It’s not about finding meaning in your work, it’s about bringing meaning to your work. It’s not about doing work that you love, but rather loving the work that you do. One is external and the other internal. Across our society professionals have been spending too much time focused on external meaning vs bringing meaning to their work, even in the most challenging of circumstances. Read More >

In this inspiring and personal keynote, Justin will challenge you to identify or reconnect with your why (purpose) and to live it out now (passion) in order to achieve meaningful success. Too much focus on the “why” can lead to being stymied by indecision leading to little or no action. Too much focus on the “now” can lead to increasing impulsivity and bad decisions. Learn how a clarifying blend of both the “why” and the “now” can help you to ultimately achieve more. Read More >

Organizations and leaders do NOT create employee engagement – they simply control the temperature with which people can thrive or struggle to bring their meaning to and best work everyday. It’s time to get out of the way of your awesome talent and inspire them to work with meaning. In this presentation you learn how to stop moving your employees and start motivating them. You will learn why you should see the best in your people (based on powerful 1968 study that still holds true today). You will also learn why most employee engagements strategies don’t work and to create a true culture of engagement. High-performing leaders are remembered, not because they focused on themselves, but because they focused on something bigger than themselves. Justin shares his research, practical tips and his experiences (successes and failures) to help you to LEAD! Like You Mean It. Read More >

We’ve been talking about “diversity” for the last two decades, and it’s lost its meaning.
