Beginner’s Pluck Unlock Growth & Impact by learning how to channel your “Inner Beginner"

In this talk, Liz Bohannon challenges ubiquitous self-help platitudes and will leave your people feeling inspired, energized, and EMPOWERED to launch out of waiting and into creating.

By exploring some of the key principles from her Bestselling Book, Beginner’s Pluck: Build Your Life of Purpose & Impact Now, Liz Bohannon challenges participants to start with smaller steps so they can start doing instead of dreaming, and shows how curiosity over criticism fuels innovation. She sets the stage for the audience to take a personal journey down the ultimate path of success by weaving passion & purpose into their every goal.

Tangible Takeaways

BIG DEAM Energy: What matters more than the size of your dream or goal is the size of the ENERGY you give them. When we treat our goals and dreams (regardless of size!) like they are deserving of BIG DREAM energy, we launch out of waiting and into creating and will create massive impact in the world.
Reframing Failure: Both individually and organizationally, long-term success is driven not by people who are avoiding failure but by people who embrace the right kind of failure and use those “Pluck Ups” as an opportunity to propel themselves and their causes forward.
Choosing Curiosity Over Criticism: Anyone can be a critic. It’s easy to sit on the sidelines and point out how things could be done better. When we create cultures that promote and reward curiosity and collaboration over criticism and competition, we win in the long run with better results and happier, healthier people.

The Community Quotient Designing Workplaces for Connection & Impact

The focus on creating connected workplace cultures has been building momentum over the past few years, and now is the time to create a fusion between why it is important and how to do it, and that is at the heart of this energizing and soulful presentation from Liz Bohannon. Participants learn from Liz’s experiences as a leader of a global brand and what it takes to create meaningful connection across your organization that is grounded in a sense of purpose and driven by impact. Growing your company as a connected community is the only way to inspire the kind of collaboration and innovation that will keep you rising to the next level even in the face of change and uncertainty.

Tangible Takeaways

Understanding the importance of connection and social health: We are in the midst of a “Loneliness Epidemic” in America. However, science shows that the quality of our relationships is the #1 predictor of health, happiness, and longevity. Organizations with strong “Community Quotients” are more effective at attracting top talent, galvanizing their people, and accomplishing their mission.
Community is not something that can be consumed; it has to be created: From the CEO to the intern, each person has the power to be an agent of connection and social health within the organization, and it doesn’t have to be complicated. Simple yet intentional changes in daily rhythms that prioritize people and nurture community ultimately pave the way for long-term success.
