Hitting the Sweet Spot: There is a profound concept in the human performance world known as being in a state of flow. It’s sort of like finding your sweet spot–being hyper-focused, super creative, with you and your team operating at their best. Research tells us that at a minimum, three conditions must be met in order for us to move into flow: having clear goals, immediate and appropriate feedback, and proper skill/challenge ratio. This workshop provides individualized assessment and knowledge on improving your teams’ flow states while Matt Chaney discusses his experiences optimizing flow as a Green Beret commander; having earned the Silver Star and Purple Heart during combat operations.

When we’re in control of our attention, we can “flip the switch” becoming present and intent on the mission-critical and controllable. In contrast, when we’re distracted our attention can easily fall into the traps of negativity, criticism, comparison, expectation, and debilitative self-talk. Through Green Beret Jeff Adams’ gripping and unapologetically authentic combat experiences and Nate Last’s applied science programming, this workshop helps participants develop their capacity to observe and orient their attention to facilitate engaged personal performances for more successful team outcomes.

When chaos ensues, self-regulation and specifically emotional regulation must prevail. Whether you’re entrenched in the fog of war on the battlefield or you’re combating stress, uncertainty, or conflict in the workplace, it is the ability to efficiently identify and effectively manage emotional information that will build a foundation to help guide your thoughts and behaviors in an effort to influence an optimal outcome. The ability to identify and manage emotional information is recognized as emotional intelligence (EI). Joe Serna talks about emotional dexterity and the practices that he drew from to survive and thrive in uncertainty during combat operations. Gain a functional knowledge of EI and walk away with 5 techniques to practically apply EI to any situation as you work to influence an optimal outcome.

One does not have to train to the extreme, but you do have to practice the fundamentals day in and day out to be able to adapt to the stressors put before you. Get exposed to “little doses of venom” daily and learn how to properly execute movement make you a little more resilient to the stressors of life. Tyler Christiansen expands upon Rusty Whitt’s keynote by explaining the steps to developing your “base layers” of physical nutrition and toughness to develop a loyal corporate culture and fanatic customer base by leaning into your strengths and recognizing who you are first and foremost.

Culture is made up of people: the way each of us socializes, builds trust, learns how to influence and negotiate through conflict, with positive outcomes. So let’s better understand who you are, then lead into how you (we) all fit together and form a healthy trust of one another to achieve results. To achieve results, we need to learn how best to influence once another and understand how to negotiate through conflict. That all begins with the understanding of our own behavioral needs and those of others. Shelley Smith builds off Dan Quinn’s emotional journey as a Green Beret commander in Afghanistan and taking a stand against the common practice of bacha bazi (child sex slavery). She shows you how social outcomes influence overall increase in employee engagement, increase in satisfaction, increase in retention, decrease in turnover, and increase in productivity, therefore increasing top-line sales and bottom-line profit.

Great organizations do not happen by accident, but rather by deliberate intention. Truly effective groups, businesses, military units, and athletic teams are characterized by a clear and powerful philosophy, way, and/or creed that galvanizes attitude and effort. A creed is a set of clearly established beliefs and guiding principles that can act as a motivational oath and action plan that directs focus and energy towards optimal performance.
This is a can’t miss presentation for forward-thinking groups who want results as this workshop focuses on leading your team through a creative process that results in a clear understanding of the key values that will guide your work as an individual, team, leadership group and/or organization. It is designed to assist participants in a candid discussion about great teams, obstacles that thwart effectiveness, and the ultimate creation of a creed (traits, beliefs, affirmations, actions) that each participant will commit to and that all members will inspire to live and uphold.
Presenter: Michael Gerson

Employees will learn to identify sources of stress and how to reduce the impact of the negative in their life while utilizing positive stress to be impactful. Attendees will learn the concepts beyond focus and flow through discussions and exercises.

As the pace of business continues to increase we often feel as if we’re under fire by a barrage of competing tasks. The question becomes, “how do we deal with all these things, all at once?” We have several full time focuses, but only a limited amount of emotional and mental energy to devote to each one. Compartmentalization is the ability to filter through conflicting values, thoughts, and emotions, then isolate and focus on difficult issues separately in the performance moment. Sarah Spradlin expands upon Joey Jones’ presentation and empowers you to efficiently bring new ideas and creativity back to your desks.

Nate Boyer’s story represents the remarkable journey of a lost young man without purpose—through his transformation into a Green Beret, combat veteran, and sports icon. While he is celebrated for his achievements, it’s important to understand the mundanity of his excellence—the process behind the outcomes. The focus of this keynote is Nate’s ability to adapt, overcome, and improvise—how he adapted and pushed his body beyond its limits to achieve superhuman feats. Jason Mitchler recounts Nate’s experiences to explain adaptability and what risks you and your clients need to understand in order to thrive in uncertainty.

We live in a world where Information Overload is a given. This means we are at the mercy of overexposure, excessive consumption, and wildly abundant information and data. Those in leadership positions today think they are required to make perfect decisions because it seems as if all the information we need is readily available. Our quality of decisions is reduced by Analysis Paralysis. This situation occurs when the overthinking and overanalyzing of a situation causes decision-making and forward progress to come to a halt. Green Beret Brian Petit‘s stories and candor will captivate your executives. His insights as a Green Beret Colonel on multi-tasking, overcoming analysis paralysis, and achieving victory are priceless.
