Quantum Leap Intensive

An Advanced Personal Development Training in Las Vegas

This is an advanced four-day intensive training in personal mastery and self development.

In this training, we will focus on one single aspect of your life. This one element is often referred to as your 'constraint'. In other words, the weak part of your game.

For 4 days we'll concentrate on that one point, and take it to a new level or resourcefulness.

This is the method that all world class athletes use to put their game on a new level. In short, concentrating on the one weak point of your "game", be it in sales, management, relationships etc. will cause a sudden improvement and breakthrough in quality and effectiveness.

To sell masterfully is to run a system of things and do them in confluence. It's important to think of selling as a system because each part of the sales process effects all the others.

To appreciate the profound results that are achieved in this special training it's necessary to understand the theory of constraints.

The Theory of Constraints

Goldratt's theory of constraints is a highly effective method for improving any system. Here it is in brief:

Don't try to fix any system all at once, because the entire system is actually being limited by only one element. Like the weak link in a chain, that one element is determining the capability level of the whole system.

No matter how much you strengthen the other links in a chain, it's going to break at the weak link every time. You can't out perform the weak link.

Therefore: isolate, focus on, and strengthen the weak link in the system. Concentrate your attention and resources there. When it's been strengthened, the entire system is stronger and capable of more.

Once the weak link has been made stronger, it's time to identify the new weak link. There is always a weak link in every system that is determining the productivity level of the entire system.

This process is ongoing and constitutes a world class method for continuously improving any system - including and especially your personal selling system.

Your Chain of Gold

You may already be realizing how the Theory Of Constraints applies to you and your sales, relationships, management, leadership health etc, all of which are systems.

Your ongoing performance in any particular area of your life is a dynamic system; a set of skills, habits, beliefs and actions that could be described as a beautiful chain of gold.

So what's the weak link in your chain? What's the one aspect of your system that limits all the rest?

In this training we'll identify it. I'll help you clarify it precisely so you can start working on improving it in measurable ways. You'll leave this training with a personal plan of action steps for improving the weak link.

More importantly, you'll learn how to apply the theory of constraints to the one area that's important to you - the one thing holding you back from living your dreams at a whole new level.

The set of techniques you'll learn in this part of the seminar are based on Goldratt's original theory of constraints and on the work of William Dettmer. They'll show you how to the break the constraints to world class performance.

Four Superlative Skills

Also included in this training are 4 master processes I have used and taught for over a decade both in my personal trainings and for the executives of top performing corporations like Bluegreen, The Army Corps of Engineers and Paramount Home Entertainment.

1. Kaizen Improvement

This course includes a unique module called Personal Gemba Kaizen™.

Kaizen or incremental improvement, is one of the finest strategies of excellence I've ever come across.

You'll learn how to apply it to solve problems and make improvements in your personal life.

In addition to Personal Gemba Kaizen, I'll also be including the Getting Better Faster technique from my Mental Game Mastery course.

Together these two techniques make this section of the training a state of the art module in learning how to rapidly increase your level of improvement, problem solving and progress.

Personal Gemba Kaizen™

Gemba means 'the real place' or 'the place of action' and Kaizen is Japanese for 'ongoing improvement'. So Gemba Kaizen literally translates to " incremental and ongoing improvement at the place of action".

Kaizen is most famous for it's use in manufacturing companies and it's amazing ability to increasing productivity and output by raising standards, minimizing defects and eliminating waste. But Kaizen is actually the art of improvement itself.

Over the past five years, I have created a set of special interventions and techniques and added them to the original Kaizen model put forth by Masaaki Imai.

The result is an original model I call Personal Gemba Kaizen™. The process is highly effective for solving personal and behavioral related problems and improving incrementally in any area of your life, from character building to self esteem; from your golf game to your relationship with your children or your spouse.

2. Getting Better Faster

The Getting Better Faster technique has been a favorite among my corporate training and consulting clients and was created using Andrew Agassi as the model.

It will teach you how to take any skill you want to develop and increase the number of distinctions you can notice, the quality of those distinctions, how often you notice them and how quickly you implement them.

3. Fear Into Power

One of the most valuable aspects of personal empowerment and mastery is the ability to turn blocks into the very catalysts that accelerate your success.

This section will cover special techniques for identifying the things that are stopping you, then causing those very 'stops' to automatically trigger you into action.

The result of improving this one skill is that you become automatically empowered to do whatever it takes to accomplish your objectives. Your old blocks will literally trigger new resourceful responses.

When you remove what's stopping you, you become unstoppable.

Actual Skills and Techniques

This module of the training is not a 'ropes' course or metaphorical fire walk experience. This is the actual set of mental patterns and change techniques that turn a stuck state into an automatic catalyst for empowered action.

You'll be learning a systematic and reliable way to expand your comfort zone. It involves three specific skills:

Identify the specific patterns and causes (conscious or unconscious) that have been preventing your from attaining your most cherished goals and dreams, or that are keeping you from greater levels of accomplishment and fulfillment.

Identify and specify the exact new action and resource you want and make sure it's ecological.

Turn the old block into an automatic trigger.

4. Uptime Excitare™
Discover Limiting Unconscious Patterns

This is the single most popular and most requested training module I have ever taught in my 17 years as a trainer.

Excitare is Latin for "to awaken".

This process will allow you to do two things that are quite rare in personal development seminars, mentoring and coaching. They are:

Identify the exact subconscious patterns that prevent you from attaining your full potential.

Discover new, more resourceful patterns to use in their place.

When I do uptime for someone, the frequent response is 'Wow, I never realized I do that ." People are most often astonished and amazed to have had revealed to them something they never realized was a part of their behavior, but which has now become obvious.

I often suggest a number of unique resources that are structurally similar to a limitation but which are infinitely more resourceful.

This allows the new resources to be paced into your reality much more quickly and easily. These resources are offered as choices to consider using in place of the limiting pattern.
