery or organization transformation.

Beyond The Vision Board

Crafting a personal strategic plan for success 

Leaders know the importance of strategic planning for their organizations, but how many of us think about conducting a strategic plan for our life? Sure, we do vision boards and think about ‘what’s going to change this year’ but many of us don’t go through a full analysis of what we want for our future and how we’re going to get there. It’s time we become invested in our personal goals, beyond vision boarding. Here attendees learn how to breathe life into their visions, so the visions don’t get stuck on the wall.

This discussion helps you tie together the many layers of who you are so you can design a career accordingly.

Change is not the only constant – aversion to change is as well. The success of your company’s new transformation initiative hinges on proactively addressing this aversion in a way that gets your team on board rather than alienating them.

Thriving Through Transition

Connecting to Your Why Amid Change 

The only constant is change. In the corporate landscape it’s something we can be assured of. So why is it that we fight it so much? It’s usually because you can’t see, or no one has communicated, why you’re doing it and what it really means for you. During this discussion, we’ll dive into finding your why and the benefits to you when you’re having trouble connecting to your organization’s new change initiative.

FAQs

  • Do you customize?

    Absolutely! In fact, I encourage it to ensure your audience receives the most out of the experience you are creating. Build upon one of my existing talks or we can partner to design a completely tailored discussionlet’s work together to achieve your event goals. 

  • How long are your presentations?

    My customized presentation will be designed to fit your available time from 30 minutes to three days. I also understand that the needs of any seminar or event can change and am flexible enough to adapt my segment accordingly. My goal is to help your event reach its full potential, whether speaking in person or as a virtual keynote speaker. 

  • How can you effectively address so many different types of groups?

    The fact that I’ve addressed and worked with a wide range of industries, companies and leaders is a huge part of my value to your organization. While every group is different and has unique needs, I have found that we also face similar challenges. In my areas of expertise, I bring the best of “what works” from other industries to your group. 

  • How can we get extra value by engaging you?

    Hiring me as a keynote? Have me do a breakout session at the same event. This gets you a big discount on the second presentation and saves you on additional travel and other expenses. Whenever possible, I can also create a customized pre-or post-event webinar to give you and your audience extra value. 

  • Do you really give us FREE books?

    I sure do! You get 50 copies of one of my best-selling self-discovery journal, “Self-Discovery for the Evolving Leader” with each paid engagement. These can be used as giveaways for the attendees, door prizes, sign-up premiums, or even as part of the centerpiece at your banquet or luncheon. These books will save you a small fortune on “throwaway” flowers and balloons and give your attendees a valuable leadership gift. If you want to buy more copies so everyone gets one, I give really large discounts for bulk purchases.
