Janet Lapp's Presentations
|
|
Each presentation is completely customized,
which means that you don't have to choose just one topic. We will
decide together which components best fit to reinforce the objectives
of your meeting, to address the specific challenges and concerns
facing your audience, and to provide practical, take-home value.
|
Depending on need and request,
Janet's presentations will include the following points: |
1. Think Big.
The world is not changed by those who are unwilling to take risks;
it is revolutionized by big thinkers willing to create
big problems with big solutions. |

| |
2. ChangeFast!
Conventional thinking was that corporations would take 2-5 years to
effect change. Not true!! This was a lie created by consultants needing
long-term contracts and by corporate leaders too lazy to make fast
change work. People can change overnight if they have to! |

"There
is an old survival saying in Africa,
When the sun comes up, you better be running."
|
It used to be the BIG that captured the SMALL. Now
it's the FAST that will eat the SLOW. Know what to dump. Clear out
what doesn't work, dump the extra load.
|
| 3. Be Clear |
| When things get complex, people slow down, even stop.
They start to feel bored and even hopeless. Their enthusiasm disappears.
The best people leave, and the mediocre ones get busy keeping the
dumb rules, even making up more. Revolutionary leaders, the ones that
cause transformations, are not interested in the politics of titles. |

better to be running in the wrong direction than sitting still."

4. Own It
If we don't own it, we can't do it. Ownership is a state of mind.
It's a way of looking at the world and approaching our lives. Lack
of a belief in ownership creates predictable failure in both personal
and professional lives. But a belief that one has control over one's
own life (which is rarer than you think) can lead to a lifetime of
success and prosperity.

5. Inspire Others.
What inspires people to do their best? What causes them to dedicate
their heart, mind, and soul to the success of the business? This part
of Janet's program goes beyond extrinsic motivators such as salary,
benefits, and bonuses, to that moves people internally. It shows the
power of what can happen when people find the passion and heroism
in their work. Her powerful stories will not only fire up for the
short-term, but leave a lasting impression and serve as constant reminders.

| TOPIC TITLES |
| |
| Plant Your Feet Firmly
in Mid-Air |
| Management is dead. Motivational leadership is passé.
Every major system is in the process of a major shift. Leadership
in this new era requires the ability to think and lead others in new
ways. Drawing on her 25 years of pioneering work with international
leaders and peak performers in all fields, this inspirational business
program will give you up-to-date information on new trends impacting
your world. |

|
These days, everyone is the company can develop and
use leadership skills. Do not wait to be told what to do. You know
your company's values and mission. Make decisions based on those,
and you cannot go far wrong. The worst thing you can do is to sit
back and do nothing, with the excuse that you were not told. The most
important activity during fast change is to keep moving forward, and
the worst thing you can do when things are uncertain are to stop completely.
This program is designed to help people:
Discover opportunities in rapid change rather than focus on problems,
see the positives in current change, thus keep their team morale high,
and to develop personal and team accountability. |
| |
| Guilt in One Hand, Briefcase
in the Other |
How much do high stress levels and work overload cost
your company in lost work days, employee burnout, and decreased productivity?
The workplace is so busy that very few have the time to take care
of themselves, stay fit, and 'balance' their multiple roles. This
high-energy, fun presentation will provide the latest research findings
on stress, how to keep fully charged and full-speed ahead without
getting off-road or out of fuel. Although real balance may not be
possible these days, most people are playing the fool's game of trying
to keep up; they doing too much and are unable to discriminate high
payoff from low payoff activities.
This program will leave people with permission to let go of low-payoff
activities, of knowing what is realistic and doable, and provide tools
for focus both at home and at work. They will learn state-of-the-art
information on how to stay filled with energy, keep their relationships
humming, learn fast but effective ways to fight stress, and improve
their performance overall.

| How To Take Risks,
and Win under Pressure |
| Conventional thinking can't keep up with exponential
change. Many people have become complacent in their jobs (and their
lives), and have stopped pushing themselves into new areas which may
be uncomfortable for them. This is the best program when you want
your people to leave with new tools and ways of thinking that will
create a mindset not of passivity and followership, but of activity
and leadership. Creativity and innovation occur at the edge of discovery,
when one is pushing oneself into new behaviours and ideas. Giants
turned into extinct dinosaurs by playing by the old rules when the
game had changed. This program is a wakeup call to the future, and
is especially meaningful for incentive winners who, even though they
are already top performers, need to keep raising the bar and not rest
on the winner's pedestal. |
| Additional points covered in How To Take Risks,
and Win under Pressure: |
- Three characteristics of risk-taking and how to develop them.
- Characteristics that distinguish outstanding performers.
- The four most common faults that inhibit productivity, performance
and profits
- How to overcome four common blocks that prevent winners from
repeating.
- Why winners should always 'mess with success'.
