Corporate
In a world that’s ever changing and extremely competitive, it’s imperative that businesses and corporations are identifying ways to continually grow. Whether you are in need of sales support, leadership training, or guidance on how to retain employees (and keep them happy!), Adam will undoubtedly help you accomplish your goal(s).
Most commonly requested presentations for the corporate setting include:
1) LEAD(er)SHIP
In life and in the workplace there’s always going to be a need for the “ship” to be led. The question is, who will step up to lead it? In this talk, Adam will identify the three key components of an effective leader, and how leadership can help to increase productivity in your work environment.
2) Mentorship in the Workplace
A mentor in the workplace can often be the underlying factor between a new employee success or failure. In this talk, Adam will explore how mentorship played an integral role in helping him go from sleeping in his car to growing his business. In addition, he will identify the five key elements needed to make a mentor/mentee relationship effective, and highlight the benefits such a relationship can have on the individuals directly involved, as well as the group the individuals are a part of.
“In two or three weeks, Adam’s presentation paid for itself through the increased productivity with the managers, increased motivation, and improved attitude.” – Dave Harting, Owner, Crystal Clean
College
College can be one of the most exciting, yet challenging times in an individual’s life. For Adam, he decided to move more than 1,200 miles from home to attend college, and soon the feeling of being homesick and the demands of a new intense college schedule had caught up with him. Whether a freshman orientation, leadership development conference, university recreation group, or Greek Life, Adam will undoubtedly help your students to adequately manage the daily stressors of college life, while providing them tangible examples of how skills learned in college can be easily transferable to life beyond college.
Most commonly requested presentations for the college setting are:
1) Fitting In vs. Standing Out
This presentation has been delivered to recreation departments, Greek life, student government’s and freshman orientations. In this talk Adam explores how college students can learn to fit in and when/how to stand out in a positive way. He will share strategies to help students more effectively manage their time, resolve conflict, and become comfortable in stepping out of their comfort zone!
2) Failure Is Not An Option
In college, students are often exposed to “failure” much more frequently than they had been in high school or other areas of life. This presentation is designed to help students develop coping strategies to deal with failure, and how failure can often time be the stepping-stone for success. Adam will identify three principles for helping students overcome their failures in school, work, and life, and how to use them to their advantage.
