Increasing Productivity – “Taking It To The Next Level”
We’re told to think outside the lines, think outside the box. What if the answers are still in the box? Most come to conventions in search of new answers when what we need are the right answers. None of us can exceed our potential, we just misjudge it. We can only exceed expectations. When we believe if best is possible, good is not good enough and realize it’s what we do when leadership is not around that makes us champions, we reach our full potential and “Take It To The Next Level” – not because it is expected by others, but because it is demanded by ourselves!

However, in this positive environment driven by Equity, Inclusion and Strength in Diversity, the focus is Not on Cultural Diversity emphasizing what makes us different - but rather on Cultural Commonality and what makes us the same.

What would you rather have-conventional success or a high level beyond success? Dan Clark, one of the world’s leading inspirational speakers and leadership trainers, vehemently opposes the conventional wisdom about success. He believes it’s tragic and superficial to build our careers and personal lives around getting more money, bigger houses, cooler toys, and fancier job titles. What’s it all worth in the end? How many outwardly successful people still feel empty inside? Clark has spent decades traveling around the world, interviewing the famous and powerful; consulting with presidents and generals and sheikhs and corporate leaders; creating a multimillion-dollar speaking and consulting business that teaches what works, what doesn’t and why.
In our rapidly changing world where most leaders focus on what makes Millennials and other generations different, Dan focuses on the timeless truths that make us all the same. In this sensational and timeless book, Dan literally takes readers to the next level in every aspect of life! By challenging the most common principles of success that have created limiting beliefs, Dan replaces them with his Twelve Highest Universal Laws of Life Changing Leadership, and delivers them in his time-tested three step A.R.T. process that increases Awareness of the things that prohibit peak performance; Refines who you are and why you do what you do; and creates a Transformational experience that turns success into significance!
Mindset Take-A-Ways: Inspired people don’t have to be motivated; When we identify ourselves in terms of what we do instead of who we are, we become human ‘doings’ instead of human ‘beings’ – unacceptable if significance is what we seek; when we focus on purposes instead of just setting goals, our ‘why’ becomes bigger than our ‘why not, and the ‘how-to’ becomes clear and simple.
