The 5 Leadership Secrets of the World's Most Productive and Best-Performing Companies - Jason's speeches are based on the study that he and his research teams conducted-of more than 160,000 companies-for his NY Times-bestselling books: It's Not The Big That Eat The Small -It's The Fast That Eat The Slow (the fastest companies in the world), Less Is More (the world's most productive companies) and Think BIG-Act Small (the world's best performing in revenue and profit growth). The typical keynote speech or seminar reveals five leadership traits that Jason and his research team discovered to be common to the best-performing companies, traits that they use to be faster and more productive and innovative, to drive customer satisfaction, to gain employee/worker buy-in, and to consistently grow revenues and profits. The five points selected vary according to the audience and the needs of the company or sponsoring organization. Each of Jason's keynote speeches is customized according to the needs of the audience. The final content is mutually determined during an hour-long diagnostic telephone conference with the sponsoring organization's CEO, and a series of follow-up telephone interviews with people who will be attending the event.
