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 “best presenter they had seen in their life” 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!

Keynote by Jones Loflin:
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.
Keynote by Jones Loflin:
Leadership/Change
You want to take your leadership to the next level, but the question is “How?” You need a practical blueprint to change. Jones Loflin says that new approach is built on four simple words: Grow, Cultivate, Prune, and Harvest. In this innovative and engaging presentation built on the practices of a successful gardener, Jones equips leaders to identify where change is needed in their daily activities and take productive action. 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
Appreciate the value of celebrating more small wins with their team members
Keynote by Jones Loflin:
Leadership/Motivation
The end of the conference is the start of the real work... putting ideas into action. How do you do that when you already have too much to do? You have spent the past few days taking in all this new information, networking with your peers, and started thinking about how far behind you are at work. But have you thought about the right strategies to achieve better results when you return home? How will you take all you have gained at the conference and implement these ideas into your already overloaded schedule? Jones Loflin says the answer lies in 5 simple words: Who, What, Where, When, and Why.
In this thought-provoking and entertaining closing message, expect to gain:
A powerful process to initiate and sustain change within yourself and others
Tips on making new ideas a priority in your schedule
Fresh strategies to communicate with greater clarity and impact about what you want to see happen at work and in life
Tools to cut through the clutter of “something else” that dominates your day and limits your productivity and creativity
Maintaining the motivation to improve AFTER the conference is over
