Like the master classes taught by virtuoso musicians, Rich meets with small groups of executives in organizations to go deep on executive performance skills.

Why do we make the choices we do? What criteria do we use – both rational and emotional – to come to those decisions? It is impossible to deliver the results customers and clients, stakeholders and donors want without understanding what constitutes success for them. Rich presents a series of deceptively simple and simply disarming questions which get to the heart of what others really want.

Building on the “Strategies of Genius” work done by one of his mentors, Robert Dilts, Rich teaches a powerful strategy for individual and group creativity. Using examples from Walt Disney’s personal approach to creative works and the way he interacted with his staff provides a dynamic process for managing creative teams.

“Will you give a speech?”

It’s a sentence that strikes terror into the hearts of millions. Maybe it does for you!

In 1990, while working as a communications consultant, Rich began to wonder why many of the bright, otherwise competent business people he worked with would fall apart if asked to speak in public. After a year of study, Rich discovered six components needed for confident public speaking.

From that groundbreaking study Rich developed Speak Your Mind — Without Losing It™, a two day seminar that enables anyone to become a confident speaker.

Rich found that it is what people believe — about themselves, about their audience, and about public speaking — that affects their level of fear or confidence. But most books and seminars about public speaking focus on presentation skills. All the presentation skills in the world won’t conquer the fear. In this seminar, Rich focuses on beliefs and shows participants powerful ways to change their beliefs and speak with ease.
