Speaking Topics

WHAT’S YOUR THREE-BLOCKS LONG?

How Will You Be Remembered?

Jeanne learned about humanity in business by watching her Dad in his Buster Brown shoe store in Des Plaines, Illinois.  He “shoe’d” a generation of children, and their children’s children, and the memory of his care for not only for the tiny little feet, but for moms and legions of families he cared for over the years, earned him a place in the story of their lives.  So much so, that when he retired a line of people THREE-BLOCKS LONG stood to tell him how buying shoes would never be the same. The foundation of “Experience” is MEMORY creation. The admired companies start here. They focus on how their people, actions and overall behavior of their company establishes how they’ll be remembered. Knowing how you want people to remember you, building how you will deliver those memories, and then living those characteristics and behaviors yields what Jeanne Bliss describes as prosperity of the human spirit and financial prosperity.

In this keynote the audience will learn both the art and science of delivering memories that will make people stand in line for your experience, your product and your people. Learn how to make memory creation the currency of your brand, and how to elevate your company to delivering moments that pull people toward you and make your people into MEMORY MAKERS.

HUMANITY IN BUSINESS

Show the Best Version of Yourself to the world

“Experience” without HUMANITY is just a bunch of tactics. This keynote is a fast-track lift-off for your customer experience efforts inspiring your audience to include the often-overlooked critical element of transformation: understanding the human at the end of your decisions.  The most admired companies who earn ardent admirers and organic growth angst over who these people are, how they live their lives, and understand their goals. They build respect, honor and trust into their operating model and with their people. And they are celebrated for how they show up as people, and for the care, the thoughtfulness and the humanity that they have woven into their operating model.

In this keynote, adapted from Jeanne’s book, Would You Do that To Your Mother?!, you work with Jeanne in collaboration to customize your content for your audience.  Together you select the case studies in each of the four areas that define the lives of their customers.

Making Your Event Sing…Together.

Transforming and changing takes courage and action. Inspiring people to transform comes from real-world story-telling pulled deep from within, about the joy and sweat of doing this work. And a heart that’s lived to tell about it.

In me, you have 35 years of only focusing on how to lead an organization to drink from the well of growth that comes from honoring customers and employees’ lives. 25 years as the senior leader leading ‘experience’ and 12 years guiding leaders around the world on leadership to earn admirable, can’t-get-enough-of-a company kind of growth.

You have my experience, that comes from delivering 2,000 speeches and workshops for nearly every business vertical in both business to business and consumer to business companies on leadership bravery that earns advocates both inside and outside of your business.

And my unwavering commitment of Italian passion that I won’t rest until I get the content right for you.

When we work together my contract begins waaaay before the event and continues after.
Because I want to ensure that the learning that we get started has legs. That your audience takes what they hear and can make it their own.
