Strategic alliances give you a dramatically faster and more cost effective growth option by leveraging the assets of others.  To get these amazing results, you have to be strategic, flexible, and collaborative – but you have to be careful.  50% of alliances fail – by knowing how to choose the right partners you will eliminate squandered time and resources.

Ed's depth of expertise combined with his inspirational style of speaking will leave your audience with a sense of purpose.  Because Ed believes that business is about results not excuses, he delivers ready-to-use tools that will immediately impact their lives and your organization’s profitability.

Business is About Results, Not Excuses!

Do you need better results? I’ve said it time and again; business is about results, not excuses! I'll bet you’ve heard the following three basic excuses far too many times.

1. I’ll get to it later.

2. I don’t know how to do that.

3. I tried, but it didn’t work.

 

Collaboration in the workplace is a necessity for results. In an effort to help your employees achieve better results, try the following replies the next time you hear one of the above excuses:

 

Reply to excuse #1. Your self-talk either fuels or extinguishes your passion to achieve, so could you talk to yourself about something else?

 

Reply to excuse #2. Who in our organization does know? Try developing a partnering alliance with them.

 

Reply to excuse #3. Perhaps it was your method of implementation? What implementation skill or knowledge are you currently missing?

Second is his naturally playful and humorous manner which he uses to relax and disarm his audience members. The result from this combined delivery design is his distinctive ability to move people into action; to do better and be more effective in business and life.
