Punched Up Panel Palooza

A High-Energy Answer to the Panel Discussion

Yes, panel discussions work. Yes they can be well-received.

But let’s face it; they aren’t always high-energy laugh-fests. The info is good; the energy can be lacking. And when the energy lags, so does the learning and the retention.

Solution: Brad Montgomery’s Punched-Up Panel Palooza

It’s a high-energy, creative and entertaining way to share best practices from your top achievers (or leadership) with the rest of your team. Brad facilitates and hosts a panel discussion of your top achievers.

Teaching + Learning + Fun = A Successful Meeting

(Translation: People learn best when they are laughing.)

Networking Speaker:

Caffeinated Networking On Steroids

We’ve found:
1. Your attendees come to your meetings in large part for the networking.
2. Many hate networking.
3. They don’t know how to network, so it makes them uncomfortable. Really uncomfortable. (Let’s admit it; it stresses some of them out.)

Their return on investment for your meeting hinges partly on their ability to network. Yet they’ve never been taught the skills.

Lucky you, we have the answer: Brad Montgomery’s Caffeinated Networking On Steroids! It’s like one of those tiny energy drinks in that it will give your organization the quick shot of energy to get the networking started. (Only it isn’t bad for you and doesn’t come in a can.)

Brad loves working with sponsors.   And Sponsors LOVE Working with Brad.

What are the details?

Having trouble meeting Brad Montgomery’s speaking fee?  No sweat…. bring in a sponsor.  They’ll help with the fee, and they’ll beg to do it again next year.  Because Brad has a Black Belt at making sure your sponsors get a huge bang for your buck.

Best of all…. your audience will love you..

The secret is twofold.

First, Brad gets to know your sponsors.  REALLY gets to know your sponsors.  He’ll work with them offline to make sure (Continue Reading…)

Awards Banquets are Always Important.   They are Often Boring.  They Can Be Awesome.

1.   After dinner, Brad Montgomery presents a laugh-out-loud funny motivational speech.   Not really a speech…more of an event.   It will be motivational…and very VERY funny.   We would want to fine tune the message to meet your specific goals for the banquet, but generally speaking, we’d want to offer a message of appreciation as well as a reminder that they should take themselves less seriously…while still taking what they DO seriously. Because this event is a celebration, the entertainment component would be crucial.  My background is in comedy and magic… and we’d draw upon those skills to make sure that people are sitting on the edges of their seats.   But it seems like a waste for it to be JUST entertainment.   So we’d drop in a message that is relevant to them and what their are trying to do.  (Continue Reading…)
