  • Deep performance
    Be the best of the best
    For leaders, sales and marketing teams, operational teams and general team performance
    High performance has its place in an organisation and deep down, we all need and want to perform and to be part of a high-performing, winning team. However, research highlights the stark reality, that not everyone can be, or wants to be, a high performer. However, we can all be deep performers!
    This topic explores the power of deep performance. You'll gain insights into the simple lessons and habits of the best of the best, from business leaders, the GOATs (that's Greatest of All Time for the uninitiated!) and the uncompromising world of fighter pilots, and how to apply them in your business.
    In this session you will learn:
    • The trust-based "nameless and rankless" methods used by fighter pilots globally to deliver exceptional outcomes and a win rate of 98%.

    For sales. Productivity, engagement, resilience, agile ways of working and change management
    The world around you is accelerating. We look at emerging research on how organisations can take advantage of disruption to not only keep pace with change, but to accelerate ahead of it. We've all heard the phrase "We need to buy time"? Well unfortunately you can't! In an accelerating world, mastering the time you have is fundamental to success.
    If we can't buy more time, how do we create it? The GID mindset is a way of getting your people to think fast and work in unprecedented synchronicity - it's the future for humans to work in the era of digitalization and automation. It's about focus, getting "it" done rather than "things" or "stuff "done.
    In this session you will learn:
    • The value of sustained high performance (or "deep" performance) for you, your team and your customers.
    • A simple four step structure that helps you "think quick" and create velocity to gain the competitive edge.
    • Keep it simple. How to create more time in your day through greater alignment in thought, action and impact.
    • The "GID" mantra and why focusing on big picture outcomes rather than tasks is the key to success.
    • Close the "Say-Do" gap. How to build trust by "doing" what we say we're going to do (and do the right things in the first place!)
  • Be exceptional
    How to stand out from the crowd
    For leaders, sales and marketing teams, resilience, high performing teams and change
    In a world where every brand, product and service feel the same, this session will show you the methods to stand out by becoming an exceptional organisation. The formula for driving success?

    • The optimism bias and how we unintentionally set ourselves up to fail.
    • The transformative "Three R's" three step debriefing process used by fighter pilots to drive a 98% success rate
      The art of debriefing with customers to discover their purpose, their needs, solve their problems and transition from value to invaluable.
    • The performance high – the neuroscience hack that turns failure into success and gives you a free energy boost
      Indispensable.
  • Be the organization (or person!) you can't live without
    For leaders, strategic thinking, sales and marketing, resilience, motivation and inspiration
    What's the point of every action, meeting, or product in your organisation, or to put it another way, the purpose? This keynote explores why creating purpose, understanding purpose at different levels of your business, and understanding our customers purpose is the key to becoming indispensable.
    Having a Vision, Mission and goals is one thing, helping everyone in the organisation connect to them is another.

    In a chaotic world, be the oasis of calm
    For leaders, teams, strategic planning, offsites, product launch, remote teams
    We all need clarity, especially in today's chaotic disconnected world. In the military they call it VUCA; Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. It's during these periods exceptional companies find opportunity, rally their people and shift into the new norm, at speed. We'll explore the importance of creating an execution rhythm, the concept of situationally aware thinking and how to create time to focus and collaborate.
