Ty Bennett draws on his own experience in the trenches and his consulting work with powerful brands to share with audiences insight into leadership that works. “Passion means you’re willing to suffer for something you love. Leaders who lack passion have followers who lack commitment. Why would anyone follow you as their leader?” he asks.
Bennett talks about the results of his survey of 5,000 leaders (featured in his new book and presentation Partnership is the New Leadership) and the word that showed up the most when he asked leaders what they wanted from their employees: commitment. “You want your people to be committed,” he says. “But people are not committed to jobs or companies. What drives commitment is leadership; people are drawn to people.”
Leadership expert Ty Bennett shares with his audience the conclusions he has drawn from his intense in-depth research of over 5000 leaders. He tells his audience, “The survey consisted of one simple question; the question was this, as a leader, what do you want from your people? Over 75% of leaders surveyed replied with one single word, commitment."
Ty explains the crucial point which so many leaders miss when they are looking for commitment: “Here's the key, people are not committed to jobs, they're not committed to companies, ultimately, people are committed to people. It's people and relationships that engender trust, that engender respect, that create accountability and ultimately commitment."
It is Ty's thesis that the old ways of leadership have to be changed if leadership is to become truly effective. He explains, “The old way of leadership was based on position, title and authority. You and I both know that people don't follow titles, they follow people, and so think about it, if you and I want commitment out of our people we need to approach leadership in a different way."
Ty Bennett’s seminars focus on leadership, influence and what leaders want from their people-commitment. Ty shares his insights into what keeps people committed to a company. He talks about building relationships and the importance of communication and how these tools will increase your influence and engagement.
Ty’s programs also highlight the value of storytelling and creating an emotional relationship with clients. He stresses the importance of creativity and standing out among your peers as ways of becoming relatable to your audience.
Sharing his tried and tested strategies and techniques which are guaranteed to increase the productivity and commitment of your employees and colleagues, Ty Bennett offers a series of presentations which focus on partnership, influence, storytelling and presentation.
It is Ty’s belief that all business is the business of people, and that you can be trained to have a greater influence over them. He puts forward a roadmap for engaging with your people by being interested in them, not trying to be interesting yourself; his message that you should be investing in your people will lead to significant improvements within your teams.
A sales expert, Ty knows all there is to know about storytelling as a communication and sales strategy. He explains how to choose your stories so that they will engage the emotion and attention of your intended market; once you have engaged the emotional and creative side of the brain your chances of sales are massively increased.
Relevant Leadership Leadership is NOT about your name on the door. Your years in the business. The title you hold or where your office is located. It’s about your people and the significance, value,and connection you share with them. Bottom line? Relevance Equals Influence. Which equals commitment, collaboration, trust, teamwork and performance. Ready to make a transformational change in your business? Raise your relevance and increase your influence.
Partnership is the New Leadership Cultivating Commitment, Collaboration, and Consensus
Over the last five years a survey of more than 5,000 leaders asked one question: what do you want from your people? The overwhelming answer? Commitment. And what it takes to both create and retain that commitment is NOTHING like it used to be. That’s where Business Keynote Speaker and Leadership Expert Ty Bennett is helping organizations bridge the gap between old school mentalities and real-world solutions that connect with team members of every level today.
Consider the adage, “Old ways won’t open new doors.” In Ty’s view, that is the rallying cry for leaders all over the globe. Business is changing. Communication is light years from what it was. People purchase differently. Customer expectation is at an all-time high, and their tolerance at an all-time low. It’s time to open new doors. Adopt new skills. Challenge old mindsets.

In this enlightening keynote, your team will learn how to: • Create consensus and encourage creativity • Overcome the three biggest obstacles that cause leaders to fail • Master conversational leadership • Develop a more connected and cohesive team • Adopt essential relationship skills that cultivate commitment
Leading with fear or trading on titles is no longer effective. In their place, partnership, communication, inclusion, and connection have become game-changers.

Encourage collaboration. Deliver value. Inspire ideas and insights. And yes, fuel commitment amongst team members to do more, reach higher, and develop their own leadership skills.
The Power of Storytelling Cultivating Connection and Strengthening Engagement
500% better. That’s how much more we retain information when told to us in the context of a story. Five hundred percent! Why? Because communication plus storytelling creates connection. Invokes passion. Engages emotions. And most importantly? Moves people to take ACTION. Teaching audience members to effectively and creatively adopt the skills and mindsets necessary to communicate at their highest level is exactly what Business Keynote Speaker Ty Bennett delivers in this game-changing topic.
Essentially? We are ALL in the business of people. Developing relationships, cultivating trust, and weaving a connection that allows for deeper understanding is ultimately a big part of why we are all here. Life is all about contribution – and how we connect through communication determines our level of influence. With heart and high-energy, Ty teaches leaders and sales professionals to adopt valuable storytelling skills to leverage that influence, extend their emotional reach, and even create customers for life.

In today’s world, the right communication skills top the list of the most valuable tools sales that business professionals can cultivate. By mastering the art of storytelling communication your team can connect more. Close more. Retain more. And develop long-term valuable relationships both personally and professionally.

SPEAKING.COM: What do you want people to learn / take away from your presentations?
BENNETT: I teach sales and leadership groups how to develop more influence with their clients, customers and teams. I want them to learn specific strategies and techniques that they can apply when they walk out the door that are going to make them more influential in their leadership roles. I also want them to come away inspired to take action and make a bigger impact.
SPEAKING.COM: What kind of special prep work do you do prior to an event? How to you prepare for your speaking engagements?
BENNETT: I do my own research on the company and then we have an in depth call with the event team to discuss the theme, key messages, agenda, purpose of the event as well as the struggles, success and triumphs of the team. Depending on the group, I often do calls to top leaders or key individuals to discuss further what they are dealing with on a daily basis. That entire prep works allows me to customize to each group.
SPEAKING.COM: Have you had any particularly memorable speaking engagements / unusual situations arise while on the road?
BENNETT: I think the life of a road warrior is always fun and memorable :-). I had a really cool situation last week that sticks out. I was traveling home from a speaking engagement and I looked across the aisle on the airplane and the gentleman across from me was reading my book! I said, “What book is that?” He held it up and said, “The Power of Influence.” I asked if it was good and he said, “I like it so far.” I said, “Good, because I wrote it.” He was shocked and I had to show him my headshot on the last page for him to believe me.
SPEAKING.COM: What types of audiences would most benefit from your message?
BENNETT: I primarily speak to sales and leadership groups. Those that are entrenched in the people business and want to increase their influence are the perfect groups for my message.

BENNETT: This is hard to explain but it is what I feel like I am meant to do. I have a talent for speaking, I have had great experience in business that has given me key insights and I have a desire to impact the most people possible. So it is a perfect fit.
SPEAKING.COM: Which of your keynote topics are the most popular? Which of your keynote speeches do you enjoy the most and why?
BENNETT: • Partnership Is The New Leadership • The Power of Influence • The Power of Storytelling
I enjoy each of these three speeches for different reasons.
Partnership Is The New Leadership (which has become my most popular speech) is a total shift in approach and mindset for leaders. It gets them thinking about leadership in a new way and allows me to share relevant case studies and techniques of today’s most effective leaders.
In The Power of Influence I share great strategies to build influential relationships that work for both salespeople and leaders. I also get to share some great inspiration in this speech.
And The Power of Storytelling is very hands on, breaking down techniques that can help sales people share their story more effectively. I love feeling as though I have taught a skill set.
SPEAKING.COM: What are some of the successes you’ve helped clients make?
BENNETT: On the sales side, I have many testimonials about the increase in sales that have come as a result of my sessions. On the leadership, what I typically hear about is the change in culture that begins with the change in the leaders who attend my speech.
