OUTPERFORM THE NORM: Raise Your Game

Today’s competition is brutal and the pressure to perform can be suffocating. What are you doing to stay ahead and keep from burning out?

Join Scott Welle, #1 Best Selling Author and Founder of Outperform The Norm, as he shares the peak performance strategies used by high achievers and elite performers to take your “game” to the next level:

  • Challenge limiting beliefs about your performance standards that may be holding you back
  • Build a peak performance routine by utilizing the “Vital 4%”
  • Raise your influence & impact by focusing less on what you need to DO vs. who you need to BE
  • Boost positivity and happiness by up to 30%
  • Adapt & thrive through pressure, change, crisis and unpredictability

This dynamic, high-energy keynote will help you raise your personal standard of excellence and give you an effortless action plan to put into place immediately.
