Business Speaker
For Corporate, Association and Government Events
Business Speaker - As a professional business speaker, John Di Frances brings a unique mix of experience and leadership to his audiences. His focus is on delivering the unique, timely and most of all, practical content that his audience needs. John focuses on the needs of each individual audience. It is for this reason that he never customizes" stock" or "canned" speeches. He firmly believes that each audience is truly unique and therefore, each audience deserves an equally unique presentation designed just for them. This requires much more time and commitment, both in gathering the necessary information about the issues of concern to the audience as well as in the actual speech preparation. However, the result is worth it. Audiences respond overwhelmingly to John's meticulous preparation. They quickly realize "that John is speaking directly to them." As a business speaker, John respects the time and commitment of his audiences and believes that they have a right to expect and receive content and a message designed exclusively to enable them to succeed.
His Style - In a word, engaging! From his opening line through the closing call to action, John engages his audiences both emotionally and intellectually. Through solid high impact business content, strong visual illustrations and heartfelt stories, he draws the audience out of passive listening into an active participative role. As a business speaker John speaks to audiences as individuals, not crowds. In doing so, participants feel a personal connection with him. They respond because he is "talking directly to them," where they are at today. His more than thirty years of global business experience enable John to relate to the needs, frustrations and challenges your people are facing. Bridging the gap between speaker and listener, he imparts vision, values and the knowledge of how to overcome obstacles and optimize opportunities both personally and in the marketplace.
His Experience - More than thirty years of solid international business experience as a manager, senior executive and global consultant provide John with both the knowledge to draw upon as well as the illustrations and stories with which to paint a visual picture of the critical principles that he is relating. "People need to be able to see, to visualize the solutions to problems, if they are to be able to make the necessary applications," states John. "Textbook answers have little value in the real world today. Our marketplaces are changing far too fast for old, stock answers. To guide our people to the 'cutting-edge' we must be out front, ahead of them leading, not behind them pushing. No one can lead others where they them self have not gone before." John has 'been there and done it' and therefore, has the requisite experience to show others the way. John is a business speaker who speaks from what he has done, not what he has read others have have done!
His Content - Motivation and inspiration are important audience factors, however without practical business content, the results are very short lived. John is a high content business speaker. "With the right mindset, tools and leadership, virtually any group can become highly inspired and motivated." Most people want to do their best and encouraging that commitment to excellence is inherent in every speech John delivers. Audiences respond to being empowered and empowering them to succeed is a fundamental premise of John's speaking and consulting practice. Whether your event is a conference, seminar or retreat, achieving a positive Return on Investment (ROI) for your event must be a primary driver for your organization. The business speaker you need to exceed your audience's expectations and achieve positive ROI is John Di Frances.
