You were everything we expected and more. You energized our delegates and set a tone for all conference activities to follow. I especially nodded my head when you spoke about concentrating on the things that are going well and not the small things that are not going well

Jones Loflin was great. Of all the motivational speakers we have had at our conferences in the past, he was by far the best. His message, focused on change, helped set the stage for the rest of our conference. I would highly recommend him.

I am so happy that I attended both of Jones' sessions. The tips proved timely. Defining and focusing had been my stumbling block. I have the opportunity to work on a large unexpected project that I had been begging for. By using my new found focus on It, I was able to move other stalled projects forward so that I could tackle the new one. Thank you so much!

Thanks for coming out to Tractor Supply to facilitate Juggling Elephants yesterday. Several participants engaged with me after the program was complete to share how much they enjoyed the presentation. One person even mentioned that you were the &ldquo;best presenter they had seen in their life&rdquo; in their long career of working! Even more impressive, several managers provided comments during their graduation speeches to the executive team on how Juggling Elephants has helped them realize the importance of having balance in their life. I look forward to working with you again!

I hope you have gotten some rest from your whirlwind visit with us. You were just fantastic, my friend! I love your energy level. Your running with your daughter must really be working because you never lost your breath in your presentation even after running up and down the steps in the auditorium! You created a lot of excitement at both presentations and I've heard many, many positive comments from my co-workers. I just wish we had your opening from the WHQ event where you talked about being a FedEx package - that was fabulous!

It’s Time To Thrive As A Hive

Focus/Productivity/Change

A keynote that helps teams cut through distractions, clarify priorities, and focus on the work that matters most. 

Most organizations think their biggest challenge is productivity. It isn't. It's focus. A honeybee never wakes up wondering what her job is. She doesn't chase distractions or drift into work that isn't hers to do. The hive succeeds not because every bee does everything — but because every bee does the right thing at the right time. That simple principle is the blueprint for stronger teams, clearer priorities, and better results.

This Keynote is Perfect For Audiences Who Are:

  • . Feeling overwhelmed or stretched too thin 

  • Navigating constant change or shifting priorities

  • Struggling with accountability or role clarity

 Audiences Will Discover How To: 

  • Clarify Roles and Priorities 

  • Stay Focused During Change 

  • Protect The Team From Distractions 

  • Recognize and eliminate the interruptions draining energy and productivity. 

  • Turn Individual Effort Into Collective Results 

  • Align personal accountability with the bigger mission so the whole team succeeds.

Ready for practical strategies to improve focus and results?  The difference between a thriving team and an exhausted one isn't effort. It's whether everyone what deserves their focus and what doesn't.

A More Natural Way To Lead

Leadership/Change

You want to take your leadership to the next level, but the question is “How?” You need a practical blueprint to change.

It’s time to get “growing” and harvest something better for your people and your organization.

  • Create an environment for ideal growth and understand why leaving some things "unpruned" seldom brings optimal results

  • Identify potential changes that can increase time spent on highest priorities

  • Improve communication and strengthen clarity about expectations and priorities

  • ​Identify three specific areas they need to address daily as a leader or manager

  • Discover what's limiting success and what's holding their team members back
