Talk Proposal:
Be Exceptional: Find the Best in Yourself and Stand Out in Life and Business
Audience:
Corporations, associations, organizations, and events seeking inspiration and actionability to achieve peak performance and purpose.
Overview:
In a world of high standards, where great isn't good enough and attention is in high demand, be inspired to find the exceptional in yourself and be exceptional at what you do to
Stand Out and Make a Difference.
With customers today having high expectations and so much vying for their attention, how can we truly stand out and find joy in our work, even under the most demanding circumstances?
​
Be Exceptional
​
"Great" isn’t good enough anymore. People expect great quality, customer service, and experiences. Simply meeting the standard of "greatness" prevents us from standing out and diminishes the joy and pride we feel when we truly serve others.
​
This inspiring and actionable talk will guide attendees to rediscover their passion for service and learn how to exceed the ordinary and achieve the extraordinary. They will understand the importance of exceptional character, gain deep knowledge of their customers, and implement every action to a higher standard.
​
With 40 years as a family portrait photographer for the rich and famous, Jeffrey Shaw has mastered the art of luxury branding and buyer psychology. Luxury brands stand out not just because they are high-end, but because they operate at an exceptional level, inside and out. Business owners and sales associates will find more in themselves, create deep resonance with ideal customers, build unbreakable bonds, and establish unwavering brand loyalty.
​
Being exceptional means far more than being good at what you do. Be motivated to be the best version of yourself, find more joy in serving others, and stand out as an exceptional experience in any business.
