    Dr. Janet Lapp: Program Outlines

    Each presentation is completely customized, which means that you don't have to choose just one topic. We will decide together which components best fit to reinforce the objectives of your meeting, to address the specific challenges and concerns facing your audience, and to provide practical, take-home value.

    Depending on need and request, Janet's presentations will include the following points:

      Think Big
      The world is not changed by those who are unwilling to take risks; it is revolutionized by big thinkers willing to create big problems with big solutions.

      ChangeFast!
      Conventional thinking was that corporations would take 2-5 years to effect change. Not true!! This was a lie created by consultants needing long-term contracts and by corporate leaders too lazy to make fast change work. People can change overnight if they have to!

      Be Clear
      When things get complex, people slow down, even stop. They start to feel bored and even hopeless. Their enthusiasm disappears. The best people leave, and the mediocre ones get busy keeping the dumb rules, even making up more. Revolutionary leaders, the ones that cause transformations, are not interested in the politics of titles.

      Own It
      If we don't own it, we can't do it. Ownership is a state of mind. It's a way of looking at the world and approaching our lives. Lack of a belief in ownership creates predictable failure in both personal and professional lives. But a belief that one has control over one's own life (which is rarer than you think) can lead to a lifetime of success and prosperity.

      Inspire Others
      What inspires people to do their best? What causes them to dedicate their heart, mind, and soul to the success of the business? This part of Janet's program goes beyond extrinsic motivators such as salary, benefits, and bonuses, to that moves people internally. It shows the power of what can happen when people find the passion and heroism in their work. Her powerful stories will not only fire up for the short-term, but leave a lasting impression and serve as constant reminders.

    TOPIC TITLES

    Plant Your Feet Firmly in Mid-Air
    Management is dead. Motivational leadership is passé. Every major system is in the process of a major shift. Leadership in this new era requires the ability to think and lead others in new ways. Drawing on her 25 years of pioneering work with international leaders and peak performers in all fields, this inspirational business program will give you up-to-date information on new trends impacting your world.

    These days, everyone is the company can develop and use leadership skills. Do not wait to be told what to do. You know your company's values and mission. Make decisions based on those, and you cannot go far wrong. The worst thing you can do is to sit back and do nothing, with the excuse that you were not told. The most important activity during fast change is to keep moving forward, and the worst thing you can do when things are uncertain are to stop completely.

      This program is designed to help people:
      Discover opportunities in rapid change rather than focus on problems, see the positives in current change, thus keep their team morale high, and to develop personal and team accountability.

    Guilt in One Hand, Briefcase in the Other
    How much do high stress levels and work overload cost your company in lost work days, employee burnout, and decreased productivity? The workplace is so busy that very few have the time to take care of themselves, stay fit, and 'balance' their multiple roles. This high-energy, fun presentation will provide the latest research findings on stress, how to keep fully charged and full-speed ahead without getting off-road or out of fuel. Although real balance may not be possible these days, most people are playing the fool's game of trying to keep up; they doing too much and are unable to discriminate high payoff from low payoff activities.

    This program will leave people with permission to let go of low-payoff activities, of knowing what is realistic and doable, and provide tools for focus both at home and at work. They will learn state-of-the-art information on how to stay filled with energy, keep their relationships humming, learn fast but effective ways to fight stress, and improve their performance overall.

    How To Take Risks, and Win under Pressure
    Conventional thinking can't keep up with exponential change. Many people have become complacent in their jobs (and their lives), and have stopped pushing themselves into new areas which may be uncomfortable for them.

    This is the best program when you want your people to leave with new tools and ways of thinking that will create a mindset not of passivity and followership, but of activity and leadership. Creativity and innovation occur at the edge of discovery, when one is pushing oneself into new behaviours and ideas. Giants turned into extinct dinosaurs by playing by the old rules when the game had changed.

    This program is a wakeup call to the future, and is especially meaningful for incentive winners who, even though they are already top performers, need to keep raising the bar and not rest on the winner's pedestal.

      Additional points covered in How To Take Risks, and Win under Pressure:
    • Three characteristics of risk-taking and how to develop them.
    • Characteristics that distinguish outstanding performers.
    • The four most common faults that inhibit productivity, performance and profits
    • How to overcome four common blocks that prevent winners from repeating.
    • Why winners should always 'mess with success'.
