Speakers That Don’t Suck

Presentations and workshops for businesses looking to grow

Book Intrigue Speaker

 

Empower your team to strengthen their communities and inspire action with our bespoke workshops, seminars, and presentations.

Topics

 

Growth on Purpose

A workshop that will introduce the concept of the Growth Triangle. You’ll learn how building a more purpose-driven company will attract the best customers and talent for your business and accelerate your growth.

Empowering Leaders to Strengthen Communities

True leaders lead themselves, serve others, and win the hearts of their followers before asking for their hands. We believe that by amplifying the voices of leaders like you — and by focusing on becoming leaders ourselves — we can help make the world a better place.

SMART Approach to Recruiting

Build a strong foundation for your business by working with an A-team that will bring you A-players. A Strategic Marketing Approach to Recruiting Talent (The SMART Method) includes the following steps:

1. Talk with Your Current Top Team Members – these are your Ambassadors

2. Attract & Recruit Using Today’s Tools

3. Welcome Your Next Top Performers

Marketing to Attract Your A-Client

Your A-Clients are the clients that love working with you. A-Clients refer you, smile when they see you, and understand the full value of what you do for them. They are Awesome Clients!

Your business needs to focus on these people, and these people alone. In this working session you’ll learn how to frame your story in a way that will capture your A-Clients and attract more of them.

Leadership Training & Coaching

Intrigue’s leadership training and coaching programs will result in measurable and sustainable results for your bottom line.
