Engaging, entertaining, and thought-provoking; these are the things that people say about Gary when they hear him speak.  Storytelling has long been a cornerstone for Cherokee and other American Indian cultures.  Gary combines stories, both traditional and modern, with vital information from current business research to give you what you and your attendees, employees, or executives need in order to increase performance in their organization. 

Whether you need a speaker for a business meeting, a presenter for sessions for your conference, or a keynote speaker, Gary has a presentation that can meet your needs.  If you are looking for a longer session, then you might wish to consider booking him for a Strategic Executive Briefing, where he will spend up to 4 hours with your top executives discussing the dynamics of the Seven Elements of High Performance™ as they apply to your organization.  Gary is also available for conducting entire one- or two-day retreats. 

Topics from Personal Responsibility, the importance of Trust, or the necessity of having a highly focused and committed senior team, all of Gary’s presentations are based on the Seven Elements of High Performance™, the high-performance model that he discovered after three years of research, and which has been adopted by the US Navy’s Center for Naval Leadership.  A powerful model that applies to any organization or industry; Gary can easily craft a presentation to meet your needs.

All of our presentations are based on the Seven Elements of High Performance™.  This model is very robust, and is applicable to any organization or industry.  We have some prepared programs available for you to choose from and we tailor them to fit your unique situation, or we can easily craft a presentation to meet your specific needs.

Presentation Topics for Keynotes, Meetings and Other Events

These presentations are approximately 60 minutes in length

 

The Seven Elements of High Performance™ — Based on 3 years of research, this presentation is a brief overview of each of the Seven Elements and how they work together to achieve high performance.   Along with explaining the model, Gary shares some stories to help illustrate some of the Elements. This presentation is ideal for a slightly longer time frame of up to 75 minutes, and is based on the book, Leadership Lessons From the Medicine Wheel: The Seven Elements of High Performance. 

Your Title Says “Leader” But Is Anyone Following?™ — This presentation takes a fresh, upbeat, and somewhat humorous look at the new role of leadership, its value in achieving organizational high-performance, and what Leaders must focus on to be successful. 

Who’s Working in Your Organization™ — Your employees make the difference in your organization’s performance, but most organizations don’t know how to get them engaged.  This presentation takes a look at what employee engagement is, its impact on organizational performance, and what leaders need to do to achieve it. 

Maybe Someday Someone Will™ — All too often we are looking for accountable, personally responsible people in our organizations, whether it is work, social, community, or family oriented.  Maybe someday you will find them ... you hope.  But, of course, you need them today.  Will you be the someone who finds personally responsible people for your organization and says today is the day?  Gary shares with you three poignant and impactful stories that will help you make today be that someday. 

This presentation is ideal for a shorter time frame of from 20 to 40 minutes.

In Quest of a Vision™ — Leadership is about creating emotional connections, and your organization’s Vision is what must inspire them.   But vision statements on posters and wallet cards won’t do that.  This presentation  is designed for senior executives, and shares what will give their organization a sustainable, long-term strategy for impacting the bottom line and achieving their organization’s goals. 


Great Retreat Topics

These presentations are best if given 2 to 3 hours

Attitude Matters — This is a highly interactive presentation that is great at encouraging discussions among participants in groups at tables.  This program reminds us that only when we Accentuate the Positive can we achieve the things we want for our organizations and in our lives.

It’s All About Style — This presentation focuses on Putting People at the Center and teaches participants how to build relationships with their employees, teams, or customers.  This presentation is highly interactive and provides an overview of behavioral styles based on the DiSC® model.  A DiSC® Classic Preview is included as part of this program. 


Strategic Executive Briefings

Briefings are 3 to 4 hours in length, and are intended for top level executives and managers

Building a Culture of High Performance — You can cut costs, you can increase marketing, but until you build a high-performance culture, your organization won’t achieve its best.  In fact, without a high-performance culture, all your other efforts may never give you any of the results you desire at all.  This presentation moves from the theoretical to the practical, allowing participants to look at applicability to their organization.

The Power of One Voice — Creating a high performance organization begins at the top, and if everyone at the top isn’t onboard and committed to a clearly defined Vision, then achieving high performance will remain elusive.  Unfortunately, most senior teams, while comprised of great individuals, aren’t always clear or in agreement about where the organization needs to go.  This presentation reviews what must be done to achieve that clarity and commitment by the senior team and why it is so vital.
