Chris Gomez Speaking Topics

  • Afterburner's "Joint Force" Keynote

    This Keynote brings together 1 of our Fighter Pilots and 1 of our Navy SEALS to teach the Flawless Execution Methodology but to also emphasize the importance of Communication, Collaboration & Teamwork.

    Think Elite Military Teams are Spartans, tacitly giving and taking orders? Who better than the Afterburner team to share a very different environment; one in which Fighter Pilots, Special Forces, Navy SEALs and other team members from different 'departments' use a process to quickly & collaboratively assess and leverage best practices and innovative solutions to achieve their mission.

    That sounds great, but how do such disparate groups execute at such high levels?Communication is key. Through personal experiences and rare SpecOps & aviation video footage, we detail the tools and techniques used before, during and after missions to create highly engaged, aligned, nearly telepathic teams.

    Speaking of teams, how can we help yours excel as they operate in complex, rapidly changing, challenging and hostile environments? The same way we did

    • not with theories, but with practical skills that will immediately dramatically improve execution in your business!

  • Navy Seal Keynote: Building High Performing Teams - the Navy SEAL way!

    U.S. Navy SEALs are forged by some of the most intensive selection and training processes of any elite military professional in the world. They are a special breed of warrior, capable of conducting missions in any environment. Often operating silently under the cover of darkness, they possess a relentless commitment to individual initiative, personal responsibility and mission accomplishment.

    Learn how our U.S. Navy SEALs selected, trained, planned, led and executed their missions all over the globe. Our Navy SEAL speakers share the tools and techniques SEAL teams use to thrive and survive in rapidly changing and hostile environments. Learn how you too can apply those same tools to any business situation, anytime, anywhere. This exciting, interactive high impact one hour keynote highlights the process the SEALs use to ensure they achieve mission success, and then applies that same process to you and your team. Imagine hearing first hand stories about real-world missions that demonstrate how to leverage this incredible process to drive initiative, accountability and achievement–just like the SEALs.
