Get Good® At Life with Lee Jackson

In this keynote session, Lee helps your teams to understand the importance of team connection, true motivation, and real researched resilience. He helps and encourages them to understand themselves and their motivations better, and to help them become more efficient and creative.

KEY TALKING POINTS

MOTIVATION: What is motivation? How do we keep ourselves motivated day-to-day? And understanding the factors that get us to work. Lee covers areas of understanding “the why”, i.e. why we go to work, tapping into our personal drivers. When we understand how we tick, it really helps our day-to-day work.

PRODUCTIVITY: Sharing tips and tricks to keep productive while in or away from the office, with tips on focussing better and beating procrastination.

RESILIENCE: Or, as Lee refers to it, the “Keeping On Going”. He’ll share stories and tips to help us keep going, including encouraging them to communicate well as a team and support each other, and their wellbeing in these challenging times.

DELIVERY METHOD: Lee delivers this content either in person or online. He delivers with passion and enthusiasm to make it feel different and engaging. It won’t be a standard talk. Using great stories and quick-moving content from his research, he keeps audiences engaged, listening, and interested to make it more memorable.

LENGTH OF SESSION: Lee can do anything from 10 minutes to a whole day, and would adjust it as needed. It can be ideal for a keynote conference talk, a ‘lunch and learn’ or ‘learning burst’, or a half/full day.

FORMAT: This can be delivered in person or remotely with built-in interaction and Q&A to deepen the learning. Lee can also do a recap video too which he often does for clients, with a handout and a link to a dedicated follow-up webpage.
