HOW TO MAXIMIZE YOUR INDIVIDUAL PERFORMANCE, CONTRIBUTION, AND SIGNIFICANCE

The number one investment you can make is the investment in yourself. To achieve a greater level of success, you must be intentional in developing yourself mentally, physically, and emotionally. If you want more, you must become more.

The key to raising your individual performance and expanding your contributions and significance lies in your ability to master these five fundamentals:

  • Self-Awareness
  • Passion
  • Discipline
  • Coachability
  • Confidence

This can only be achieved by closing Performance Gaps (the gap between what you know and what you do). In this powerful program, Alan teaches practical strategies to heighten self-awareness, create winning habits and routines, and improve productivity.

Regardless of title or tenure, attendees walk away with actionable steps to:

  1. Align your habits with your core values and beliefs
  2. Improve your Emotional Intelligence (EQ)
  3. Develop a true winner’s mindset
  4. Learn to be present in the moment
  5. Earn confidence while maintaining humility
  6. Manage change and create a process for progress

This program is ideal for the player looking to improve individual performance and/or contributions to the team (company-wide events, all-hands meetings, teams, employees, and/or entrepreneurs).

HOW TO IMPROVE YOUR LEADERSHIP PERFORMANCE, IMPACT, AND INFLUENCE

How have some organizations been able to sustain unparalleled success while others are sporadic and inconsistent? Simple… it’s their leadership. A team will never outperform its leadership.

A leader’s primary job is to create an environment where people feel safe, included, appreciated, valued, respected, inspired, empowered, and challenged. Employees need to know they have the resources and support to star in their specific role and make a meaningful contribution to the team.

Shift your focus as a leader from what you want from your team to what you want for them… and watch things improve quickly!

The key to raising your leadership performance and amplifying your impact and influence is a direct result of how well you master these five fundamentals:

  • Vision
  • Culture
  • Servanthood
  • Character
  • Empowerment

Successful leaders create the type of high-performing culture that drives long-term results. They have a firm grasp of their identity, they uphold high standards of excellence, and they foster an atmosphere of collective accountability.

This program is vital for any leader who aspires to:

Become the leader you would want to follow
Attract, develop, support, and retain top talent
Build a championship culture (align beliefs & behavior)
Establish unparalleled trust, respect, inclusiveness, and buy-in
Coordinate everyone’s effort to produce astonishing results
 
This program is ideal for the coach looking to improve their leadership performance (C-level, executives, directors, managers, supervisors, emerging leaders).

INCREASE SALES PERFORMANCE WITH THE MINDSETS, HABITS, AND FOCUS OF WORLD CLASS PERFORMERS

No matter what your sales system is or how rich your pipeline might be, if you’re not implementing the habits that elite performers use regularly, your ability to execute and close sales will always be limited. In other words… you (and your sales) will underperform.

Finding leads, qualifying leads, following up, and servicing clients depletes us of our two most precious resources – time and energy. Filled with stories, stats, and actionable steps, Alan will share how to maximize both time and energy, as well as teach strategies for what to control, what to let go, and how to trust the process. This program is critical for anyone who wants to improve his or her sales performance.

In this session, attendees will learn the most effective strategies to:

  • Shift your mindset from selling to solving
  • Become a world-class active listener (telling is not selling)
  • Consistently create quality touches (sales is a high-contact game)
  • Learn to care more about the prospect than making the sale
  • Develop unparalleled relationships

This program is ideal for sales teams and sales leaders looking to improve their sales performance. (annual sales meetings, sales training, sales leaders, sales representatives, sales support)

A FUN WAY TO IMPROVE ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION, COHESION, AND COLLABORATION

High performing organizations know that teams that play together, stay together!

They know that team members that feel engaged make a more meaningful and measurable contribution.

They know that play is a conduit to creativity, is a proven method for improving morale and buy-in (especially with remote/hybrid workforces) and is a foundational pillar to reducing attrition and Quiet Quitting.

They also know that heightening communication, cohesion, and collaboration creates a path to higher profitability.

This interactive, team building session is a surefire way to invest in all the above. It can be used as a standalone program or as an add-on to one of Alan’s keynotes or workshops!

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.
