Peter Bregman Speaking Topics

  • You CAN Change Other People: The Four Steps to Help Your Employees, Colleagues – Even Family – Up Their Game

    “You can’t change other people. You can only change yourself.” It’s a truism. Only it’s not true.

    In fact, if you’re a leader or a manager in an organization – if you’re a coach – you have to change other people. It’s your job. If you’re a parent, it’s your job too. And if you care about the people in your life who aren’t reaching their potential or, worse, are acting in self-destructive ways, it’s your longing.

    The problem isn’t that you can’t change other people, the problem is that the things you do and say to try to change them don’t work because you’re doing and saying the wrong things. In fact, most likely you’re having the opposite effect.

    What does work? That’s the focus of this session. We’ll look at the 4 fundamentals that need to exist for people to make sustainable change, and we’ll share the Four Steps – the straightforward, methodical, and replicable process for reliably helping other people change.

    Key Takeaways:

    • Understand why it’s been so difficult to help other people change – and what we typically do that makes it even harder.
    • Identify the 4 powers people need to make sustainable change.
    • Learn the Four Steps – the straightforward and replicable process for reliably helping other people change.

  • Leading with Emotional Courage

    Based on his book Leading with Emotional Courage: How to Have Hard Conversations, Create Accountability, and Inspire Action on Your Most Important Work, bestselling author Peter Bregman unlocks the secrets of highly successful leaders – no matter their role or level in the hierarchy – and pinpoints the missing ingredient that makes all the difference: emotional courage.

    Emotional courage distinguishes powerful leaders from weak ones. It means speaking up when others are silent and remaining steadfast, grounded and measured in the face of uncertainty. It means responding productively to political opposition—maybe even bad-faith backstabbing—without getting sidetracked, distracted or losing your focus.

    In this engaging and interactive talk, Peter shows audiences:

    • Why emotional courage is important, and examples of its power
    • Why the best leaders have confidence in themselves, the ability to connect with others, and commitment to a purpose – and how emotional courage is the key to unlocking all of those factors
    • What it feels like—experientially through fun and effective exercises—to have emotional courage
    • How to use emotional courage to initiate hard conversations, create accountability, and inspire focused action on your most important work.
    • This speech is a guide for becoming a great leader. A leader who has the power to speak with courage to align teams, inspire action, and achieve stellar results.
