Simon T. Bailey sets out his theory of the necessity for brilliance to an Australian audience. Urging his listeners to steer away from the everyday, he says, “Newsflash! Ordinary is over. Giving an average experience is like done. Average is dead. Nowadays people have more choices than they ever did before, they are looking for that experience that so connects with them." Explaining how to adapt to the new business environment, he says, “Salespeople need to stop selling and start connecting, because when you sell, that's a transaction, but when you connect, that's a relationship."

He shows that by making brilliant change you can be noticed by leaders, inspire your employees, connect with your customers and inflate your bottom line.
