TALK TOPICS

LEADERSHIP

Why Some People Always Succeed: How to be One of Them

This is Dr. Mancusi’s most popular keynote and closing speech. He has presented aspects of this topic at the White House on six separate occasions. Studies confirm that talent, hard work, and goals are not enough for success. This practical and humorous talk looks at reasons why some people succeed and others, equally talented, don’t. Dr. Mancusi does not know what success is for you. He doesn’t know your goals, desires, education, motivation, or values. He does know what people do to derail their own success and delivers this powerful message as only he can.
Participants will have fun and closely examine their goals and dreams. They discover the keys to unlock their full potential and map out a strategy for their future. This is a special opportunity to celebrate the successes we all achieve in our personal and professional lives.

Objectives:

Understand why your weakest traits may take you to greatness.

Learn how not to sabotage success

Use pride, praise, and enthusiasm to lead others.

Discover the power of mentoring: How to find one. How to be one.

Learn five distinct sources of power and how to tap into them.

 

The Emotionally Intelligent Organization: Why IQ Isn't Enough

This is one of Dr. Mancusi's newest talks based on his own findings and those of psychologist Daniel Goleman. Psychologists have now determined that emotional intelligence (EQ) not intelligence (IQ) is more important to personal and organizational success -- only 20% of success in life comes from IQ. Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is the key factor.


Some very intelligent people will never find success because their emotions hijack their intelligence forcing poor decisions, no follow-through, and weak interpersonal skills. We all know people who “have it” but just don’t “get it.” Mancusi outlines key strategies to increase your own EQ. Find out the one personality trait that will undermine teamwork and achievement in most companies. Why is it that most organizations do not even consider this trait when hiring new people? Mancusi tells his audiences how to look for emotional intelligence.

Each person uses the patterns set in childhood throughout their lifetime, yet does not recognize these patterns are at work. Mancusi gives audiences a new opportunity to enhance their own future by identifying and changing low EQ behavior.

 

Empowering Yourself and Others: Leadership in the 21st Century

In this insightful workshop and talk, Dr. Mancusi probes the many changes challenging the American work force and reveals the traits needed for organizations and their people to flourish. Topics include:

 

Secrets to motivating a diverse work force.

Why IQ is not enough for success.

Three keys for reaching any employee.

Mentoring new and old employees.

Motivating employees and supervisors who have seen it all.

Becoming a legend, not just a hero.


Dr. Mancusi details new ways to get everyone working and moving towards success. Be prepared to accept new roles, both personally and professionally, to reach your goals.

 

Personality Styles: Leadership, Management & Team Impacts

Give your employees the ammunition they need to solve interpersonal, sales, and management problems by discovering their personality styles. This seminar is crucial for all managers, team members, sales personnel, or anyone wanting to see how a person's personality can profoundly affect their relationships. They will learn how their interactions with others can enhance communication, build teamwork, and increase their effectiveness on the job.


Participants take a widely-acclaimed paper and pencil inventory that reveals personality and management styles. Dr. Mancusi has guided over 9,000 managers through interpretation of this inventory. Employees will learn to identify nine different personality patterns and how each personality pattern addresses:

Time Control

Delegation

Motivation Management

Setting & Meeting Goals

Mentoring

Leadership Skills

Decision Making

Stress Management


From this workshop the participants will be able to apply what they learned to themselves and others. This seminar generally takes four to eight hours. This workshop can accommodate up to 50 attendees per session.

 

These programs are examples of Dr. Mancusi's work to demonstrate the breadth of his subject expertise. The write-ups are a base upon which a client and Dr. Mancusi can build a customized program to meet the organization's meeting theme and goals.
