THE ART OF FLOW – The Key to High Performance We have all had moments when we feel like we are in the zone. Where we feel focused, completely engaged, exhibit positive emotions, where our mind set is positive and optimistic, where time disappears and we feel in control of what we are doing. When we have moments like these we are in a psychological state called FLOW. In this presentation Dr Adam Fraser will unpack what is FLOW and how we can access this high performance state more often, both as an individual and as a team. Specific Takeaways: Your team will walk away with the following:
Outcomes:
The greatest challenge in business within the next decade - is not the amount we have to do, as this shows no signs of lessening - instead it’s the way we transition between tasks. People will be challenged around their own behaviour and how they affect the organisation. Rather than constantly asking what can the organisation do to engage ‘me’, this presentation will challenge them to identify what action they can take to engage themselves at work.
Outcomes: This presentation gets people to be personally responsible for how they "show up". Your team will leave this presentation with greater awareness around the fact that they all have an impact on culture and the performance of other people in their team. Also they will reflect on whether they "show up" as a Victim, Persecutor, Detractor or Passenger and skills to stop this from happening. Rehab your Habits Many people adopt destructive habits that lead to poor performance, reduced productivity, few tasks being completed, conflict within the work place, high levels of stress, exhaustion, disengagement and negative emotion. Our habits determine our success and productivity. In most cases individuals are not aware of the fact that their habits are detrimental and even if they are, they find it very difficult to change them. This presentation walks people through a process of rehabilitating their detrimental habits. This high content yet tongue in cheek presentation will take you through the 9 steps to rehabilitating your habits. They are: • Admitting you have a problem • Auditing your habits • Conducting an intervention • Getting an action plan • Going into rehab (in - patient) • Getting support • Setting up your environment to support the new habit • Coming out of rehab (out – patient) • What to do when you relapse Outcomes This presentation gets individuals and teams to assess and evaluate their habits. It encourages them to be mindful and self reflective about their behaviour as an individual and a team member. They leave being much more strategic about how they are spending their time and with an action plan and tool kit on how they can alter their habits to ones that will increase performance and engagement. |
Feedback from the Australian Tourism Export Council "AMAZING! Loved every minute - by far the best speaker of the day." "AMAZING, eye-opening, a travesty that he was cut short by others, stick him in the middle next time with unlimited time, I'd have missed ANY OTHER speaker (and both politicians) to have had this guy give his full presentation. Can't wait to see him again" "FANTASTIC! Great finish to the day. Very impressed and very inspired!" "Great to have a motivational presentation to wake us all up from the day's conferencing. There was great key points touched on and now i stop and consider what Zone I’m in on a day to day basis not only at work but also at home. Thanks Dr. Adam Fraser from me, my boss and my fiancée." "This was a wonderful and very motivating presentation. It was great to finish with Adam. He really captured the audience and had us all wanting more." "Dr Fraser was the highlight of the day and could have listened for hours. Bring Dr Fraser back next year!" Feedback from AHRI Conference 2011 "Dr indeed! I feel like I just received the medicine for the illness that I've been trying for so long to get over - transition-between-work-and-homitis! FANTASTIC. Watched some of Adam's stuff prior to the conference and was very excited about this presentation. He was fantastic and so entertaining at the same time. I will be putting him on my 'one to watch' list!" "One of the most amazing speakers I have seen. The 'third space' concept is a great tool to appy personally as well as to leaders of my organisation." "Dr Fraser is an excellent presenter and held my attention the whole time. This was possibly the best presentation of the convention and very practical and relevant for me personally." "One of my favourite session for the conference. Adam was funny, upbeat and delivered a brilliant presentation. Sessions like these are terrific for HR Practitioners in stand alone roles as we don't often get to share or bounce how we're feeling or coping with the multiple roles that we fulfil. He gave us some really practical tips and I'm looking forward to his book being launched. Fantastic session - I loved it!" Adam had great energy and was very entertaining, but underneath that he had some amazing concepts which I have already started to apply in my life with a positive result. Fantastic session!" "Dr Adam Fraser's presentation to our members and suppliers was extremely well received in a really interactive atmosphere that proved to be a genuine kickstart keynote session for our National Meeting. This was evidenced by a number of people discussing aspects of Adam's concepts during the afternoon tea and at the session conclusion." "Adam speaks to the heart, connects with people. He opens minds to the thoughts that maybe they can do something differently, that problems may not always be someone elses fault" "Adams presentation style was unique and his presentation was extremely engaging. Adam approached guests before and after his presentation, which in a small country region, was valued. Adam’s content was challenged by our mix of audience, however he stepped up and adapted the content to best suit the mix and he succeeded” "Dr Adam Fraser is a real motivator with some great stories. His seminar was very enthusiastic and enjoyable. I would highly recommend him to other businesses looking to motivate their staff" "Dr Adam Fraser's session on Flow was one of the highlights of our national conference. His dynamic style combined with very relevant material really got everyone talking and thinking" "Dr Adam Fraser is inspirational and motivational with the content of his presentations highly relevant for professional and personal life. He has tools that can easily and readily applied upon return to the workplace and was by far one of the standouts of the event" "Adam was an amazing speaker - not only in his capacity as a presenter, but also with regards to working with him. As a presenter he was accessible, approachable, funny yet informative and very thought-inspiring. To work with, he was patient, helpful and not-demanding at all. I would not hesitate to recommend him." "Dr. Adam Fraser recently presented at the ISES Sydney Connect event…his international knowledge, creative approach to work/life balance and desire to connect with people made him a natural fit.Adam’s speech was passionate, easy to understand and engaging with the 45 minutes seeming like only 20.Our members and guests all walked away with clear ‘take outs’ and the feedback ISES has received has been very positive indeed." "Our Sales Teams found Dr Adam Fraser to be a very engaging speaker. He presented to one of our Teams about 6 months ago and there was strong demand to have him back for this Team as well as our other Sales Teams. His material was extremely relavant and thought provoking. He was again a bit hit and delivered real practical value." "Adam spent the day with our Executive team. Executive level staff can be difficult to cater for but Adam is very credible dealing with people at this level. He backs up what he says with facts, is engaging, and knows his stuff. The team enjoyed the day and they each have reported taking something different away from it so it truely did cater for the range of personality styles." "Dr Adam Fraser's presentation inspires and educates all who see him. His mixture of humour, knowledge and insightful comments ensure his sessions are packed to capacity." "Your Presentation was amazing - the energy in the room was testament to your ability to entertain and engage the audience. Even though your presentation was entertaining, it was full of solid information and tips that people can practically take away and implement." "Adam was fantastic. It was my second time in his audience and I was entertained as much as the first time. Adam moulds interesting research results and statistics into a humorous, informative and engaging presentation. It is a great reminder on how to better look after ourselves, if we want to work more happily and productively. Adam’s presentation lead us to reflect on our work environment and showed us how important it is to sit up and question our mindsets, especially in regard to our rituals, habits and health." “Adam doesn’t give you the option to NOT walk away with something – BRILLANT SPEAKER” "I just wanted to say thank you for your help in booking Adam for our workshop yesterday, everyone is still raving about it this morning! They found it extremely useful, mainly because it was so relevant and provided tips that we could implement immediately. Adam is a fantastic presenter and I am sure we as a firm will be using him again in the future." "This is the second time I have used Adam as a speaker for a client event and I cannot recommend him highly enough. In fact, on both occasions the audience were left energised and inspired and wanting to apply his ideas in their own workplace. I would say he’s one of the best corporate speakers in the business!" "Adam’s speech was high energy, entertaining and thought provoking. My managers and team leaders now have a clear understanding of how they can better prepare and motivate themselves, and their teams, during times of high pressure and the accompanying stress that results. I would strongly recommend Adam as a speaker at any presentation focusing on the key interdependencies of energy, health and stress management in raising the effectiveness and performance of staff and management." "I thoroughly endorse Adam as a speaker. He was the epitome of professionalism. His presentation was exceptional. He delivered fresh, useful information in a highly engaging, humourous way, and in the exact time period we asked for. Our audience LOVED him!" "Dr Adam’s energy and enthusiasm is infectious! He gave our team a real boost and his session was the highlight of our Strategy Day. Importantly, we came away with simple tools which make significant improvements to everyday life at work and home." "Beginning with a very skeptical staff comprised of teachers and administrative staff, Dr Fraser’s down-to-earth , comptemplative and motivating presentation won the staff over completely. They have now asked me to continue working with Dr. Fraser, so they can continue improving their productivity and keep our unique workplace culture." "It's obvious from your performance that you were well prepared, practiced and familiar with both your topic and with speaking in public to groups. As our guys were ¾ of the way through lunch when you commenced your talk, it was a credit to you to be able to capture their attention and keep their interest throughout! It is without hesitation that we would recommend you to other organisations looking for someone to inform, excite, rev up their teams, or represent them in front of clients and customers." "Adam is able to present information and concepts in a practical way that encourages thought, discussion and action. Adam also brings a highly positive energy into the room that stimulates people to think and participate. The time we spent with Adam was invaluable for our Management Team to further their journey as the leadership of the business." "Following Adam’s presentation we had overwhelming feedback. The only problem was that we got the time allocation wrong, we didn’t have you on for long enough everyone wanted more! Looking forward to a longer presentation at our next event." “Adam was a winner with the delegates, who responded to his factual, practical and humorous presentation ‘Flow: The key to high performance’ with comments such as: ‘full of applicable tips and suggestions’" “I was impressed with the communication maintained by Adam prior to the conference. When Adam arrived at our venue, he allowed adequate time to talk with us to familiarize himself with the needs/specifics of his audience. He also made personal contact with participants as they came into the theatre, immediately establishing a relationship with them.” At our national conference Dr Adam Fraser’s presentation was one of the highlights. Some of the comments were “The best presentation of the conference so far”, “Very useful and excellent use of examples”. 96% of all attendees rated it as excellent!" I would have loved to have Adam for the Whole Day....BRILLIANT! I just experienced your amazing presentation at the Terry White conference and I need to tell you that you have changed my life. "How do you show up?" This question spoke so strongly to me. It's made me realise that what I've become doesn't reflect who I really am, and all I need to do to change is to take a moment to reflect on myself, my actions and my emotions. On behalf of my family, my colleagues, but most importantly from myself...thank you for who I'm going to be from now on. |
