Achieving Your Goals in Extreme Conditions
Today’s world economic climate has shifted from conditions that might be described as a gentle tail breeze on the bunny hill to what is now a head wind in an extreme sport that we didn’t sign up for! Two groups of people will emerge during this recession. There will be those that sit with their head in their hands—drifting, stalled, stuck; and there will be those that choose to draw a line in the sand, take responsibility, maintain control, and remain accountable for their own lives and economic security.

In today’s extreme conditions fear, doubt and uncertainty are paralyzing people’s power, both professionally and personally. As outlined in Cary’s book, HOW to WIN - Achieving Your Goals in Extreme Conditions, your attendees will discover the important distinction between the two kinds of fear we all experience. They will learn the four reactions to fear and which ones they are over or under using. Through Cary’s IDLE formula and Lunge Forward Approach, they will reduce their stress, overcome their fears and improve their execution

Innovating in Times of Scarcity
In the current economic climate we’re witnessing more fear and uncertainty than we have seen in more than 40 and perhaps as many as 70 years. In such extreme circumstances many will stumble, fall and fail, and yet others will prevail. How will those with the instinct and drive to win rise above their circumstances? They’ll do it with optimism, an unwavering belief in themselves and through innovation. In one way or another, individuals who consistently achieve the best results have the courage to innovate even when it is very uncomfortable.

This presentation addresses two challenges facing leaders and top producers in any industry: 1) identifying your brightest techniques…those places where you are brilliant; 2) recognizing the industry paradigms or the status quos that may be holding you back from innovating. Cary Mullen shares examples of how to identify and measure your brilliance. He also shows you how to breakthrough what seems ‘logical’ to the industry and innovate new approaches even if they might seem crazy to others.

Team Captain Leadership
In the current economic climate, today’s leaders are finding themselves in an Extreme Sport that they did not sign up for. The journey ahead of us is not for the faint of heart nor is it for those with a minimal work ethic. Now is the time for achievers, for those who exercise strong leadership skills and act decisively!

Thriving in extreme conditions, building stronger relationships and increasing your team’s performance are the leadership hallmarks of a Team Captain. During this presentation, Cary Mullen shares the five skills of World Class Leadership: Focus, Execution, Adaptability, Teamwork and Self-Improvement. He shares insights on how leaders can improve each of these skills personally and in their team.
