Edward (Ned) Hallowell Speaking Topics

  • Connecting in a Disconnected World

    We live in a world characterized by what Dr. Hallowell calls “the modern paradox”: miraculously connected electronically, we are growing disconnected interpersonally. This social isolation is as dangerous a risk factor for early death as cigarette-smoking, high blood pressure, and obesity. Touting the power of “the other Vitamin C, Vitamin Connect,” Dr. Hallowell offers a detailed prescription for a richly connected life that anyone can follow. This Vitamin C is free, infinite in supply, and feels good to take. Sadly, most people don’t take advantage of its amazing power.

  • Shine: How to Bring the Best Out of Yourself and the People You’re With

    In this talk Dr. Hallowell offers a 5-step plan for bringing out the best in people in any organization or other work setting. Rooted in his 30 years of experience in promoting peak performance, this simple, but highly researched and evidence-based plan can lead a person from mediocrity to achievement at the highest level.

  • Cowboys, Cowhands, and Ranchers

    The third in a series begun by talks # 1 and # 2, in this talk Dr. Hallowell offers his observation that most adults fall into one of three groups: cowboys, cowhands and ranchers. Cowboys are the risk-taking, shoot-first-aim-later, innovative, action-oriented creative types. Cowhands are the dedicated people who sweat the details, connect with others, and make the operation run. Finally, ranchers are the big-picture managers, the leaders who inspire people, give credit to others, and take the group forward. Knowing which one you are, and how to take advantage of your style, can make for big successes. Organizations need all three.

  • The American Edge: The Mind of the Entrepreneur

    Most entrepreneurs have the trait that is so misleadingly called ADHD. Dr. Hallowell renames it “The Entrepreneur’s Trait,” and shows how phenomenally beneficial it can be. A follow-up to talk # 1, this presentation shows how many different paths people with the entrepreneurs trait have followed, and what factors predict the greatest success.

  • ADHD: It Can Break You or Make You

    Dr. Hallowell, one of the world’s experts on ADHD, explains his strength-based approach to understanding this fascinating and widely misunderstood condition. He shows how properly managed ADHD can lead to spectacular success of a kind that cannot be planned or predicted. It is people who have ADHD who advance the world. In this talk, Dr. Hallowell takes the audience through a process by which this condition can be diagnosed and managed best.
