What do you want from a speaker?

 
You want someone who understands your business and understands the people in the seats in front of him. You need someone who understands you and what you’re trying to communicate to those people. What you want them to think and feel and believe.

You want someone who can tell you something you don’t know, something you haven’t heard a hundred times before. An authority on the key topics every business leader has to master.

How to turn innovation into a game-changing advantage. How to build a culture of innovation.

How to create disruptive execution that gets your ideas to market faster, cheaper and better than your competition.

How to build an organization that lives up to your brand promises, a company that’s branded to the bone.

You want someone who can make your audience laugh. Make them think. Make them want to get up out of those chairs and go change the world.

Call me. And let’s make it happen.

Keynotes

Innovate or Perish

In the new world we’re part of, a business will have only two choices: Innovate or Perish. You have to be out there with your eyes open looking for the trends everyone else is missing. You have to get into the heads of your employees and your customers. You have to get into the head of your competition. You have to find ways to innovate new ways of adding value to the lives of others, in a way that disrupts the marketplace. Because if you don’t someone else will.

Using case studies from the the ground-breaking book, Nanovation, Dain makes the case for building an organization that lives at the intersection of trends and knows what’s next before your customers do.

Disruptive Execution

While most companies are looking for disruptive innovation, great companies are looking for disruptive execution. They’re searching for processes to make them more efficient and more effective; searching for ways to take dollars out of the walls of their business so they can put them where the customer can see them; searching for the agile organization that can respond faster, with pin-point accuracy.

Dain draws from 25 years of experience helping leaders create cultures of execution and uses case studies to help your team focus on how disruptive execution can make them game-changers.

Branded to the Bone

Great companies are branded to the bone, true to their promise at every touch point. That means if you promise a better life to your customers, that promise has to be just as true for your employees, for your suppliers and for your community. As true for those who come in the back door as it is for those who come in the front. As true for those who invest their money as it is for those who invest their careers. True at every touch point. Not branded by an advertising agency. Branded to the bone.
