+ LEAD FOR IMPACT: TRANSFORMING PEOPLE INTO IMPACT LEADERS

This session confronts the common pitfalls of leadership — hesitancy, over-reliance on individual heroics, and doubts in team capability — that contribute to inefficiency and unfulfilled potential. Participants will:

  • Master the SightShift Impact Formula™ as a roadmap for leaders seeking to serve effectively and foster growth, rather than simply rescuing or directing.
  • Identify and solidify personal and professional direction to enhance concentration on what truly matters, leading to more intentional actions and decisions.

+ The Seasons of Leadership: never get stuck

This session takes participants through discovering the actions they need to take through the 4 seasons in their journey, in order to get unstuck and grow to the next level. We discuss how letting go, leaning in, taking bold action, and finding joy along the way allows them to lead effectively in any circumstance. Participants will:

  • Analyze their current situation and develop action plans for moving forward.
  • Learn to overcome the obstacles preventing them from performing at their best and with a high degree of creativity.

+ Owning your leadership development: A simple model for all

When you learn to anticipate and cooperate with the stages of your life, leadership and business, you'll never get stuck in a valley or dip longer than necessary. Participants will:

  • Assess their developmental growth journey as a leader and be inspired to courageously grow into what's next.
  • Learn a model to help others find their path of leadership growth.

* All talks can be delivered in 20 or 30 minutes and up to 90 minutes in length.


I just wanted to follow up from our Life University event and say thank you! Your keynote speech was extraordinary. Thank you for customizing it to our agents and driving the importance of embracing change. It was truly an honor to work with you and I would love to continue to work with you in the future.

We brought in Chris as a guest speaker for a private event for our clients. Chris totally rocked it and understood the vision we were going for and crafted the message around the audience’s profile/make-up. What’s great about Chris’ public speaking is it engages the audience, adds value to them, and there’s no weirdness or BS. It’s practical. Chris was also an all around pro, on-time for arrival and didn’t go over his alotted time slot. We plan on working with Chris for more speaking engagements. Hire him for your next event, you won’t go wrong.
— D.C. Joseph, Principal of Serif Creative
Chris was a joy to work with. He modified his talk to fit the needs of our team and was generous and sincere when answering questions during the Q and A. Chris gave our managers simple, concise messages that will be easily recalled when back at work. I highly recommend Chris as a speaker and group leader.
— Benjamin Reid, Manager, New Albany Branch, Columbus Metropolitan Library
Since working with Chris, I have seen marked improvement in my presentation effectiveness and feel more confident delivering my message.

Using Chris’ framework, I learned techniques for quickly establishing a connection with my audience, offering my unique insights, and sharing how we will take action.
— John Carter, President and COO, Nationwide Financial
Columbus Chapter ALA truly enjoyed your presentation. We have received incredible feedback from our membership and business partners, not just on your presentation, but also on the real life analogies you weaved into it. You definitely held our attention, as well as kept us laughing. I’m confident we all took useful leadership information away with us. We look forward to working with you in the future.
— Jennifer A. Rosengrant
You scored the highest ever scored in any of our survey results so I knew the impact you had on the team was significant and subsequently every meeting since then you continue to score the highest.
 
 

To consider:

Depending on calendar availability, Chris is willing to speak at events, public or private, anywhere in the world, and delivers at the highest level for virtual events. 

In some cases, bulk purchases of books, typically for distribution to the audience, can be substituted for a portion of the speaking fee.

Half of the speaking fee is due to hold the event on the calendar.     

The speaking fee is waived in rare circumstances that make sense for both parties.
