TAKEAWAYS

  • How to remain innovative and creative when morale is low and energy seems exhausted. 
  • Serving Others…while serving Each Other How we treat one another has changed dramatically since the pandemic. The Paradigm has shifted from trying to temporarily over-impress people (WOW) to learning how to consistently eliminate silly errors, correcting missteps, and reducing communication blunders (POWS). 
  • Partnerships & Collegiality These two ideas are emboldened by securing the trust of our friends, communities, and stakeholders. I’ll talk about the collaborative powers of Extreme Curiosity, Instant Rapport, and Understanding (from the perspective of a Network Talk and Game show host/producer). Profound and Fun.
  • Transparency – Doing the Right Thing It is astounding that we still have to teach this but we cannot avoid it. Ross has some incredible stories or individuals (from humble backgrounds) who have influenced leaders (worldwide) with their simple methods. 
  • Staying Loyal & Committed  Ross loves to talk about how The Final Moment of every transaction is the “stickiest” and most impactful for creating ongoing loyalty and trust. We all become emotionally connected with people, brands, and promises, if the last interaction we experience is positive.
  • Instilling Confidence and Security Regardless of your job or position, developing World Class Expertise, in any profession, builds confidence in yourself and others. I’ll talk about Bill Nye, The Science Guy (whom I invented), my father, Chuck Shafer, and Dave Hopla – the World’s Greatest Basketball shooter. Funny and insightful, this discussion will assure everyone that greatness is accessible and insures collaboration, respect, and influence.
