PRESENTATION CONTENT by Paddy Upton

Paddy’s talks focus on the human-aspect of team and organizational performance, specifically on leadership, culture, teamwork and individual performance. Today’s competitive advantage mostly lies in ‘people’, and thus in an organisation’s ability to attract the best talent, retain them, and simultaneously to get the best out of the rest.

Paddy presents fascinating, practical and proven insights into contemporary, innovative and out-the-box ways to optimise your team and its individual performers, and thus your results.

His talks are bespoke, in that he will choose from a rich array of stories to meet the unique requirements of your event or organization, addressing the required balance between leadership, culture, teamwork and/or individual performance. Topics include but are not limited to:

• Harnessing the collective intelligence of your team
• Optimising team and individual learning (delivering intelligent performers)
• Playing to strengths
• Building individual and team confidence
• Successfully navigating mistakes and failure
• Unleashing young talent
• Unpacking individual intentions and motives, and how they impact performance
• Managing ego, yours and others
• Healthy and unhealthy alpha leadership, how to recognize and manage both
• Managing fear and pressure
• Building your team ‘bank account’
• Person or performance, character or results, be or do. What’s really important?

Client Feedback

Paddy’s speech at the Dell India Leadership Strategy meet was extremely insightful. The ease with which he was able to relate to corporate issues was simply commendable - a delightfully effective speaker whose style is simple, direct and engaging.

Recently, over 200 senior managers scored Paddy’s talk an impossibly high and near perfect 4.97 out of 5 for style and content! For me, it was the best session I’ve been to in 17 years!

Great presentation at the 2017 London Leadership Summit. It was humble, thought provoking and relevant to today’s business leaders.

A game-changing message.

Paddy is one of the best coaches in the world.
