Re-Thinking Your CHOICES.

Posted by Connie Podesta

It's All About Perspective by Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta The truth is?  The difference between being POWERFUL and POWERLESS in our lives really does come down to CHOICE.  We can ACT or REACT.  We can find the GOOD or the BAD in any given situation.  We can LEARN from each day or keep repeating old habits and patterns.  It's up to us.  Each of us. Every day.  If  what you want is to live differently.  Abundantly.  Purposefully.  Creatively.  You absolutely CAN.  It all starts with taking CHARGE of your life. TAKING CHARGE means: No more excuses Being accountable Read More

Understanding Generational Mindsets

Posted by Connie Podesta

A Lesson in Generations By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta I was interviewed while keynoting a leadership conference a while back and asked the question, “What can leaders do to help the generational diversity out there?”  It was a good question and one that I think is really important for today’s leaders.  You know, it’s easy to play the blame game-right?  The older generation is quick to judge the younger generations and the younger generation, frankly is quick to do the same. Here’s the deal.  The Baby Boomers are known for being hard workers, nose-to-the-grindstone Read More

Take the Wheel!

Posted by Connie Podesta

Taking Charge of a Memorable Life By Hall-of-Fame Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Coincidence. Luck. Karma. Fate. Chance.  Words tossed around A LOT lately, right?  Sometimes as excuses for bad choices, right?  Sometimes heard from those who believe that life is just lobbing lemons at them and there’s no recipe for lemonade.  And sometimes, the foundation for lives lived unfulfilled and unhappy because people resign themselves to the fact that ‘that’s just the way life is.” No.  The truth is you can feel POWERLESS, and take on the ‘life’s unfair’ attitude, or you can feel Read More

How to Successfully Sell to Women (And Men)

Posted by Connie Podesta

And Why This Book May Be NOT What You Expected by Motivational Keynote Speaker and Author Connie Podesta The truth is - times have CHANGED.  And smart, savvy salespeople are willing to make changes too in order to grow their business and keep their clients happy.  That's one of the reasons I wrote the book How to Make a Fortune Selling to Women.  One thing that has become crystal clear in recent years is that statistics show that women influence 85% of all purchasing decisions. However, most sales training focuses on selling to men. So I was asked by audience  members and clients to come Read More
