Speaking Topics

Consulting
Having spent the last 29 years starting, expanding, and selling businesses, from a small one man business, to an organisation comprising of 32 companies in 8 countries, to a business doing in excess of $1b turn over per annum, I have developed a unique ability and passion to help people create the most lucrative exit strategies from their businesses. What good is it if you build a business only to then have the business control you, rather that you use it as a vehicle to achieve your ultimate lifestyle of wealth and freedom in both time and money.

If you would like to exit out of a profitable business, put in a support system to ensure that your ongoing cashflow is not disrupted while you are not actively involved on a day to day basis, or are faced with financial difficulties and need to reduce your financial losses, then discussing your personal circumstances with Ronnie is a must.

Presentations
For corporate clients, The Business of Life offers both keynote speeches and lectures. Topics can be selected from The Business of Life's existing corporate development programs or customized to meet your business's specific needs.

Some of The Business of Life's most requested presentations include:

Putting the Soul Back into the Corporate Body
In an era of corporate bankruptcies and massive layoffs, businesses these days must prove now more than ever that they are right on track. Ronnie Kagan takes you through the process of finding purpose, balance and certainty in your corporation as he shows you how to:

• Discover your corporate values
• Clarify your corporate mission
• Inspire loyalty within your team
• Motivate greater productivity
• Expand your market share
• Maximize your profits
• Keep your employees happy and motivated.

Increasing Productivity, Motivation and Loyalty within Corporate Teams
Do you have a clear vision and direction for your company? Does it inspire you and your employees? If the people in your corporation can't link their job responsibilities and their own values to that vision, they won't demonstrate a great deal of motivation or loyalty towards you. Learn how to inspire your team and avoid employee burnout and boredom.

Staying Focused and Dissolving Distractions
When your employees are distracted, they're costing you money. Without an organised mind and a clear set of priorities, they spend time, energy and money on low impact actions. Ronnie Kagan will show you how to use the method of Distraction Resolution to get your employees back on track.

Discovering the Hidden Order in the Apparent Chaos
Your corporation will never be praised without being criticized, nor have a gain without a loss. This is the equalization process to which businesses, like individuals, are subject. By demonstrating how companies receive both "good" and "bad" equally to create a harmonizing balance, Ronnie Kagan will help guide you through The Great Discovery to a deeper understanding of how it impacts you.

Guiding Corporate Growth
Acquisitions, mergers, restructuring and corporate buy outs all have rules that need to be understood and applied. By understanding the fundamentals you can predict and guide the growth of your business.

Ronnie Kagan will explain how highly functioning and productive corporate teams actually follow principles unknowingly. He also demonstrates the power of non-local effects on corporate team building and neutralizing competitors. This understanding will give companies a competitive edge like no other. He will also help you grow your business both locally and internationally if that is your desire.

Business Modules
Corporations often require in-depth and expanded business modules to dissolve certain issues. Ronnie Kagan provides half day, full day and multiple day seminar programs on selected or customized corporate development topics.

Some of Ronnie's most requested business modules for executives and executive teams include:

Dissolving Distractions and Remaining Focused
Every day that employers and employees become distracted from their primary objective they cost their national or international corporations hundred of thousands, millions or even billions of dollars. If an employee doesn't have an organised mind and a clear set of priority actions he or she will spend an enormous amount of time, energy and thought on low priority distractions. There are times in almost everyone's life when things just seem to pile up and become overwhelmingly distracting. This is the time when they need a simple tool that can help them sort through it all and bring some sanity, order and organization back to their lives. The "Distraction Resolution - Business Development Module" is such a marvelous tool.

Prioritizing Actions and Delegating Responsibilities
When managers neglect to do their higher priority activities or delegate their lower priority activities to subordinates they set the stage for their teams to do the same. By focusing on those priorities they save their company time, energy and most importantly, money. There's an art to doing it and this is one of the most important arts to master, for without its mastery no company can grow beyond a mom and dad organization.

Self-Management and Accountability
When executives and executive teams become forgetful and unaccountable for their primary objectives they cost their corporations dearly. Having a daily checklist in front of you is like having a coach standing beside you as you're about to go into the most important game of your life. It is an absolute "must" and certainly confirms the old adage, "Even a short pencil is more reliable then the longest memory."

Productivity, Motivation & Loyalty
If you don't have a clear vision and direction for your corporation, one that inspires you, one that provides you with a feeling that filters through every level of your company, you'll waste money, energy and time trying to rescue employees and get them motivated. If the people in your corporation have not taken the time to link their individual job responsibilities and the purpose of the corporation to their values and goals, they can't possibly be demonstrating their maximum motivation or productivity. And they definitely won't be feeling their highest degree of loyalty towards you. If you and your employees fail to periodically elevate your productivity, motivation and loyalty then your business will, without a doubt, become vulnerable to the costly ravages of boredom and burnout.

Resolving Conflicts
Important employees within corporations can at times develop conflicts with each other and conflicts quite often have serious repercussions on efficiency and productivity. Though cooperation and conflict are parts of any worthwhile enterprise, conflict, when blown out of proportion, can cost companies fortunes. Conflict resolution must be timely and effective to save companies the expense of down time, loss of resources and even litigation. It's a skill no executive can afford to be without.
