Velton W. Showell III speaking on stage
Speaking

When Velton speaks,
rooms move.

Your audience does not need another speaker. They need a turning point. Sixty to ninety minutes, built around your theme, delivered by someone who lived the work before he taught it.

Signature Keynotes

Three talks, and what your audience walks away with

01

The Secrets They Don't Teach in School

The things nobody hands you with the promotion, drawn from three decades of learning them the hard way.

  • How to lead people who were peers yesterday
  • Managing up, down, and across without losing yourself
  • The difference between being confident and being arrogant
  • Why the leave behinds matter more than the take aways
02

The Intersection of Passion and Vocation

What becomes possible when people stop separating who they are from what they do.

  • Finding the why behind the work, for yourself and your team
  • Building an environment of empowerment rather than a task list
  • Understanding the meaning of each person's why
  • Making the work fun, and watching productivity follow
03

No Hocus Pocus, It's All About Focus

There is no magic trick in high performance, only the discipline that shows up after the motivation is gone.

  • Intuition as the secret sauce, and how to sharpen it
  • Seeing it through when the early enthusiasm fades
  • Leading by example: never let anyone outwork you
  • Consistency as a discipline, not a personality trait
