Rob Schiffmann Speaking Topics

  • The Power to Pivot: Mistakes are Gifts!

    Life rarely goes as planned. Things go awry and as hard as you try to stay on the path you have laid out, you will invariably be diverted: the powerpoint on your presentation will go out; your deadline is tomorrow instead of a week from tomorrow; you only have five minutes with a stakeholder when you thought you had fifteen! These are the moments in which we all throw our hands up in frustration, we panic and/or we freeze! However, there IS another way!

    Award winning improviser / trainer / emcee, Rob Schiffmann can show you the path towards presence and acceptance in these moments and show you how you can turn these "mistakes" into gifts. This interactive keynote will have audience members on their feet and armed with the 'Power to Pivot'. Through the use of interactive exercises, professional and personal examples, the audience will walk away with the understanding that some of the world's greatest successes have come when constraint has given rise to ingenuity. Topics covered include: staying in the moment, listening actively and harnessing the power to accept and build upon the unexpected. You will listen, you will laugh and you will learn to truly live in the moment!
