How to intentionally lead from the heart and boost your team’s engagement and energy

Over the past 30+ years, the one constant that I have noticed is great leaders wear their hearts on their sleeves. Their approach is: people first. They connect deeply with their team and their clients. And as a result, get in return loyalty, accountability, and increased production and less stress for their teams.

Here’s a menu you can choose from to bring more focus to your presentation:

  1. Leading with curiosity, accountability, and positivity: How to create a success-full mindset, even in difficult times.
  2. Change, what’s really getting in the way of you moving forward? Dealing with ambiguity and the “in between.” The rollercoaster ride that is/was ‘Covid’.
  3. The clarity planning tool: Simple steps to clarity and vision.
  4. Strategic practices and processes: How highly successful Intentional people start and end each day.
  5. The Resilient Leaders Toolkit: 7 essentials to re-set, re-energize and re-invent (the science and research behind successful cultures).
  6. Where to start when you are in a state of overwhelm: The simple steps to move forward in crazy times.

If you are a leader, manager, or working towards becoming one you will be on solid ground with the tools and strategies presented in this presentation.

Get ready for this interactive and lively presentation that will give you that needed boost! I will lead you through an educational, hands-on, and highly humorous ride that will re-focus, re-energize and re-invent how you see your leadership at work and at home.

This program can be delivered in the form of a keynote, workshop, or breakout session, in-person or online.

It’s time to step off the treadmill and get back to purpose-focused workplaces
The challenges most organizations face are: staff burnout, distraction, and an ongoing feeling of overwhelm. Most of them are not engaged and organizations have to face the ongoing mental health issues of their staff.

I’m on a mission to reduce busyness, absenteeism, and turnover. I deliver tools and strategies to inspire my audiences to literally take their lives back which in turn, helps the organizations they work for increase engagement, energy, productivity, and profitability.

Presentation takeaways:

  • Find the answer to the question of the century: how has “I’m so busy” become our badge of honor in our work and our lives?
  • Discover what the “being busy pace” is doing to our work and personal lives
  • Examine the costs of corporations whose teams are overwhelmed, stressed, and exhausted
  • Learn the strategies and tools to change your busy mindset to one that will inspire you and your team to thrive
  • Get instant energy from laughing throughout the presentation

This shoot-from-the-hip session is for any corporation and organization that wants to increase bottom lines, and decrease stress, exhaustion, and overwhelm.

If you’re looking to boost your team’s morale and create outstanding outcomes, this presentation is for you!

This program can be delivered in the form of a keynote, workshop, or breakout session, in-person or online.

Become a change enthusiast in ever changing times

From one of my bestselling books, I share ideas and solutions for “getting a life.” 

This eye-opening keynote presentation will get you thinking about three simple but life changing questions:

  1. Are you doing the best you can?
  2. Are you on the deferred life plan?
  3. When was the last time you did something for the first time?

Presentation takeaways:

  • Learn how to lead with more curiosity and less fear
  • Move from being “fine” and “busy” to striving and focused
  • Discover how to create as few regrets as possible
  • Take it from me… and simply choose a slice of the planet to give back
  • Determine where to start when you are in a state of overwhelm

This session is for leaders, managers, and teams who are ready to make some important changes and start thriving again.

If you and your team are ready for some powerful shifts, book this program for your next meeting. Oh, and I promise it will be the best laugh you will have in a long time.
