The most hysterical, inspiring and jaw-dropping meeting you will ever have!
This original and most popular program appeals to all types of events as it’s designed for executive leaders, to business owners as well as the “It’s my first day” participants.

It’s not enough to ‘just’ show up, be ‘just’ an employee, or to stick with the status quo. In today’s world, merely meeting an expectation can be like doing nothing at all. Organizations need every team member and leader to show up strong and perform every day. And don’t we all want to be appreciated, respected and recognized for how we surprise and delight our customers, our team or our boss? Of course, we do! However, we struggle with mindsets, the unknown and the fact that we’re so busy JUST trying to make it through the day. To solve this, Jon will prove peak performance is simpler than you think. That you can perform at your best when the spotlight may suddenly shine and create a true SHOWTIME moment to be remembered. By combining the power of NOW, with the power of WOW you will leave this keynote experience and never be “JUST” anything ever again.

At any given time – it might be YOUR time to fully engage, achieve greatness – and rise above the rest. You might not be expecting the spotlight, but when it hits – we must perform at our best. That’s SHOWTIME! Jon will share how your team or attendees can be ready, willing, and excited to take the spotlight and make a difference in their role, this conference and in life.

If you are looking for the engagement and WOW to open your conference or event – this is it! This high energy and entertaining keynote is perfect for the opening keynote presentation, all associate meetings and personal development

Boring Meetings Suck!

Right? It’s a different world we live in today. Rhetoric and routine won’t fuel your organization to outperform the competition. It won’t inspire your sales staff to set new records. Or help your leadership team create innovative solutions for guiding your company to exponential growth. What will? Jon’s take-no-prisoners approach to crafting communication meetings that blow the doors off the old way of doing things.   Based on Jon’s best-selling book of the same name which has taken the business world by storm and been featured on CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, ABC and CBS News, USA Today and many more – it’s changing the way companies do business – and they are loving the results.

You will too. In this powerhouse session your attendees will learn how to…

Don’t settle for boring. Or basic. Or the dreaded “same way it’s always been done” ever again. Instead help your team fire on all cylinders, jet-propel your productivity and save all the time, effort and energy you’d lose in dull discussions to set lofty, achievable new goals, take on tough competitors and nurture greatness within every member of your team. Your company is worth it – and so are they.

About Keynote Speaker Jon Petz

Ever meet one of those people born to be on a stage? That’s Jon – and that’s why he left the corner office, company car, country club membership and highly successful career as a corporate Vice President to fulfill his purpose and passion to challenge others to laugh louder, perform better and Achieve More!

After that? There was no turning back. With a unique skillset, a purposeful presence, and the kind of energy that seems to transform a room – he gets audiences on their feet, and to the edge of their seats hungry for the innovative insights and game-changing solutions he shares for leaders, teammates and organizations. As a motivational speaker, event or conference emcee or business magician, he engages and energizes the crowd. He uses his amazing art of performance, inspiring stories and his unique “It’s Showtime” performance philosophy to bring home the belief and very real desire to create greater impact in what we do and with the people we do it for. It’s at this point we begin to demonstrate and achieve the sense of significance and making a difference.

How did he get started? Jon Petz is not a business magician who decided to turn “opening keynote speaker.” He’s a relatable “everyman” who has worked in a warehouse, flipped burgers, driven a forklift, sat in the cubicle, made cold calls, managed in corporate America, competitively grew a highly successful sales career, and managed a national sales team across 52 offices. His ability to draw on these experiences and more allow him to resonate with audience members with humor – and the human touch. With Jon, there’s no “Diva” or drama. And that? Makes him a favorite for corporate audiences, association events, event planners, and leadership teams. Bottom line? He gets people. From all backgrounds, positions, and diversities – and they get him because when they laugh, they learn more. When he connects from the heart because he’s walked a time in their ‘shoes’ – they pay attention. They can see themselves in the answers. And that? Makes all the difference.

When he’s not on the road wowing audiences and empowering others to realize significance, he is at home with the real stars of the show, his beautiful wife and daughters.

Testimonials

What impresses me most is that you deliver so much more than humor. You have a unique ability to connect your gifted talents to predetermined organizational objectives and deliver them in such a unique way that one cannot help but retain…long after the event.

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I heard such great feedback from everyone. You kept the group very engaged all while sending a great message. It was apparent that you studied our business and incorporated that well. I can’t believe what it took for you to get there and I do really appreciate you making it happen. Many people would have sat back and called it a day! I will be sure to spread the word to my colleagues.

Global Sales Kickoff Meeting

Jon’s customer service presentation was the most talked about session and one of the best reviewed classes we’ve ever offered over our two-day training. We set up a pre-event call to discuss our audience and the topics we’d like him to touch on; he did his research and delivered a very personalized presentation with lots of humor, a touch of magic and lots of applicable information. He was so easy to work with and I would absolutely bring him back for another conference!

Jon is one of the most engaging speaker/emcee we have worked with over my many years of hosting corporate events. It was clear that Jon had invested significant time to understand his audience and our company, which made him so much more relevant. Our guests were thrilled with his style, substance, talent and humor — he delighted us all and we can’t wait to invite Jon back.

Vice Chairman, US Bank, Customer Service Incentive Trip

 

You clearly exceeded our expectations. Everyone was locked on you – nobody was checking their mobile device, I mean NOBODY – you had their full attention, which is difficult to do at a firm like ours.
