Winning, Leadership, and the Entrepreneurial Enterprise

In this talk, André Taylor brings together more than 30 years of insightful and inspiring experience as a successful entrepreneur, corporate executive, business innovator, and thought leader to help your group understand the ingredients of winning and leadership during challenging times and complex, competitive, situations.

Your attendees will learn how to focus on high-value activities and how to personally become more productive, effective, and lift your organization to greater profitability in the process. André explores the common attitudes and behavioral roadblocks that stand in the way of top performance personally and as an organization.

He’ll explain how taking an entrepreneurial approach and refining your management, marketing, and operational strategies with a “take command” mindset and proven results-oriented tactics that improve agility will lead to a more successful organization and industry impact, without compromising the sound business practices you must maintain as a company.

Ideal for annual conferences, trade and industry associations, corporations, non-profit organizations, networking groups, and all membership organizations. This program can be customized for your organization.

Winning In Sales
Succeeding In The Modern Game of Selling

Achieving consistent and profitable sales remains the biggest challenge for most companies. In this riveting talk, based on Andre’s book, he describes how sales success is predictable when you combine the 7 elements he defines as “MUSTS.”

There are many factors why sales professionals and entrepreneurs often find themselves in a position where it’s difficult to land new sales. While the economy and competitive conditions is a factor, more often than not, the real reason is that the sales professional has become disconnected from the winning tactics that lead to success. Over time, sales professionals can become complacent and neglect the approaches necessary to succeed. Your sales team will learn:

Why having a clear sales target is so important, how to set and maintain focus on your target.

How to craft a value-rich message using words, proven effective in selling situations.

The power of being proactive and how to stay motivated, so you stay in forward motion.

Keys to mastering client interaction, winning clients over, and keeping the people factor in mind.

How to be systematic in your sales planning and in the sequence of your sales activities.

How to avoid distraction and maintain focus on your most profitable opportunities.

How to turn “NO” into a progressive next step that moves the sale along.

Ideal for annual conferences, trade and industry associations, corporations, non-profit organizations, networking groups, and all membership organizations. This program can be customized for your organization.

Expand
Outgrow Your Limits. Unlock Your Potential.

In this talk, André Taylor brings together more than 30 years of study and work on the subject of maximizing human potential. Your audience will be challenged to look beyond their ideas about what they can be and do, and will be reminded that they have the freedom and responsibility to decide their future. They’ll learn how to get off the treadmill of mediocre performance, and mundane expectations. They’ll become empowered to expand in whatever areas of life they’ve found themselves locked into position and rise to higher levels of personal and professional fulfillment.

André makes the point that surprisingly, many people have not fully considered their potential. They “turn off” the idea, often in their youth, choosing instead to allow their functional potential to be defined and limited by societal norms. To support this thesis, André describes distinct differences in the way Millenials, Baby Boomers, Generation X, and Generation Y perceive their innate and career potential. Underscoring this point is the fact that more than 100 million Americans are not as aspirational as their parents. He explains how you can avoid falling in the trap of low expectations and how when you challenge yourself and develop a taste of your potential, you’ll not only feel more alive but will be determined to grow.

During this session your people will learn proven strategies to ensure they’re the decider of their lives, keep their attention focused while overcoming typical fears and doubts, and recognize “choke points” that limit their potential. They’ll learn how to stop confusing current challenges for permanent challenges and see themselves more and more creating a new picture for themselves and turning that picture into reality.

Ideal for annual conferences, trade and industry associations, corporations, non-profit organizations, networking groups, and all membership organizations. This program can be customized for your organization.

You Are Your Habits
The 4 Habits Winners Master

Aristotle said: “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act, but a habit.” In this talk, André discusses how your habits make you and explains how you can lead, win, and flourish by redefining you habits. Whether your group includes managers, salespeople, or staff members, they’ll be thoroughly engaged as André explores this topic by focusing on four categories:

The Get Going Habit

The Keep Going Habit

The Get Ahead Habit

The Stay Ahead Habit

During this session, André makes the point that applying success ideas is far more difficult than understanding them. And being able to see where you really are is enormously difficult for a large number of people. There’s a gap between what we want and the behavior we engage in. Sadly, we don’t see it.

What we do and what happens to us is a reflection of the habits we’ve formed – even when we think it’s all about the other person’s behavior. André explains habits not as something you do, but something you are which attracts certain responses in others. He challenges you to achieve more and by becoming more. How creative could we be? How much more effective could we be? How can we overcome the same problems with people and process that continually crop up? This talk will help your group reshape their results and experiences as they break free of habits that do not help them.

You Can Still Win! Break through, Bounce Back, Come from Behind and Flourish

There is an old saying that what doesn't kill you will make you stronger, but when organizations are maneuvering through complex and difficult times this isn’t always easy to grasp. It’s no secret that we’re operating in one of the most competitive business environments in history. Additionally many individuals within organizations are facing their own personal pressures due to unprecedented economic shifts. André Taylor’s talk on winning explores how you can survive and thrive during tough times as both an individual and as a company. Based on his book, “You Can Still Win!” this is an insightful and motivating lesson in overcoming roadblocks and obstacles. During this talk your audience will learn:

How to keep your emotions in check and get over emotional baggage
that holds you back.
Ways to eliminate negative thoughts that prevent you from rebounding.
Why failing may be your fastest way to success.
Why tenacity could be dangerous.
The 12 indisputable qualities of winners.

The 8 ways winners positively deal with change.
Five ways to make sure losing is temporary.
The Success Tripod: What it is and how to use it.
The 7 steps in developing a winning plan.
Three power strategies to accelerate your wins.
How to turn any situation around in 8 weeks.
Ideal for annual conferences, networking groups, trade and industry associations, corporations, non-profit organizations, and all membership organizations. This program can be customized for your organization.

The Entrepreneurial Educator
New Ideas in Winning and Leadership

School districts have the distinct challenge of keeping teachers and administrators engaged, motivated, and growing in one of the world’s most demanding professions; educating our youth. With increased pressure on raising academic performance, serving larger and more diverse students bodies, and doing so, under tight budget constraints, educators must not only understand teaching objectives, but they must also explore new leadership models to meet today’s challenges.

The Entrepreneurial Educator, presented as either a keynote or workshop, is an ideal program for educational institutions, school districts, and associations aimed at stimulating and improving the leadership performance of the modern educator. The program does not suggest that educators become entrepreneurs, but rather adopt this mindset and priorities of an entrepreneur, in a world where ordinary performance is no longer adequate. Like an entrepreneur, educators must become more results oriented, consider a broader spectrum of issues, and become alert to ever present opportunities to get better results whether it is in students, or themselves.

At the core of this message is Andre’s READY formula, which is detailed during this talk. In the workshop format, exercises are presented to engage participants in this concept. READY is an acronym that describes the mindset that all leaders must have today. It stands for:

Real-Time – Being alert to the fast pace of ideas, information, and organizational situations today, recognizing that we all must respond, and do so faster.

Entrepreneurial – Having the mindset of an innovator and becoming more “bottom-line” oriented, and tied to the mission of the educational institution, understanding the array of results that must be achieved.

Agile – Developing the ability to go into action faster, while demonstrating creativity and flexibility as a leader in education.

Dynamic – Understanding the new pace of change and adopting the skill to change course, amplify, or reduce attention to matters where appropriate.

Youthful – Recognizing our society’s preoccupation with youth culture and turning this into a leadership asset, incorporating this as a strategy to enliven the education process, the organization, and make the educator more relatable.

This is fast-paced, high-energy talk, rich with thought provoking ideas, valuable takeaways, and content that reinforces key priorities of any educational group, such as creativity, collaboration, and innovation. This will also be tailored to your organization’s needs along with a digital download so participants have the key ideas from the presentation to work with during the session and for months and years to come.
