7 STEPS TO ACHIEVING TRUE SUCCESS

RORY ONLY ACCEPTS 30 INVITATIONS TO SPEAK EACH YEAR.

Every business or enterprise needs to have their people performing at the highest possible level. Yet, a recent study of 10,000 people reported the average employee wastes 2.09 hours each day at work on non-related job tasks.

The Average salaried employee in the US makes $39,795 per year which translates to costing a company approximately $10,396 per year per employee! PROCRASTINATION, as it turns out, is one of the most expensive, yet invisible costs to both individuals and companies worldwide.

Is it possible that this imperceptible problem is taking money out of your pocket, preventing your company from growing, or holding you back from promotion?

Strategist and business speaker Rory Vaden shares key insights and erases common misconceptions about how to overcome procrastination, creative avoidance, distraction, priority dilution, fatigue and other common day success saboteurs by building lasting self-discipline.

The stress and anxiety about all there is to do and the lack of time we have to do it can be a grinding frustration. There is a silent yet pervasive epidemic that stifles innovation, and consistently burns out our top human capital costing organizations millions of dollars in wasted time. This insidious dynamic that costs organizations millions of dollars each year is called Priority Dilution™.

Based on the insights researched and presented in New York Times bestselling author Rory Vaden Tedx talk with over 3 million views, you will get insider knowledge from him and his firm Brand Builders Group.

This program will challenge everything you know to be true about “time-management” as you will learn:

  • There is no such thing as “time-management” there is only “self-management.”
  • Why productivity in the next generation is much more about emotion than logic
  • How to move beyond urgency and importance to significance
  • Why “priorities” are a limiting paradigm relating to your time
  • If you are a “Gunslinger” or a “Worry Wart” and why rich people never pay their taxes early
  • When is the right time for patience and when is the right time for action
  • 5 permissions you need to finally be free of the pressures of productivity while getting maximum results

This Rory Vaden session will help you reduce your stress, increase your focus and most of all teach you how to MULTIPLY YOUR TIME with 3-dimensional thinking!  

[Note: This talk is available as a customized version applied directly to the following topics or themes: leadership, innovation, teamwork, performance improvement, time management, productivity or work life balance]
