Mastering Your Memory 
Speaker: Tyler Enslin

The human brain possesses an incredible amount of power to store and recall information. Unfortunately, most people are never taught how to fully access this ability. In this fun and highly engaging training, attendees will learn unique and exciting methods to increase their memory skills to extraordinary levels. Most importantly, this program teaches participants how to use these concepts in daily life. Instantly recalling people’s names, giving presentations without notes, increased focus, and improved mental organization are just a few of the practical benefits of this intriguing program. Tyler delivers this session in energetic fashion with no notes or PowerPoint to encourage maximum audience participation in order to impart as much value as possible to all who attend.

Achievement NOW! Elevate Your Success 
Speaker: Tyler Enslin

There seems to be an overwhelming amount of content and speakers available on the subjects of achievement and success. Yet according to Inc. Magazine, 92% of individuals who set yearly goals fail to reach them. Clearly a fresh approach is needed. In this program, Achievement Now - Elevate Your Success, we deliver that approach in a way that is unique, applicable, and engaging.
-  One major advantage of this training is that it is extremely participant focused. While many speakers on the subject of personal growth share their own stories in an attempt to motivate the audience, this program focuses completely on the individual attendees. We have found that people are much more excited and action oriented when they focus on their own goals and their potential to reach them, instead of solely hearing about someone else’s achievements.

-  Additionally in this program, we specifically aim to educate, not motivate. While there can be some benefit from motivational speakers, sustainable personal change takes more than just motivation. This session delivers the education necessary to help participants create permanent habits to drive achievement.
-  Finally this session is highly interactive. As with all of our trainings, Tyler delivers this program using no written notes or PowerPoint presentation. By doing this, it ensures a high level of audience engagement for all of the activities, exercises, and discussions included in this session. Ultimately this creates an organized, yet conversational flow to the training that results in maximum value being delivered to the participants.
