FOCUSED KEYNOTE TOPICS

High Performance and Culture of Excellence

High Performance is a mindset, a process and a state of being that accelerates everyday performance and achievement. Individuals and teams that embrace High Performance begin a journey toward excellence and elevated execution that has the power to carry them beyond their expectations.

Teamwork

Blue Angel precision is built on a solid foundation of teamwork. Every team member, from the crews on the ground to the pilots in the air, is held to the exact same standards of excellence. Unified alignment collapses barriers, and creates a powerful culture of action.

Trust

How would your teams perform if there was complete inherent trust in each other and the organization? The Blue Angel’s air show is built on a foundation of trust. Picture this: two jets, collision course, 1000mph closure, and you’re goal is to miss the other jet by a wingspan. An extreme trust makes that maneuver possible, and when that relationship is transposed onto the world of business, the results are incredible.

Leadership

Character, authenticity, compassion, strength, trust: the Blues’ performance flows from powerful leadership.The Blue Angel approach to leadership is unique and inspires trust through confidence, with open and honest communication. Every team member is expected to be a leader to achieve expected results.

Innovation and Performance in Transformation

In the digital age, innovation and transformation surrounds us. Engaging with advances mid-stream requires a unique mindset. How do you fly the jet and innovate it at the same time? And once you’ve arrived, how do you sustain that change?

Elevated Beliefs and Raising Performance Expectations

People and teams operate at the level of their beliefs. When we raise the level of those beliefs, performance will follow. A simple self-reflection on limiting and liberating beliefs can create new alignment and precision in individuals and teams.
