GARRISON WYNN Speaker, Advisor, Author & Entertainer
Success is more than being good at what you do, it's about being consistently chosen to do it.
Garrison Wynn is a motivational speaker who helps people learn how to make the jump from being great at what they do to understanding and developing the qualities it takes to be chosen for the job. He gets them to understand why their products, services, or leadership styles or those of their competitors are selected. As Garrison Wynn says, “If the world agreed on what's best, everybody would choose the best and nothing else would be considered. Decision making doesn't work that way.”
As a motivational speaker, advisor, author and entertainer, Garrison Wynn has worked with some of the world's most effective corporate leaders and salespeople, from multibillion-dollar manufacturers to top New York Stock Exchange wire houses. He has a background in manufacturing, entertainment, telecommunications, and financial services. Garrison Wynn started as a sales and marketing person in a branch office of a Fortune 500 company at age 24 and was chosen to be department head at corporate headquarters three years later. He researched and designed processes for 38 company locations nationwide, developed, and marketed products still being sold in 30 countries. An experienced actor in films and a former professional stand-up comedian, Garrison Wynn has hosted television specials and national radio programs. Garrison has joined best-selling authors Stephen R. Covey, Ken Blanchard and Jack Canfield in a new book “Speaking of Success”.

The Truth About Success Being the Best vs. Being Consistently Chosen
Success is more than being good at what you do; it's about being consistently chosen to do it. Garrison helps people to understand why their products, services, or leadership styles - or those of their competitors - are selected. People don't necessarily choose what's best; they choose what they are most comfortable with, whether it's the best or not. We've all heard the importance of "best practices" and superior knowledge, so why aren't the smartest people with the most information always in charge or number one in their field? This keynote provides original research on managing expectations and emotions and shows that there really is more to success than being the best.

Getting Great Results Turning Talent Into Performance

Participants learn to manage their ego-driven top producers, how to listen like leaders and make their people feel heard, how to hire for talent and turn it into top performance, how to create a culture of excellence with their most promising people, and how to help their low performers to fight their way to the middle.

The Real Truth about Success
What the Top 1% Do Differently and Why They Won't Tell You
A decade of Wynn Solutions research reveals what makes owners and managers of top-performing businesses so effective and it's not what you'd expect! If you enter this keynote session expecting to learn all about best practices and superior products, you'd better read the title again. Standout success in a difficult economy often comes from personal advantage whether it's cosmetic, leadership communication, personality, resources or access to privileged information.
Top performers rarely acknowledge this because it tends to make their success sound less impressive or undeserved. Prepare to laugh and learn as Garrison leads program segments that include:
* Lies about success and why we believe them
* From interview to confession: The research
* Why would anybody want to be in a fair fight?
* Create your own advantage in leadership and business development
* The truth about success™
* Being the best vs. being consistently chosen
* Action and adaptability create opportunity
* Establish a repeatable process for success

Through a collaborative toolkit, this program delivers the tips and strategies you need to make people see the value of your ideas so you're well positioned to gain agreement. Program segments include:
