Nobody’s a Mind-Reader: the power of clarity for business leaders and entrepreneurs
Sturdy literally wrote THE book on Clarity. “Nobody’s a Mind-Reader: the power of clarity for business leaders and entrepreneurs”.
We begin with setting clear and comprehensive expectations for your team that align to your clear and memorable business goals.
We’ll then get crystal clear on who you serve complete with how to create an avatar that everyone understands.
And finally we will unveil your business’s higher purpose, the reason it exists beyond making a profit.
These combine to make decision making easier for you and every member of your team, all while inspiring and connecting your people in a meaningful way, and making your customers say “Wow!”

Note to Meeting Planners:
My primary goals are to turn the audience into raving fans and make you look good.
I customize everything for you and your audience. I work directly with you, the organizer, to understand your audience, your desired theme, and your goals for the presentation. The titles and concepts above can be tailored, and customized to create the perfect program and experience for your audience.
These talks take about 60-90 minutes. I am happy presenting to a small leadership team or a room of 1,000+ people. It’s all up to what works best for you.
For more information, please contact me directly. I handle all of my own scheduling and arrangements, so there is no delay or go-between for you to deal with. My goal is to make this super easy for you and to make you look great to your audience and members.
I look forward to talking with you.
Why is “IMPLEMENT” in the middle of this page?
A quick note about knowing versus doing.
None of the items you will learn, from these presentations, from my blog, from coaching, from books, or from anywhere else, matter at all unless you implement them. It’s where the rubber meets the road, where the magic happens, where your imagination becomes reality.
That’s why all of my presentations come with a workbook and exercises to use during and after afterward. This way everyone has tools to take what they’ve learned and implement their learnings in their businesses.
