Keynote Topics:

Attendees will learn how to create an ownership culture where every employee wants to invest their best daily and own the outcomes.

WHY IT MATTERS

At work, we use phrases like “we want you to buy in” or “we just need you to own it.” What exactly that means looks different to everyone. This message brings objectivity to those subjective ideas.

With enthusiastic wit and wisdom, Greg uses his two decades of real estate investing as the setting to reveal the FIVE

ATTRIBUTES OF AN OWNER.

Every workplace has people who think and act like Owners, Renters, or Vandals. Owners make big commitments, continually increase value, reach for responsibility, include others, and see the big picture.

Shaping an environment, whether in-person or remote, where everyone wants to invest their best daily transforms culture!

This message equips you with language, understanding, and tactical next steps.

SHAPING SOLUTIONS

  • Understand how the Five Ownership Attributes enable success and fulfillment.
  • Learn the two enduring metrics of commitment.
  • Discover how to persistently add value, regardless of your position in your work life.
  • Understand how to strategically foster inclusion throughout an organization
  • Grasp why Vandals are enabled to remain in an organization.
     

Attendees will learn how to love obstacles, thrive under pressure and embrace the one crucial characteristic for succeeding when change unexpectedly occurs.

WHY IT MATTERS

There are three unique elements that create rapids in a river: Pressure, Obstacles and Terrain Change. Those same three appear with force in our work environments today, instigating change. They can crush us or create an adventure. Staying in the raft and navigating the difficulties they each create takes skill, teamwork and perspective.

There are two aspects to the river: Above and below the surface. The same is true with us. What’s going on around us and what’s transpiring inside of us when change is disrupting our lives. This message will also offer discernment for addressing both.

With enthusiastic wit and wisdom, Greg brings alive the white water experience with his raft on stage with him. The river is just like work. It continually flows with unforeseen treachery and offers new challenges daily.

Adding to the fun and engagement, he gives away the raft at the end of the message.

SHAPING SOLUTIONS

  • Learn how to make pressure work for you.
  • Gain an accurate perspective for loving obstacles.
  • Learn how to hold onto hope when the bottom drops out.
  • Understand how to combat worry.
  • Solve the right problem, whether outside or inside of ourselves.

Talent FAQ's

Speaker fees can vary depending on factors such as expertise, demand, and event specifics. While some speakers may charge a flat fee for their services, others may have hourly rates. It’s best to discuss fee structures directly with the speaker or their representative to understand the pricing model.

Keynote speeches typically range from 30 to 90 minutes, with the duration determined by the speaker’s expertise, the event’s agenda, and audience preferences. Keynote speeches often include a combination of inspirational stories, practical insights, and actionable advice tailored to the event’s theme or objectives.

The scale of the event and audience size can indeed impact a speaker’s fee. Larger events with a broader reach or higher attendance may command higher fees due to increased exposure and demand. Conversely, smaller events or niche audiences may offer opportunities for more flexible pricing arrangements.

Travel expenses such as transportation, accommodation, and meals are typically negotiated separately from the speaker’s fee. These costs vary depending on the speaker’s location, travel distance, and event duration. It’s important to clarify travel arrangements and expenses during the booking process to avoid misunderstandings.

Many speakers require a deposit to secure a booking, with the remaining balance due closer to the event date. Deposits are often non-refundable and serve as a commitment from both parties. It’s advisable to discuss deposit requirements and payment terms with the speaker or their representative when finalizing the booking.

  • Virtual speaking appearances are a cost-effective alternative to high speaking fees, often 10-50% cheaper than in-person rates.
  • There is typically no difference in fee for a 15-minute speech versus a 60-minute speech.
  • Some motivational speakers are open to discounting their fee if hired for more than one event by the same organization.
  • When browsing speakers, consider their location to keep travel costs down.
  • Personal connections to your organization or event location can increase your chances of securing a renowned speaker.
  • Be upfront about your needs and expectations to ensure a successful partnership.
  • Speaker bureaus like Speakers Inc help guide you through the booking process to negotiate the best deal with favorable terms.
