Johnny Elsasser Speaking Topics

  • The PRIME Process

    Value: Increase personal productivity for yourself and your employees to achieve higher levels of efficiency throughout the workforce and increase bottom-line revenue.

    In business and in personal life, value is shown through benefits we receive. Whether we have more productivity to increase revenue or have more efficiency personally to create more fulfilling lives, the bottom line is that everything comes down to how we utilize and prioritize our time. In today’s world with dopamine hits coming from a wide range of accessible activities, it has become common practice for people to become side tracked and inefficient. No longer can we rely on ourselves to inherently separate play and work. In these times, businesses are being impacted by the deterioration of focused employees and individuals are finding themselves mindlessly scrolling instead of doing things to help them feel fulfilled. And in all of this, both the company and the individual are suffering.

    As a former special operations leader, former tactical commander to the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, high performance coach, author, and podcast host, Johnny knows the importance of intentionally constructing a simple protocol within, so that we may succeed externally. The power of an intentional "process" that is hardwired into our everyday "processes" can create the most impactful change in anyone’s life. And, Johnny knows that everyone is capable of performing this. The “processes” that we choose to instill within our lives become focal points for productivity and fulfillment. When we empower ourselves with an effective way of performing at a high level consistent with our goals and desires, there is no level of success we cannot reach.

    In this insightful and engaging program, Johnny shares the “process” that will enable every person to structure a protocol that recalibrates, reinvigorates, and reenergizes the outcomes we deeply desire. Learn the "PRIME Process"• Presence, Responsibility, Intention, Measurable, Expiration• and how elite performers use them to reach higher levels of success in their career, their relationships, and in life. Get ready to PRIME your life for massive success!

    Takeaways: In this program, you’ll learn:

    • What it means to have a default process that allows you to recalibrate and refocus on what is important so that you do not fall victim to external time wasters.

    • The importance of living in the present moment in order to up-level your performance and maximize your abilities.

    • The 5 components components that will catapult you from inefficient to intentional and how that can shift each day.

    • How to implement habits around each of the 5 elements so that when derailment is experienced, you can remove yourself from it and increase productivity.

  • The Tactical Pause

    Value: Create adaptability so that no obstacle can consume you or your team. The ability to remain adaptable will create a more cohesive and collaborative environment which will enable you to optimize and evaluate the possibilities and thrive in any crisis situation.

    Success is never built around everything "going right". Success and dreams are reached through being able to adapt to the environment around and optimally perform when things aren’t going as planned. As a former special operations leader and tactical commander to the U.S. Ambassador to Iraq, Johnny has witnessed unbridled chaos in the face of planned missions. When those moments arise, it is up to the tools and resources the individual has within them, that will allow the situation to be maintained and controlled so that the desired outcome is always achievable. It is in the "Tactical Pause" that elite military units thrive because in the usage of this internal process, we are able perform at a high level and achieve success no matter what the situation turns into.

    Johnny knows that most people will never encounter the level of chaos special operations do when in combat overseas b but the reality is, our minds seek the sympathetic nervous state even though the stakes of life and death are not present. In these moments, everyone ceases to perform at an intentional level unless they understand how to shift their minds back tot he parasympathetic state. Through utilizing the "Tactical Pause" everyone can gain the ability to manage a crisis situation at work to unruly children at home.

    In this powerful program Johnny shares how everyone can leverage the "Tactical Pause" to re-collect themselves, address what is in front of them, and make the best decision possible with the information available. Learn the 3 phases of the "Tactical Pause"• Train, Trust, and Control• and how elite military units implement them in order to gain clarity in the chaos. It’s time we all become the leaders in our environments and not a product of the environment!

    Takeaways: In this program, you’ll learn:

    • How chaos does not equal dysregulation and how objectivity is key.

    • The power of adapting to your environment while harnessing your skill sets and capabilities.

    • What the Tactical Pause is and how to practice the tools necessary to harness it in any moment that shifts from a preset or desired outcome.

    • The 3 key components that make up the tactical pause and how every person can implement them in order to have clarity in the moment.

    • How creating adaptability in life allows you establish more balance and peace within.

  • Leadership, Self Awareness, Motivation & Decision Making: Leadership Reframed: Become a Leader People Want to Follow

    Leaders are asked to not only manage others, but manage themselves as well. This becomes a large task and most leadership trainings and teachings forget to address the internal first, before you move the external team. An uncalibrated leader is a dangerous leader. They are not safe for the team nor are they respected by the team. That dissension leads to inefficiency, ineffectiveness, and loss of morale.

    Whether you are leading a company or you are a manager within an organization, how you lead is a direct reflection of the output you receive from those you are working with. And what you bring to your work environment, internally, permeates out to those you influence. it's time we not only take control of our own happiness and internal calibration but also the direction and effectiveness of our teams and companies.

    This session establishes the PRIME Process which provides a systematic approach to identifying our internal triggers and struggles first, then clearing that in a way that it allows us to influence and impact their team in a positive manner.

    Utilizing Leadership Reframed we are not only able to take control of our internal state and establish a well calibrated emotional balance, but we are capable of influencing more effectively through our actions and awareness. If we are looking to truly balance our work and our lives, we need to understand the importance of our internal reflection and how that impacts all of it.
