    Anne Grady | EQ Resilience

    HOW CAN YOU BUILD RESILIENCE?

    MINDSET

    Understand your brain, your habits, and the belief systems that can both support and sabotage your resilience.

    SKILL SET
    Learn to cultivate positive emotions, make stress work for you, and engage in activities that proactively build resilience.

    RESET
    Step out of reactivity to focus on what is most important, resetting your nervous system, priorities and perspective.

    Learning Objectives
    Anxiety, stress, and burnout are at an all-time high, and if we don’t take time to reset, the physical and psychological results can be catastrophic. More than training, education, or experience, your resilience determines your success, personally and professionally.

    Fortunately, resilience is a set of skills and habits that can be learned and cultivated. Learn how to take back control, make stress work for you, and cultivate a resilient mindset, skill set, and the ability to reset.

    By the end of this Anne Grady session, employees will be able to:

      • Practice brain-based strategies to offset your negativity bias.

      • Shift the way your brain interprets and responds to stress.

      • Develop a toolbox full of resilience-building skills.

      • Utilize mindfulness to reset your nervous system.

    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.
