Enjoying a More Accomplished, Adventuresome and Satisfying Life – With Others
The Rube Goldberg-style marble ladder contraption on the side table in my second grade class completely captured my attention, more than the teacher’s lesson plan, and I wasn’t the only one. When the recess bell finally rang, instead of going outside, three of us rushed over to re-jigger it so the marbles would have a more zig zaggy way to meander down, from the top to the bottom. That should have been a clue to me then that I’d rather reconfigure or create something new – with others — than to simply learn how things are now.
Inventiveness is increasingly vital, for individuals and organizations, in this technology-enabled Age of Engagement, so you, too, may want to hone the skills needed to tap that talent inside of you.
As a reporter, inventor and co-collaborator on many projects – I have honed three passionate interests that can benefit you, too, in this increasingly complex yet connected world. Now, more than ever, these skills are needed to stay relevant, sought-after and enjoying the true adventure story you were meant to live:
1. Quotability
More than smarts, experience, hard work or even money and attractiveness the key first step to standing out and to attracting involvement is your capacity to get your ideas heard and shared. There is an art and a science to being frequently-quoted.
The A.I.R formula for quotability is as vital to life as oxygen in this connected era:
2. Connectability
Disconcertingly, likeability often trumps competence when people choose whom to support, buy from or befriend, research shows. Discover how to turn more situations into opportunities to connect around a sweet spot of shared interest, using one or more of the 30 Connectability Cues Kare has discovered from tracking behavioral research over the past decade. Use them to bring out the brighter side in others. Only then will they see and support your best side.
3. Collaborative
Inevitably those who become sought-after in any sphere, from personal to social or work settings, have co-created the most tempting offering for their “market.” Understand how to choose one or more of the seven most successful and widely-applicable methods to solve a problem or seize an opportunity:
If you put any of these to use I’m betting that later, looking back on your life, some of your most meaningful memories and friendships will be the result of accomplishing something greater with others than you could have by working alone. You can bring out each others best talents and temperaments by evolving one of these specific structured collaboration methods to your situation
Kare Can Support You in Two Ways
Want to use your best talents more often to accomplish greater things with others? Like to be recognized and rewarded as you hone these traits? Then hire Kare to:
Forbes columnist and Emmy-winning former Wall Street Journal and NBC journalist, Kare Anderson has been a public speaker in 18 countries, speaker at TEDxBerkeley, and consultant to companies, sports teams, startups, government leaders and non-profits as diverse as Google, The Skoll Foundation, London School of Economics, Nordstrom, Siemens, Deloitte, and Novartis.
For Obama’s first presidential campaign she created over 208 issues formation teams. She was Pacific Telesis first Cable TV and Wideband Division Director and a founding board member of Annie’s Homegrown. Anderson co-founded nine women’s political action committees. Her ideas are cited in at least 18 books. She is the author of Getting What You Want, Walk Your Talk, Beauty Inside Out and Resolving Conflict Sooner. People in 28 countries read her blog, Moving From Me to We.
Kare Anderson presents her views on the power of collaboration and the ways in which building relationships can lead to successful business opportunities. She asks her audience to consider, “… what you most long for, think about how you want to do meaningful work with people that are your friends and be loved. And underlying that, there's a core thing that we all long for… focus, beauty and connection."
Kare is a passionate believer in the possibilities of friendly human connection and its transformative effects. As she explains to her audience, “You want to hang out with people different from you… fast thinkers, slow thinkers, there are benefits, optimistic, pessimistic, we're a culture that is hell-bent towards optimism but pessimists can see things that optimistic people don't see. So seeking those people out is like plotting your life to have more meaning, more accomplishment and more fun and more adventure."
On this episode, president Bryan Kramer hosts Kare Anderson, Emmy award-winning journalist with NBC, Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post and author of "Moving from Me to We." Kare believes that "we have to build more authentic collaboration in order to bring more originality to our stories," and discusses her collaborative experience and philosophy on extracting the very best out of people in any situation. Kare's spirited journalistic approach, contagious energy and social enthusiasm makes her one of the most sought after authors, speakers and business coaches of our generation.
"If we feel instinctively liked by someone else then we tend to tend to project unto them the qualities we like in other people...and that's priceless." Those are the wise words of Kare Anderson, expert on the art and science of understanding and perfecting behavioral cues. As she shares, emotion precedes rational thought. In this episode of Revolution, we learn about the importance understanding what we do and don't appreciate in others to improve how we connect and communicate. If you're aware of what of these nuances, you can bring out the best in other people including yourself. Kare's work doesn't just focus on real world or even interactive engagement. She believes that the same techniques can be applied to improve design, user experience, and ultimately relationships.
Kare Anderson presents highly entertaining and engaging keynote speeches that immediately get your attendees engaging with each other. Kare believes in people practicing as they go along, and she teaches the three vital skills for remaining relevant amid the complexity of the modern world; credibility, connectivity and collaboration. Kare goes to great lengths to prepare for all her presentations, customizing them specifically to your area and to current events, using the names of audience members and offering one-on-one confidential coaching sessions as part of her service.
Kare teaches her audience the skills of becoming quotable and collaborative and provides them with a toolkit which will make this become second nature. She shows how you can create smart partnerships that can attract more and higher-spending clients without increasing your outlay. Using a storyboarding technique, Kare can show you how to revamp your online presence so that visitors are constantly stimulated to buy, return and refer others.
One particular special keynote that Kare offers can enormously enhance any exhibition; once the exhibition floor is set up, Kare can provide a “30 tips in 30 minutes” session which will show your exhibitors how they can immediately improve the engagement potential of their stands.
Become a Sought-After Opportunity Maker In our tech-enabled world bad and good can hit faster, travel farther and become more contagious. Thus, more than wealth, talent, hard work or even charisma, the most valuable individuals are those who can recruit the right team to seize opportunities, solve problems and innovate faster and better than others. They share three “mutuality minded” traits: capacity to connect with unexpected allies who have complementary talents, ability to recognize methods that leverage value for all participants and be more deeply connected and widely quoted. Kare literally demonstrates concrete cues to hone these interconnected skills. Nothing optimizes collective performance more than spurring and enabling diverse people to use their best talents together around strong sweet spots of mutual interest. This approach clearly resonates as it has attracted over 2.3 million views of Kare Anderson’s TED talk on this topic.
Hidden Behavioral Cues That Boost or Bust Credibility Your in-person and online actions are never neutral. Those who emanate warmth, competence and a mutuality mindset attitude (how can we accomplish something greater together) are most likely to be trusted as leader, allies and collaborators. Learn from a former NBC and WSJ journalist, who has spent the past decade translating behavioral research into ways to attract and provide smarter support sooner. Gain actionable insights that enable you to accomplish more by adopting a mutuality mindset. From the angle at which you face others to the shape of the room and the sound of your voice, you emanate a presence that is never neutral. Three Outcomes: • Discover how to bring out others' better side sooner so they see and support yours • Practice ways to communicate to connect and spur others’ bragging rights in retelling your ideas • Become the glue that holds diverse groups together so you accomplish more, become indispensable and attract more opportunities
Become the Unforgettable Face of Your Organization Do people stop listening before you stop talking? More than your smarts, good intentions, wealth, or even attractiveness your most vital traits in this increasingly complex, connected and information-flooded world are your capacity to be more widely quoted and deeply connected with diverse, sometimes unexpected allies. That’s the only way to stay relevant and sought-after. Literally see demonstrated the three vital behavioral cues that bring out others’ better side so they naturally see and support yours. Discover seven core methods ways to turn every in-person or virtual situation into an opportunity to demonstrate value and create opportunity with and for others.

From a once phobically shy stutterer-turned-global journalist discover how to turn the next chapter of your life into the adventure story you were truly meant to live with others. As David Rockefeller Jr., said after hearing Kare speak, “She will forever change how you see yourself and your world.”
Turn Employees Into Avid, Articulate Ambassadors of Your Firm’s Brand Perhaps the biggest missed opportunity to attract more customers --and retain top talent -- is to support your employees in engaging with customers, prospects and other key stakeholders in timely and helpful ways. Such connectivity strikes fear into the hearts of many executives, yet the upside benefits can far outweigh the mistakes. With the right rules in place and apt training, employees who are entrusted to be brand ambassadors are likely to strengthen relationships inside and outside your firm, see problems and opportunities sooner, generate greater shared learning with each other and boost esprit de corps. From an expert on communicating-to-connect discover exactly how to make your employees credible and compelling ambassadors for your firm. Three Outcomes: • Optimize your organization's talents and contacts to strengthen relationships with key stakeholders • Solve problems and seize opportunities faster and better by involving more • Spur relevant learning and esprit de corps among employees as they engage more with key stakeholders and with each other around meaningful projects and relationship building
Make Your Event or Public Serving Place More Meaningful by Storyboarding the Sequence of Scenes They Experience Just as a movie director storyboards the sequence of scenes to pull audiences into the story, you can increase the number of positive multi-sensory and human interaction moments your “audience” feels when stepping into your place or event. From the first sight to the last touch, increase the multi-sensory cues that nudge people to participate more fully and meaningfully. Those who manage people-serving places or events can evoke a more memorable experience in staff and those they serve, using Kare’s behavioral research-based storyboarding method. Discover how to conduct an “Exposures Audit”, to then craft the moment-by-moment, one-of-a-kind experiences that others rave about.
