Topics, Sessions And Talks
Benefit from the lessons of someone who has worked thousands of hours directly with, advised, coached and mentored some of the highest performing corporate executives, entrepreneurs and change-makers in their respective fields. Even the highest performing ceos with a clear long-term vision of the legacy they desire to leave behind: the impact ultimately made on their business, community and the people most important in life: get overwhelmed with commitments that distract and ultimately endanger the prospect of achieving those goals. From Wall Street to Hollywood to the board rooms of Fortune 100 firms, Damon employs techniques and processes that are not academic—they have been tested and validated in action at the highest levels of industry.
Why creating goals that are actionable and embracing the tradeoffs you are willing to make in service of those goals results in accomplishing that which matters most to you and your stakeholders. The purpose of a goal is not satisfaction: that is the result of your accomplishment. The purpose of a goal is to manage future regret.
Even the highest performing leaders with a clear long-term vision of their legacy get overwhelmed with commitments that distract and ultimately endanger the prospect of achieving those goals. Define your legacy, know your stakeholders and the specific impact you want to have on their lives and how to implement an action plan.
Identify actionable goals, develop a clear road map to achieve them, be empowered by the techniques that best suit your work and intellectual process, and be held accountable while progressing towards and accomplishing each of the steps. Personalised systems empower leaders to confidently focus resources on the right priorities resulting in healthy and measurable growth.
Damon D'Amore, a seasoned entrepreneur with experience in both traditional and technology sectors, shares invaluable lessons from his journey of founding multiple startups. He provides corporate innovation teams and cultural leaders with actionable systems to gain the agility and advantages of startups.
