Make it Remarkable: How to Turn Anything You’re Doing from Ordinary to Extraordinary.

In a world where it’s either “Differentiate or Die”, where ordinary products and services spell impending doom, and where morale levels are exceedingly low, you and your organization cannot afford to do unremarkable work. Good is no longer good enough. But how can you help your people add more remarkability to whatever they’re doing? That’s what this message is about. It’s about a simple five-step process that anyone can use at anytime to make whatever they’re doing more remarkable. And the benefit to your company will be that as buzz takes off, your marketing costs will go down, while your revenue, profits and market share go up.

Becoming an Accelerated Growth Company: The Five Decisions You Must Get Right if You Want to Deliver Double Digit Growth Year After Year

One of the mistakes that so many business leaders make is thinking that one or two things can drive growth–but that’s not true. If you focus on marketing, but your customer service or deliver systems can’t keep up, you’re in trouble. Or if you focus on executing and controlling expenses, but don’t stay on top of leadership or innovation or strategy, you’re also in trouble. In other words, to accelerate and sustain real double-digit growth, year after year, every business leader needs to pay attention to five key areas, utilizing five key strategies–all of the time. To find out what those decisions and strategies are, and how your attendees can utilize them, you’ll want this talk.

Creating Compelling Competitive Advantages: How to Continually Out-Think and Out-Maneuver Your Competition

You know you should have a competitive advantage, but how do you determine what “it” should be? And how will you know if “it” is compelling? Better yet, how will you keep coming up with new ones, since your competition is surely ready to quickly copy any significant advantage? One of the most common mistakes a lot of companies make regarding competitive advantages is thinking that they only need one and that they can ride that forever. Whereas, great companies and leaders are always thinking about and involved in creating new advantages. So, if you or your attendees would like to out-think and out-maneuver your competition, you’ll want to request this message.

Spigot: How to Attract and Retain More Customers in Any Economy

The good news about any downturn is that it always exposes weakness. For most companies, businesses and organizations, that weakness was their marketing. Or to put it in other words, most businesses were doing well for several years simply because the economy was roaring—not because they were hitting it out of the ballpark with the marketing, sales and customer service. So, if you or your attendees would like to change that and take your marketing efforts to the next level so that you’re in control and driving in a predictable number of leads and prospects, while providing remarkable customer service, then this is the message that you’ll want.

Driven: Harnessing the Power of the Ten Drivers of Accelerated Growth Companies

If you want to build an accelerated growth company, you know there’s more to it than simply coming up with a brilliant strategy or great tactics. In fact, there are plenty of businesses and organizations that have incredibly wonderful strategic plans that never seem to achieve what they set out to achieve–and clearly not at the pace they originally believed was possible. So what’s the problem? The problem is they never figured out how to harness the power of an incredibly important set of drivers that literally drive accelerated growth companies. Drivers like speed of implementation, leverage, repurposing, and love (yes, love). When you get all ten right, you can literally break through speed barriers. So if you want to build an accelerated growth company, this is the talk you’ll want.

Accelerated Time Mastery for Overworked Executives: How to Double Your Productivity While Decreasing Your Stress

If there’s one cry that every executive has it’s, “I just don’t have enough time—especially in light of all of the responsibilities I have.”  What makes this scenario even worse is that when the urgent tasks cry so loudly, then the strategic issues that senior executives need to tend to, don’t get attended to. So, if you or your attendees would like to get a better handle on your time so that you can focus on the important and strategic tasks in front of you, then this is the talk you’ll want to request. Just think of what an extra two to four or more hours per week would mean to you and your business/organization!

Remarkable Leadership: The Seven Key Practices That Great Leaders Use to Produce Extraordinary Results Through Ordinary People

No business (or organization or business unit) can consistently perform at a level beyond their leader’s ability to lead. However, most “positional leaders,” (meaning, people who have the position/title of leader) haven’t been trained in what makes someone a great leader. And even those who have, find that what got them to where they are, won’t take them to the next level. Therefore, what Bruce will do in this message is he’ll not only help you and your team understand what the seven key practices are, he’ll also help each of your attendees leave with a practical game plan for how they can become more remarkable leaders. Why? Because as John Maxwell so poignantly says, “Everything rises and falls on leadership.”
