"Your session was unlike anything I expected and much more than I expected. It’s highly unusual to have a speaker get an audience so engaged and participating so early."

"One thing I liked about our experience is you don’t offer a “10 steps to success” or remember these three points and life is good, you really got us to go deeper than that. We got to see how we’re getting in our own way and you showed us how our circumstances or environment don’t have to dictate our results."

"Your fun, high energy, never-boring style got everyone’s attention and focus. We were on the edge of our seats!"

"I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you as a speaker. Thank you for a very fun and worthwhile evening."

Thanks so much Jamie! The workshop at our conference was very well received. I actually had people coming up to me to introduce themselves afterwards who said they would never, ever had the guts to do that before your presentation. Wow! You had a big impact.

Boost the energy and value of your next event with a leadership experience!

Looking for a great speaker to add great value and energy to your conference, client appreciation event or group meeting?

Join the thousands of people who have enjoyed a memorable, engaging experience while taking critical steps to grow their leadership (and their careers). I combine my light-hearted approach to presentations and workshops with a healthy dose of practical application.

My roll-up-your-sleeves approach has participants “doing” (and learning) a lot. I also use an effective blend of storytelling, humour and down-to-business exercises to inspire and motivate change (no stuffiness factor here).

The offerings vary from brief energizers to the more extensive components of The Accelerated Leader Program™. They each address relevant challenges faced by new and emerging leaders today.

The Topic Most Requested by Clients!

Breakaway!

Reaching for big goals and taking on brand new challenges are two of the most common situations facing Emerging Leaders. Most don’t do as well as they could because they’re limited by what they think leadership is all about.

The good news is that many of the common myths and assumptions about what it takes to lead are false. In this “interactive keynote”, I’ll bring the often exclusive view of leadership back down to earth where it belongs. I’ll also give you the essential tools and perspectives needed to break the dam on the results you and your company are capable of.

Here’s what we’ll cover:

1. Tame the #1 factor that can squash peak performance. Once you understand how this works, you’ll never look at “taking chances” the same way again. Sadly, many don’t have this insight. They get stuck and don’t flourish as a result.

2. Build the crucial muscle all great leaders use but 98% ignore. Although many are aware of this, its impact is usually misjudged and its potential rarely captured. It’s one of the most empowering aspects of leadership available to you. He’ll show you why.

3. Become skilled at uncovering and eliminating leadership inhibitors. As people, we’re wonderfully creative at coming up with reasons and excuses that stop us from reaching for what we really want. You’ll see how to get past these barriers for good.

4. Commit to the only thing that will produce the results you want. All the strategizing, discussing, planning, pontificating and clarity are worthless without this. With the other essential secrets in hand, this element will be easier to master than ever before.

Format:

If you or your organization is serious about fostering personal leadership and creating expanded results then this presentation will accelerate the process. Expanded Results is delivered in Jamie’s popular “roll-up-your-sleeves” keynote formats. Thirty, sixty and ninety minute versions are available.
