Discover how to craft an opening that not only will keep the audience's attention but enhance the learning process as well. Join Patrick Donadio as he shares his insider technique to help you craft a more dynamic and powerful opening.
1:45 - 4:00 PM Simon T. Bailey, CSP - "The Vuja De Moment: Shift from an Average Speaker to a Brilliant Speaker"
"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used to create them." That sage perspective comes from the Father of Modern Physics, Albert Einstein, and offers a practical explaination as to why we need to shift out thinking.
The reality is that anyone and anything that has made an impact or left an undeniable imprint refused to be common. Financial markets are shifting all over the world, industries are being forced to adapt to the "New Normal", management philosophies are being re-examined for relevancy and organizations are being forced to reset, reignite and shift.
Commonality chokes creativity. Best practices must move over and give way to what are the best ideas. If you practice the way everyone else practices that doesn't mean you are going to get the same results. You deny yourself and your business from discovering how to fail forward.
Creativity and innovation are born in the womb of adversity and ambiguity. As a result, businesses and people must adapt the mindset and behavior to embrace disruptive shifts. They must expand the knowledge bandwidth of men and women to create the future.
In one of Simon's favorite programs, you will be invited to open your minds, roll up your sleeves, and engage your mind. You will be immersed into exercises that will become your action plan to ensure that the learning conversation lives on.
At the end of this session, participants will engage and...
* Take action by learning the important difference between Deja vu and Vuja De.
* Take action by using the Vuja De creativity tool in their daily business.
* Take action by galvanizing yourself and your organization to celebrate failure and risk.
* Take action by discovering the 7 steps to shifting your business and your life from average to brilliant.
