TOPICS
1. Igniting the Third Factor
How do you get someone else committed to reaching their full potential?It’s a question that challenges new managers and seasoned executives alike, echoes through coaches’ heads as they watch a gifted athlete underachieve, and keeps parents up at night. It’s a question that you need to be able to answer to move your work team to high performance and enable your children to achieve self-reliance and success.
It’s also a question Peter Jensen has spent a lifetime investigating. In Igniting the Third Factor, Peter synthesizes his life’s work into the five core practices exceptional leaders use to ignite the third Factor – whether it’s in the locker room before a gold medal Olympic hockey game or at a routine performance review.
Peter works through an easy-to-understand model, providing a clear view of 5 actions that separate ‘igniters’ from ‘’extinguishers’ and a wealth of strategies you can put to use immediately in your world.
Peter’s keynotes combine visionary ideas, with 30 years of unique experience to deliver an experience that entertains, educates, and motivates. It’s a speech only Peter could give – delivered the way only he can.
