This session covers a lot of ground and provides no-cost, easily implemented, proven solutions that your people can use right away. Available in Motivational, Sales and Management versions
The Truth About Success Being the Best vs. Being Consistently Chosen™ Success is more than being good at what you do; it′s about being consistently chosen to do it. Garrison helps people to understand why their products, services, or leadership styles-or those of their competitors-are selected. People don′t necessarily choose what′s best; they choose what they are most comfortable with, whether it′s the best or not. We′ve all heard the importance of "best practices" and superior knowledge, so why aren′t the smartest people with the most information always in charge or number one in their field? This keynote provides original research on managing expectations and emotions and shows that there really is more to success than being the best. Available in Sales, Leadership and Customer Service versions
Getting Great Results Turning Talent Into Performance In this keynote, results from the largest management survey ever conducted are combined with real-life management and leadership solutions to get the most from your people, regardless of their skill level. Participants learn to manage their ego-driven top producers, how to listen like leaders and make their people feel heard, how to hire for talent and turn it into top performance, how to create a culture of excellence with their most promising people, and how to help their low performers to fight their way to the middle. Available in Leadership and Management versions
Generations Working Better Together This extremely informative, entertaining, solutions-based session explores why younger and older people don’t see eye to eye and what to do about it in the workplace. From pointers on motivating, managing and retaining younger employees to ways of preventing older managers from losing their minds, this research-based program shows it’s possible for baby boomers and Gen X and Y employees to work well together.
The Real Truth About Success: What the Top 1% Do Differently and Why They Won′t Tell You
A decade of Wynn Solutions research reveals what makes owners and managers of top-performing businesses so effective – and it′s not what you′d expect! If you enter this keynote session expecting to learn all about best practices and superior products, you′d better read the title again. Standout success in a difficult economy often comes from personal advantage – whether it′s cosmetic, leadership communication, personality, resources or access to privileged information.
Top performers rarely acknowledge this because it tends to make their success sound less impressive or undeserved. Prepare to laugh and learn as Garrison leads program segments that include:
How to Win an Unfair Fight: Influencing People You Have No Authority Over
A great idea rarely wins out on its own merit. Sound, well-structured logic regularly loses out to mediocre ideas from people who really know how to influence. This enlightening, research-based session delves into the human condition, revealing that the true key to influence is not intelligence or logic, but an understanding of what people really value. Through a collaborative toolkit, this program delivers the tips and strategies you need to make people see the value of your ideas so you′re well positioned to gain agreement. Program segments include:
Influence in Action: How to Consistently Hold People Accountable
Great ideas are rarely good enough to get people to take action. Sound, well-structured logic regularly loses out to mediocre ideas from leaders who really know how to influence. This high-impact, research-based session focuses on revealing the true key to accountability: not intelligence or strategy, but an understanding of what makes people feel valuable. In this entertaining, interactive and sometimes brutally honest session, Garrison shows executives how to create a culture of accountability, even among employees at different performance levels. You’ll learn how to push your average and low performers to reach a higher level and how to hold ego-driven top performers accountable without causing them (or you) to lose the will to live.

Joan Robbins, PMP Technical Project Manager, Global Infrastructure Technology Process Planning Organization, Schering-Plough Pharmaceuticals Corporation
I am thrilled to have been able to attend 2 of your presentations. They were interesting, funny, thought-provoking and educational. Your skill and talent as a professional speaker is evident. Your thoughts and ideas are concise and insightful. Thank you so much for presenting for my organization. You met and exceeded all of our expectations. Randi Klein, CPIM, C.P.M. Alpha Wire Company
Garrison did a fantastic job! We had to split our group in half and he did two one-hour programs back to back. He delivered “very customized” programs the same way with equal impact. We shot video of the sessions and sent them to be viewed by a location in Phoenix that could not attend our event. They gave the same great feed back as the groups that attended the live presentation. Steve Malfitano, National Sales Director, USAA
Garrison, your presentation was terrific! The entire team took something away! Richard Kase, CEO, Cypress Health Care
Excellent! Mixing humor with serious topics and talking with the audience instead of to the audience, kept everyone involved. Conoco-Phillips
