Stop Telling Your Story. Become Part of Mine: How to get the attention of the people that matter most to you
Attention is the oxygen of endeavor, yet many ideas, brands, people and even Leaders struggle to be heard. Why? There is ‘too much and too many’ chasing a finite amount of time, and personal devices and social media are commanding more and more of it. In Stop Telling Your Story, Become Part of Mine, Tony Chapman will show how to get the attention of those who matter most to you. Learn the secrets of master storytellers, but with a twist that both engages and persuades the ‘head, heart and hands’ of your employees, peers, customers, and key influencers.
To support the keynote Tony Chapman has created two workshops to teach audiences how to use storytelling, with a twist, to shape how their audience thinks, feels, behaves and buys.
The Place to Be: How to Pivot From What You do to Why You Matter
Great location, positioning, and choice were the critical traffic and sales drivers for retailers, hospitality, and tourism. These advantages have all been surrendered to e-commerce which puts the entire world within arms’ reach of desire. Amazon, Uber Eats, and now even tourism is threatened by virtual reality, and other technology that keep people stationary. So how do you compete? Shift consideration from what you do to why you matter.
Humans are emotional and social creatures. We like to see and be seen, to treasure hunt, be surprised and delighted, to have our senses ignited, and live experiences that in turn feed our spirit and our social media. Machines lack heart and emotion. Retailers, tourism and hospitality, must pivot from a place to buy, eat or visit to The Place to Be. Tony Chapman spent 30 years developing successful strategies and tactics for leading retailers and brands. In his Keynote, packed with insights and ideas tailored to your brand and business, he will show you how to unlock your Be’s. Be personal. Be Insightful, Be remarkable. Be Unique. Be You.
A Brand New World: Make things Happen Versus Wonder What Happened
Tony outlines the critical forces of change that are rendering much of what we know about leading businesses and even societies obsolete. A growing divide has collapsed the middle ground. You are either making things happen or wondering what happened, there is no status quo.
Tony looks at how to make things happen by first identifying then giving the people that matter most to you – employees, customers, prospects, influencers, and investors ‘More and Less’. More of what matters to each of them – value-added personalization, with less friction and effort. He shows how do dot the three ‘I’s’. Insight, Imagination and Intention. In this Brand New World there is no middle ground. You must make things happen versus wonder what happened.

Workshop: Reciprocity How to give, share, create and collaborate to gain the trust and loyalty of others.
Reciprocity, the lifeblood of humanity, is being challenged by many of today's’ technologies. Humans are being conditioned to promote themselves in social media and are obsessed with finding their 15 megs of fame. Often we do this, with little regard for others. We clamor to push forward our stories, ideas, content and selfies with the sole purpose of finding others who can give us ‘likes’, while we offer little or nothing in return.
Tony begins the workshop by asking a simple sentence.
I work here and do my job because _________________.
After a spirited conversation on the meaning of work, Tony will spend the balance of the workshop looking at the difference between transactional work where people feel marginalized and transformative work where people feel they have a greater purpose.
Tony will then share his recipe for creating reciprocal relationships with employees, customers, influencers and investors.
1. Start with a Desired Outcome of how you want people to feel, think, and share
2. Identify a greater purpose for your company, idea or project than transactions
3. Design shared experiences where people pull together for a greater purpose
The Workshop will be customized to the audience and their industry sector.
