Create an exponential leap in business results by leveraging the same performance mindsets used by the most successful athletes, artists, and leaders of all time. 

What separates the top 1% of advisors from everyone else? It’s not more advanced tools and products. It’s not more certifications. It’s not their pedigree or the country club they belong to. It’s how they think about every part of their business.

In this presentation, we’ll dive deep into the culture of performance. First, we present and dissect what modern neuro and behavioral science tells us about high performers. Next, we look at the three ways advisors choose to “play the game”—playing not to lose, playing to play, and playing to win—and why those mindsets persist. From there we move to assessment, helping attendees quantify performance in the five most critical areas of their business, and finally, we culminate in actionable takeaways every advisor can use to level up their results.
