CRACKING THE E-CODE: UNLOCKING THE ENTREPRENEURIAL POTENTIAL IN ANY ORGANIZATION

Today’s dynamic business environment demands bold leadership, focused decision-making with 360-degree visibility, and agile teams capable of rapidly leveraging opportunities. Unfortunately, many organizations are plagued by glacial decision cycles, ineffective silo structures that kill effective collaboration and creativity and arcane talent development programs that waste human capital. The result? Staying stuck in neutral while more nimble competitors race past.

It’s time to “crack the E-Code” and unlock the latent Entrepreneurial Potential lurking within your organization today!

This high-octane keynote shares 6 mission-tested strategies to:

  • Engage and empower your team with the Entrepreneurial Mindset
  • Discover and leverage the unique strengths of each team member
  • Dramatically improve collaboration and communication across departments/divisions
  • Significantly improve the speed, efficiency and outcomes of your organization’s decision-making process.

WINNING NOT WHINING: A VICTOR’S STORY OF TRIUMPH

I share motivational and inspirational stories, lessons, and anecdotes of victory over the guilt and shame of personal trauma during my teen years, early leadership roles, serving as an elite US Army Green Beret, struggles with addiction, life as an accomplished entrepreneur, living with PTSD, and the rewards of faith and family. These presentations can be customized for audiences of all ages and maturity levels. My journey from darkness to light is emotional, funny, and inspiring. Some audience members are stunned, others cry, and many cheer as I relate my stories of tragedy to triumph.

LEADERSHIP LESSONS FROM A FORMER GREEN BERET

During this keynote, I share the insider secrets and the key success strategies for effective leadership from my service on A-Teams in the US Army’s elite Special Forces (The Green Berets). My stories include how I parlayed my lessons learned to build world-class businesses and become an award-winning entrepreneur. I explain that healthy and effective leadership skills are within everyone’s grasp, not exclusive to those in official command-structure roles in formal organizations. Based on my military and entrepreneurial experience building teams that outmaneuver and outperform larger, better-funded organizations, I also discuss the ideal profile of effective teams and offers tools, techniques, and resources to create and motivate teams to greatness.

NAVIGATING CHANGE & UNCERTAINTY

Change happens when the cost of the status quo is greater than the risk of change. In business, leadership, and life, change is the one constant, yet scares and paralyzes most leaders and team members. Winston Churchill famously said, “We must take change by the hand or rest assuredly, change will take us by the throat.” Audience Members Will Learn:

  • Inspiring leadership techniques that will reduce fear and increase innovation in the face of change
  • How to pursue positive change to propel them towards a life of significance and success
  • Techniques to navigate the rough waters of change and to infuse a spirit of anticipation, confidence, and excitement to any team challenge
