Scott Mautz Speaking Topics

Becoming Mentally Stronger

Mental strength has become THE leadership superpower of our times; i.e. the ability to self-regulate your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors to achieve exceptional outcomes, despite circumstances. In this compelling keynote, the audience is introduced to this researched-backed insight, and the fact that mental strength is comprised of six “mental muscles,” six areas/tests of leadership that most directly correlate with exceptional achievement. These same areas require self-regulation skills to navigate them effectively:

  • Fortitude
  • Decision-making
  • Confidence
  • Goal-focus
  • Boldness
  • Messaging (sending the right messages of positivity/intent

The audience comes to understand it’s about managing internally, so you can lead better externally (professionally and personally), and are emotionally and intellectually engaged in how to do so. Multiple tools are introduced throughout the keynote to inspire and equip the audience to become mentally stronger.

The Feel of World Class Teams

Looking to build a highly-collaborative, high-achieving, world-class team? It comes down to how membership on that team makes you feel (i.e. the team norms and the psychological and behavioral vibe present). In this keynote, the audience learns how they can foster their own super-team by understanding and acting on the “High-Five”: the 5 most common and powerful sentiments that research shows tight-knit, top-achieving teams foster and feel:

• The ability to make an impact (including clarity of expectations/open communication) • Comfort with uncertainty/risk-taking (including change) • No fear of failure (self-confidence flourishes) • A caring culture • The will to persevere

Flourishing in Change

Change can galvanize or paralyze a company and its employees. This keynote teaches that the key to thriving (not just surviving) in change is to embrace the fundamental Change Choice (will you see change as happening to you or for you), to adopt the Change Curve (how human beings process change), and to learn how to overcome the Core Challenges of Change (including discomfort with the unknown and fear of failure, will to persevere falters, and getting stuck in old, unhelpful narratives). The audience walks away with a complete plan for successfully navigating change.

The Secret to High-Performing Organizations

This keynote reveals that the secret to the highest-performing organizations is not perks, promotions, or pay. It’s a workforce deeply engaged and motivated by leaders adept at fostering meaning, both in and at work. Research is shared that shows meaning is the motivator of our times, then the audience is introduced to “The Markers of Meaning”– specific conditions the leader can foster that create meaning in and at work:

• Working with a sense of purpose • Operating with autonomy • Fueling learning and personal growth • Creating a sense of competency and self-esteem • Working in a caring environment

Leading Brilliantly as a Middle Manager

No group has a bigger impact on transforming an organization than those who must lead from the middle of that organization. The skillset and mindset required to lead in all directions - up to the boss, down to employees, and across to peers - is like no other challenge in leadership. The keynote draws from research with thousands of successful middle managers to teach the unique challenges to overcome, as well as the skillset and mindset required to succeed.
