*VIRTUAL- THE ROI of KINDNESS

In this powerful webinar we’ll dig into the greatest secret of organizational performance, momentum, and winning culture: The power of KINDNESS.

This is a 60-75-minute webinar via ZOOM. In addition to the webinar, you will receive a case (40 copies) of my new book: "The ROI of Kindness".

 

Kindness, Character, Humility…
The Time is NOW!

When virtually anyone who knew my mentor and friend, the great Coach John Wooden attempts to describe his greatest qualities, KINDNESS inevitably rises to the top of the list. Coach Wooden taught, "It's amazing what's accomplished when no one cares who gets the credit." Credit is something you GIVE, responsibility something you take! When you demonstrate that correct give and take, you build people, teams, and relationships that elevate your family, your community, and the world. When you are pro-actively kind you demonstrate the ultimate of human respect.

The burning passion firing my spirit about the urgent need we have in our culture right now about kindness, character, and humility has ignited me to develop a brand-new keynote presentation. It’s called Breakthrough to Kindness! I’m so excited about this program because it reveals that not only is kindness a wonderful quality to develop in ourselves personally, surprisingly, on a business level, IT WORKS!!! Stunningly, for customer loyalty and the buying decision, kindness is the single most important deciding factor ... and its importance is growing more than three times faster than any other! For reducing turnover, the power of a kindness culture is nothing short of ASTONISHING. And for your bottom line, kindness, more than any other factor elevates employee engagement leading to consistent profitability, quality, and growth.

Here is a quick overview of this important new keynote….

- What is the single most important element in elevating employee engagement in business today?

- What is the key ingredient in building an unstoppable culture of teamwork, loyalty, and collaboration?

- What is the most surprising yet empowering difference-maker in your organization? One that every single team member can bring immediately to each other and to every customer? And the one that will have a direct and extraordinary positive impact to your bottom line?

In one dynamic word: KINDNESS!

In this culture-shifting keynote, Brian Biro reveals the stunning bottom-line impact that results from a concerted focus on elevating kindness into every aspect of your organization!

You’ll be amazed to learn that companies who center on kindness as a top value create remarkable results such as:

• A ten-fold reduction in turnover vs industry average (Chick-Fil-A and Starbucks)
• Legendary profitability (46 consecutive years of positive bottom line and zero layoffs throughout all those years (Southwest Airlines)
• Industry leading growth and patient/customer care (Kaiser Permanente)

Many in business have the mistaken belief that focusing on kindness is soft and weak. In Breakthrough to Kindness, Brian will shatter those misconceptions! He’ll also uncover the simple secrets to developing and delivering proactive kindness into your culture that will transform every aspect of your business.

The time is NOW to BREAKTHROUGH TO KINDNESS!

 

New for 2019: A Keynote-Length Presentation Where EVERYONE Gets To Break a Board!

Brian Biro's full Breakthrough Experience typically takes a minimum of 4 hours.

In the past, he has offered a shorter version in a Keynote format of 75-90 minutes, but due to time constraints, only two randomly-selected attendees would get to break boards.

Well, in response to the needs of meeting planners who are charged with accomplishing more in tighter time frames, Brian is excited to introduce a new Keynote Presentation that can still be accomplished in 75-90 minutes, but now EVERYONE gets the full board-breaking experience!

 

Breakthrough Leadership
Breakthroughs are not just possible - they're plannable!

Ultimately, no matter what industry you’re involved in, you are in the BREAKTHROUGH business!

Every day you seek to breakthrough with customers to generate loyalty, satisfaction, and relationship. The key to lasting success in business is breaking through with your team members so they eagerly embrace personal responsibility, committed purpose, and leadership. They must see themselves as breakthrough leaders! And especially in times of challenge, they must focus persistently on what they CAN do rather than wasting time and energy on the things they don’t control.

This one-of-a-kind presentation ignites the energy and true leadership potential in every participant.

Breakthrough Leadership is full-spectrum leadership that teaches every participant how to shape the future, energize the team, build effective relationships, drive results, and model personal excellence, integrity, and accountability. In this vibrant, engaging presentation, you’ll gain a new appreciation for your impact on others and how you can make a genuine difference! The session creates a fresh, new, and exciting vision of leadership that includes:

- Igniting “E” Power in your team—the #1 key to igniting others and self

- Being fully present, the key to building people, trust, and balance

-the most surprising and powerful essentials to recognition, acknowledgment, and appreciation

- The critical importance of becoming a master of questions

 

Champions of Change
Shaping Your Future

Organizations and individuals deal with change in three principal ways:

  1. Most merely put up with change. They wait, react, and try to keep it at arm's length. If they’re lucky, these are change idlers.
  2. Some fight change and stay entrenched in old ways of thinking, acting, and leading. Often, these become change victims whose results, quality, and enthusiasm fall right off the charts.
  3. Winners embrace and often anticipate, or even create change! These are change Champions! They recognize that standing still is going backward. They understand that the best things they’ve ever experienced or accomplished came from change…doing things they’ve never done before and thinking in ways they never have before.

Becoming an organization of CHANGE CHAMPIONS injects tremendous energy, momentum, innovation, and vitality into everything you do. Your team members are EXCITED to come to work. They feel respected, appreciated, and engaged.

In this breakthrough presentation, every single participant will learn the simple but powerful keys to move from change idlers or victims to true CHANGE CHAMPIONS! They will experience the joy of positive change and of accomplishing things they didn’t know they could do!

The result of this exciting presentation is a team that is more united, engaged, and focused on possibility rather than limits!



Controlling the Controllables
Don't let what you CAN'T do keep you from doing what you CAN!

Isn’t it time to stop focusing and worrying about what you DON’T control and shift energy to what you DO control?

Organizations and individuals who are winning in these challenging times are creating cultures of possibility, based upon every team member embracing personal responsibility for their effort, energy, and attitude.

Brian's friend and mentor, the legendary coach John Wooden often said: "Be more concerned with your CHARACTER than your reputation, for your character is who you ARE…Your reputation, only what others think you are." It is this focus on the key elements of your character that you control -- your effort, energy, and attitude -- that enables you and your team to break through the fear of failure and replace it with an unstoppable determination to constantly improve. By doing so you will ensure that your character and reputation will become one!

Transform burn-out and stress to momentum and extraordinary results in your team as you learn to control the controllables!

 

Focus
What you focus on is what you CREATE!

Great leaders know the secrets to help themselves and their team members move from “it’s a job” to “it’s my PASSION.” They energize and engage the team, build effective and connected relationships, shape the future, and model personal excellence, integrity, personal responsibility, and humility. That’s how they deliver exceptional results. And every participant in this presentation is a leader – a self-leader – no matter what his or her title or position may be!

In this powerful presentation Brian Biro, America’s Breakthrough Coach teaches every single leader how to truly build people and build teams – to be true breakthrough leaders! You’ll learn how to help everyone you affect to travel the most important 18 inches they will ever experience, from their heads to their hearts. Remember, if you’re not INspired, you’re on your way to being EXpired!

FOCUS will awaken personal responsibility, vision, and personal excellence in everyone who attends this unforgettable event!

 

Silos to Synergy
It's Amazing What's Accomplished When No One Cares Who Gets the Credit!

You know the story...sales hates operations…Operations can’t stand sales…their only agreement is that they abhor the home office just a little bit more!

Though this description may be a bit of an exaggeration in your organization, it is clear that enormous energy, momentum, and results are being lost through the separation that comes from silos.

Brian Biro, America’s Breakthrough Coach has tackled this challenge head-on in real life, not just from the stage!

First, he built one of the nation’s largest and most accomplished swimming teams, successfully merging two top programs into a powerful and united whole. Next, as a corporate vice president at a leading transportation company, Brian used the same teambuilding principles and strategies you’ll learn in this one-of-a-kind presentation to engineer a phenomenal turnaround that resulted in enormous sales and profitability growth while transforming a silo-infested organization into a high-performance team!

For the last 20+ years as a speaker and consultant, Brian has assisted hundreds of organizations to come together and build environments of mutual support, true respect, and great appreciation for one another.

It’s truly amazing what's accomplished when no one cares who gets the credit!

 

Building People
The ultimate secrets to building a culture of optimism!

How do you build trust, momentum, energy, and passion into every member of your team, whether you’re the long-time leader or the rawest rookie? And when the workday is done, how do you bring that same enthusiasm to your loved ones? Most importantly, how do you build these qualities within yourself?

In Building People! Brian Biro, America’s Breakthrough Coach guides you to exciting and fresh new approaches in using recognition, acknowledgment, and appreciation to build others.

Through wonderful stories and engaging activities, you’ll discover the most crucial keys to building trust and to helping everyone around you feel important and significant. You’ll learn the most surprising secret to elevate engagement and build leaders.

Along the way, you will never experience a presentation with greater energy than Building People! By the conclusion of the presentation, you will be fired up to lift and ignite all those around you, whether your teammates and colleagues in your professional life or your loved ones at home.

 

From EGO to WE GO!
If it's to be, it's up to WE!
