Speaking, Workshops, Sales, Joe Girard
A successful keynote for the Professional Organizers in Canada

Let’s ignite the possibility in a group of people!

As a speaker and a trainer for more than a decade, I know there is nothing more powerful than getting a room full of people excited to take action on new ideas.

I cover topics in many areas, including:

  • Sales process and systems
  • Leadership
  • Strategy and goal setting
  • Psychology, human behavior, and influence

Bring me your BEST…or WORST people.

Yah, that’s right. I love a challenge. I have sat through countless workshops and listened to speakers in my time. So I can totally understand when people say, “Oh great, another speaker…”

My job as a speaker, facilitator, and trainer is to first unlock the mindsets of the people I am speaking to. We all have preconceived notions and mental models we struggle with each day.

Regardless of the situation, people are people and we need to acknowledge some basic human needs to connect, think, and be understood. And have fun. That’s my role as a speaker.

I have experience speaking with all sizes of groups and there is really no situation that you could throw at me! I’ve spoken with many people from small, local networking groups to billion dollar multinationals, and everything in between – including education and government.

It’s not about ME.

Over the years through my own personal development, I came to the realization that no one really cares what I do or say on stage. They care about how I make them feel (That is a slight adaptation of a Maya Angelou concept, but it’s true).

I used to worry about my voice, how I looked, and the words I said. Like many people, I would get stressed. Once I started working on myself and also with a spiritual coach, I began to realize over the years that I needed to be more vulnerable in order to help others feel safe to express themselves. I also learned to acknowledge my ego and ask myself (even while on stage), “Is this about me or is this about them?”

Some examples of speaking and topics:

Sales Reinvented Podcast: “Don’t be a Salesy Weirdo”

I loved being interviewed on this podcast to talk about how sales has changed and what salespeople and leaders need to do to make sure they are doing the right things to win and stay authentic. All without being “salesy weirdos.”

Joe Girard delivered the keynote address at our 2016 conference, in front of approximately 150 solopreneurs and small business owners. He was hands-down the most popular keynote we’ve ever had. His presentation material and style were dynamic, unique and refreshing. Joe took the time to learn about our association and industry, so his presentation was tailored and relevant. Comments from attendees included “I couldn’t wait to get home and start practicing the techniques” and “I didn’t think I had anything to learn about selling, but I learned a lot”. Our whole group was fired up and inspired, and the conversations continued long after the presentation was over.

Joe Girard, SpeakingTell me where you want to make an impact. And I will deliver the goods.

  • Who needs a boost?
  • Can we do some goal setting and planning?
  • Should we dive into some behavioral science, psychology, and influence?
  • Do you have a team that we could get fired up?
  • Does your networking group need some tips and tricks for long-term success?
  • Where can we transform some mindsets?
  • Are you in the midst of major change and need someone to reinforce, motivate, and educate?
  • Could your sales team get some focus and strategy in their complex sales process?
  • Do you want to learn the magic of story telling in presentations?
  • Where are your leaders or potential leaders and how can we create a vision, purpose, or strategy?

Also, I have built a powerful partnership network with world-class experts and consultants so that we can tackle ANY business challenge big or small. That includes bringing in some big guns to do some team speaking!!
