Is our 24/7, more-faster-now
culture eating us alive...or setting us free? New York Times
bestselling author, inductee into the Speaker Hall of Fame and
Olympian, Vince Poscente has the answer.
Give your audiences an invigorating
perspective that reveals:
- Innovation
at Work - audiences learn how to innovate in any business
situation using Poscente's recreational skier to Olympian in
four years model.
- Competitive
Advantages - you will internalize a powerful change in how to
compete using the approach "Do what the competition is not
willing to do."
- Leadership
for the Self - high speed results are possible in cultures that
foster an attitude of "Owning the solution."
- Speed of
Execution - learn from The Age of Speed's "Jet Profile" where
employees and companies embrace Agility, Aerodynamics and
Alignment.
- Taking
Control - with an infectious energy, warmth and humor, Poscente
delivers an experience that translates into an empowered
audience.
Vince Poscente used his unique
perspective on business and speed to reach the gold medal round of
the Olympic speed-skiing competition only four years after deciding
to compete - with no previous racing experience. With every effort
concentrated on achieving his own top speed, he began to notice the
pervasive and defining influence speed has in all our lives.
Unraveling the notion that in
today’s world we need to slow down, Poscente illustrates why
harnessing the power of speed is the ultimate solution for those
seeking less stress, less busyness, and more balance. He combines
lessons from his remarkable Olympic experience with insights from
his upcoming book, The Age of Speed, to inspire even the most
resistant individuals to embrace speed. With his infectious energy,
warmth, and humor, Vince’s keynote leaves audiences energized and
excited about getting fast results.
Organizations and individuals that
are going through major change at a rapid-fire pace will especially
benefit from Vince’s message. “Focusing on change alone is a
mistake. Let’s redirect our focus on embracing the speed in our
more-faster-now culture. You don’t cope with change...you embrace
it. What is critical is the next level...not coping with speed but
harnessing it. Execution is not about what to do…it is about how to
do it…that’s what creates innovative execution.”
Vince Poscente offers an
INVIGORATING PERSPECTIVE that will leave you SEEKING SPEED, not
running from it – CREATING IT, not fearing it.
