Keynotes

 

People talk a lot about diversity today—ethnic, gender, and income diversity. But there is an elephant in the room. A different kind of diversity exists: generational diversity. This session explores the characteristics of each generation working today and how to leverage them to be your competitive advantage. Too often we stereotype, taking mental shortcuts and profiling young or old team members. This session offers practical strategies to bring out the best in each generation.

Most company brands are set up to employ and sell to Millennials and Generation X. The new kids on the block are a population known as Generation Z—and they are a different breed of staff member and customer. Attention spans and retention spans are shorter. They grew up with a smart phone which has created a greater sense of agency and anxiety. So how do we attract them, equip them and retain them as employees and how do we reach them as consumers? This session explores both the data and the solutions for these challenges.

 
 
 

Over the last half a century, five different leadership styles became popular. But today, new team members enter with more education and a desire to be heard and not just seen. This session will train your team on a leadership approach that embraces these new dynamics while giving actionable steps along the way.

Lasting leaders differ from common leaders. They balance paradoxical traits that enable them to connect with savvy 21st century team members. This session reveals the eight paradoxes that top leaders learn to manage, complete with case studies and applications.

 
 
 

Employers have noticed a shift over the years. Team members seem to possess lower levels of resilience and resourcefulness than previous generations. Our on-demand, instant access culture has made delaying gratification difficult and quitting easy. This session provides the reasons for this drop in grit and what leaders can do with their team members to deepen resilience. It furnishes action steps for the team and action steps for managers to bring out the best in everyone. Both grit and a growth mindset can be developed. This session shows you how. 

The world’s best organizations are constantly adapting to change. Much like a sailor harnesses contrary winds to take the ship to the desired destination, effective teams flex and plan accordingly. In this talk, Tim unpacks five crucial secrets to effective change and principles to guide the process.

 
 
 

Team members don’t want to be managed, they want to be led. And they don’t want to be informed, they want to be inspired. This session teaches the disciplines of a leader who empowers team members to own the organization’s mission while cultivating a healthy team culture.

It’s been said a thousand times: Culture eats strategy for breakfast. This session teaches actionable strategies to cultivating a healthy, magnetic culture (without blowing out the budget). Attendees will learn the habits and attitudes that enable leaders—and their teams—to flourish.

 
 

From big-stage keynotes to small-group trainings, Tim’s events are custom-tailored to your organization’s needs.

Tim is currently booking live & virtual events for 2024 and 2025.
