Biography

Kevin Brown‘s unconventional path to business and personal success has taught him that winning in business and in life requires anything but conventional thinking. He grew Muskegon, Michigan where his blue-collar roots taught him the value of hard work and determination. With streetwise aptitude and a never quit attitude, he worked his way from the front lines in business to the executive boardroom.

Kevin understands what drives organizational excellence and customer loyalty. He knows first-hand how great brands think, feel and act. He is a branding and culture expert with a 30+ year career in franchise development. He spent the last 20 years of his corporate career as part of a leadership team that built a little- known family business into the #1 franchise in their industry with annual revenues exceeding $2 billion dollars.

The HERO Effect® is a simple philosophy that separates world- class organizations and high performance people from everybody else.

Programs

The Hero Effect® - Creating a Culture of Heroes at Every Level

Kevin has a simple philosophy when it comes to leadership. He believes that you are “a leader of one or a leader of none.” He believes that leadership begins with mastering self along with the daily habits required to become world-class leaders, mentors and coaches to the teams we live and do business with. The foundation of this program can be summed up in one powerful idea…we reproduce what we are!

The role of leadership in an organization is to create an environment where people can be the best version of themselves. That is what serves a brand well and stands out in a crowded marketplace.

This program is designed to help participants:

Create an environment where people are inspired to be the best version of themselves and deliver world-class performance to the people they serve.
Develop a team of people that are committed, focused and on fire for the brand they are helping to build.
Design and deliver an organizational obsession statement that drives high performance and a world-class customer experience.

Key themes:

Heroes Help People…with NO STRINGS ATTACHED!

They go “all in” every time they take the field. They understand that in business and in life it’s always personal and never perfect. Heroes create strong connections and reach beyond the borders of transactional thinking to create transformational moments!

Heroes Create an Exceptional Experience:

The HERO’s calling card is pure excellence. It’s about using their talents, gifts and abilities to their fullest potential and highest purpose. The HERO uses the best of who they are to serve more people, more often, in bigger and better ways. The HERO is committed to personal development and shows up better today than they were yesterday. Heroes build trust by serving others with an authentic passion that turns everyday moments into superhuman experiences. The HERO is driven to serve others and understands that the greatest rewards in life are determined by how well we take care of the people we live and do business with.

Heroes Take Responsibility:

HEROES own the moments that matter! They are actively present and engaged and do not believe in random acts of kindness. The HERO is motivated instead by intentional acts of difference making. They live by a simple code; “bring your best stuff to the present moment and pour it into the lives of others.” They understand that before you can lead anyone else, you must first be able to lead yourself. The HERO owns their attitude, their actions and their results. They are committed to the best possible outcome in every situation regardless of circumstances or events beyond their control. The HERO leads by example and knows that true success is found in the power of simple choices.

Heroes Live and Work with Optimism:

HEROES see the world differently. For them, it’s not about positive thinking, it’s about perspective. Looking through the lens of optimism gives the HERO supernatural vision. They see what others cannot. They see opportunities instead of obstacles – possibilities instead of problems. When things go wrong…and they will, optimism is what helps the HERO turn life’s messes into a masterpiece.

In his signature style, Kevin uses real life stories and examples combined with rich content and humor to drive home The HERO Effect principles and ideas. This program delivers actionable ideas that every leader can implement immediately to begin creating a culture of excellence at every level in their organization.

IDEAL AUDIENCE: This message is applicable to leaders at every level, across all industries. Kevin customizes his stories and deliverables based on the audience’s profile.

FORMAT: 45 to 60 minute keynote; can be followed by a 60 to 90 minute “deep dive” into the actionable ideas shared during the keynote.

” I knew The Hero Effect® was the right message for our audience, but I was really impressed and delighted with the way you connected to our core values and helped our audience relate to your message in those terms – well done! ”

— Marti Greathouse, Helzberg Diamonds

Virtual Keynote (“E-Note”) Options:

A. LIVE-HYBRID KEYNOTE:
This type of event has proven very effective for some of our clients and partners. This allows for a small (socially distanced) crowd to be live onsite for the event while it is live-streamed to remote attendees. This offers a unique environment to re-create the energy, excitement, and impact experienced by a live show.

B. PRE-RECORDED CUSTOMIZED & BRANDED KEYNOTE:
This has become a client favorite. This option allows us to go into the studio and create a fully customized and branded experience for the client while reducing the anxiety of potential technology fails with a live virtual keynote.

C. LIVE VIRTUAL KEYNOTE:
A number of our clients like the live virtual option. This puts us on “on-air” directly from the studio live in real-time for your event. Our studio and events team are well versed in all major platforms used for live virtual events.

Leadership Mini-Series:

This option is for our clients who wish to work with us for several weeks in a virtual learning environment. Kevin will collaborate with you to create custom content that is delivered to the leadership team and key contributors of an organization in a series of 30-45 minute live learning sessions.

Leadership Summit:

This event was born out of repeated client requests for a deeper dive into The HERO Effect content and application. This session is designed for leadership teams as a half-day virtual learning experience or live with Kevin Brown. The retreat is a full three hours of content that is customized to the group based on collaboration with senior leadership.

One-on-One Coaching & Consulting:

Kevin Brown is currently accepting a limited number of coaching and consulting clients. Kevin’s expertise focuses on Culture, Branding, Storytelling/Communication, and Selling.
