We are living in the toughest business climate in modern history. Today, 95% of start-up businesses are bankrupt by their 10th year—and 80% of corporate products fail. Today, consumers are more distrusting, cynical and even angry than ever before. For all businesses, these are beyond tough times….the toughest time in history for the incumbent and the toughest time for you.

Lately, when I deliver speeches I begin with this question: “How many worry about surviving the Great Recession?” Do you find yourself wanting to raise your hand? Well, you’re not alone—in fact, most of my audiences raise their hands….some cautiously, some fearfully. Through my unique training called The Underdog Advantage you’ll learn how to develop the attitude of an insurgent. An insurgent is an individual who harbors an attitude of difference, moves faster and welcomes change as opportunity. You’ll learn to embrace boldness, daring and a never-say-die attitude.

My award-winning book, The Underdog Advantage, is about a proven and winning set of principles and lessons. And my speeches will teach you how to apply these lessons for your business and your career….to beat the odds….showing you how to succeed in these uncertain times.

We learned these lessons from our clients—from helping to elect twelve presidents and from some of the top CEOs in the nation; our clients range from Microsoft to Google, from Coke to Pepsi, from Disney to Nike to Verizon to Visa to McDonald’s to General Electric to American Express…. And we want to share these lessons with you—because today, it’s the underdog, the insurgent, who holds the advantage.

Here is what you’ll learn: How to emerge from confusion to focus. The book is the “must-read” resource for those of you who want to grasp fearless insurgent strategy. This presentation has been critically acclaimed as ground-level training for application, implementation and motivation. It is designed just for you.

This is the new way for you and your team to win.
