Speakers: Get Mentally Tough! STOP Sucking Up to Audiences

By Steve Siebold

Many of the speakers with whom I’ve worked over the past 25 years at national and international conventions are suck-ups. They’re good speakers with bad strategy, which is why many of them struggle. Corporations hire smart people that speak, and they’re looking for unique solutions to pressing problems. What they don’t need is a speaker telling their teams how great they are when most of them are underperforming. To be relevant as a thought leader, you need do your research and tell them the truth. That’s how you stay in companies for years and score million-dollar, multi-year contracts. Watch this video

The Genius of Personal Development…Larry Wilson

By Steve Siebold

He was the protege of Dr. Abraham Maslow, and he’s widely considered one of the most influential figures in the history of personal development. Larry Wilson was a true genius, and I was lucky enough to call him my mentor and close friend for the last 15 years of his life. His company, Wilson Learning has offices in 80 countries around the world. In 2007, I interviewed Larry in front of a packed house of 2,000 people in Mexico City, and it was game changer for so many of us. This is a MUST-SEE interview, which you can access for free

The Most OFFENSIVE Coaching Question EVER

By Steve Siebold

Along the course of facilitating critical thinking sessions with leaders and senior executive teams over the past 25 years, I’ve discovered one question that pierces the ego of even the most senior leaders. Critical thinking questions, by definition, are emotionless and non-judgmental, although they sound like the opposite. I’ve used them with professional sports teams, politicans, Fortune 500 executive teams, and billionaire entrepreneurs. (including one in the White House) The process worked so well for Johnson & Johnson’s leaders in the 1990’s that they paid me to write a book on the subject. The only downside of this process is that

How Rich People Think

By Steve Siebold

When I wrote my book, How Rich People Think, I didn’t know how much controversey it would cause. Rich celebrities like Wynonna Judd, Kathie Lee Gifford and John Tesh LOVED it, while others, such as LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, HATED it. The subject of money is emotional for many people. In this video I discuss the first chapter, which wound a lot of people up. #personaldevelopment #mentaltoughness

Champions Use Emotional Motivators

By Steve Siebold

One the great secrets of personal development and world-class success is the use of deep emotion to drive motivation. Many people try to use money to motivate, but it rarely works because it’s rooted in logic. After 23 years of conducting corporate turn-arounds with Fortune 500 companies, I still see low performing leaders make this mistake. Watch this short video and start leveraging the power of emotion with yourself and those you lead. #personaldevelopment #mentaltoughness

Wealth Reduces Suffering

By Steve Siebold

The International Personal Development Association is dedicated to reducing human suffering around the world. One of the tools that works is wealth. In the first world, lack of money is the most common form of stress and suffering. It causes people to make short term, poor decisions. It contributes to depression, divorce and suicide. And yet just a little increase in a family’s wealth can substantially reduce these negative outcomes. This is one of the topics we’ll be exploring in the association. Watch this video to get started on this subject, and if you’ve already solved your money issues, teach these

World-Class Coaching Step #1

By Steve Siebold

What’s the difference between a $50,000/yr coach and a $10,000,000/yr coach? The honest answer is not much, yet the subtle strategies employed by world-class coaches make a substantial impact. Especially when it comes to coaching someone in personal development. In this video, I pull from chapter one of the million-copy best seller, 177 Mental Toughness Secrets of the World Class. Most coaches don’t have the guts to use this strategy, which is a disservice to their students/clients. Watch this video and I’ll look forward to your comments. #personaldevelopment #mentaltoughness #coaching
