An Interview with Rory Vaden I had a lot to share in a recent interview with Rory Vaden, a leader from the Daily Discipline Blog. Here are a few highlights of what we covered: - Why your kids, your spouse, your team members, and your customers aren't listening to you. - How to get anyone “on board” with your ideas in the first few seconds. - Find out if you are a “Relator” or a “Bottom-liner” and how it impacts your influence - Why being a great leader requires you to be a great influencer… - If someone is to be uncomfortable in the sales Read More

Want More BALANCE?
A Change and a Choice By Keynote Speaker and Change Expert Connie Podesta I can just imagine what you are thinking right now. "Seriously? Where do I find more time when I'm so busy I can barely breathe? In a holiday season where I should be putting other people first and me last? " I hear you. I've been there. But let's be honest. It's not a matter of finding a few minutes--it's the reluctance to change your routine, prioritize differently or rethink your options that keeps you so very busy. Two things must happen if you truly want some balance in your life. One, you must truly Read More
How to Survive a Crisis
Fighting for Happiness in the Midst of Tragedy By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Whoa! Life is moving along just fine, thank you very much—when out of the blue, it hits us—a crisis! For me it was a recent house fire which destroyed 90% of everything material that I owned, loved and cared for.

Reposition Your Strengths (And Get To Know YOURSELF)
By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Sometimes as a keynote speaker, I receive emails from people who have been in my audience saying “I heard everything you said Connie, but you just don’t understand. I’m not like you. You have it made. But I am stressed. And worried about my job. And don’t have the talent or skills you do.” And I laugh, thinking – oh, if ONLY you had seen me yesterday sitting in my robe worried, stressed and overwhelmed by the day’s work ahead of me. I realize, that because I’m on a stage, I may seem invincible. Or full of humor. Or have all the answers. Read More
