what others are saying about leadership speaker Kirk Dando

“Kirk came and spoke to our diverse YPO Forum about developing high performing teams – including our forum as a team. He quickly boiled down this complex concept into actionable steps that we could all implement the next day. Every participant was incredibly impressed with what we were able to accomplish in a short period of time. Kirk’s interactive approach and real-world experience allowed us to surpass our lofty goals for his workshop.”
– George Drazic, YPO Austin Forum Chair

“Kirk provides such a unique opportunity for so many entrepreneurs and business professionals. It’s very rare to hear such authentic feedback about the journey of entrepreneurship and the challenges that CEOs face when they scale and grow successful companies. Kirk does a fantastic job of building an intimate setting where the audience can feel empowered to ask questions and guide the conversation so that they receive practical and applicable responses to their questions and concerns. So many entrepreneurs look up to successful founders of companies and dream of receiving feedback and mentorship from the experts, but so very few CEOs have the time or capacity to give counsel to other entrepreneurs. Kirk allows aspiring entrepreneurs to connect with experts, in a productive and comfortable environment.”
– Kelly Holt, Galvanize Evangelist

– Sean Costello, EO Education Chair

– Attendee, YPO Event

– CR Hall, YPO Chair

“Kirk offers a great been there, done that perspective based on real world experience not just consulting theory.”
– Gabe Krajicek, CEO & Partner, Bancvue

LEADERSHIP KEYNOTE AND WORKSHOP TOPICS

FOR YOU THE SIMPLE PHRASE BEHIND THE MOST SUCCESSFUL LEADERS
It turns out you can boil down the millions of dollars spent on leadership development down to two words: FOR YOU. Learn how you and your team can align around a simple (but not easy) rallying cry.

11,000 LEADERS LATER – WHAT YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE WORLD’S BEST LEADERS
As a leader, have you ever wondered what you’re missing? Have you ever thought, “I don’t know what I don’t know?” The same thoughts run through every leader’s mind at some point in their career. The good news is success – and failure – leave footprints. This talk will show you how you can utilize the experience of companies to your advantage. Kirk will share the advice he’s learned working with over 11,000 other leaders to take their business to the next level.

HOW TO HANDLE YOUR BUSINESS, BEFORE IT HANDLES YOU.
Do you have a handle on your business? Executives often lack the time or focus to consistently develop, validate and personally oversee implementation of key initiatives. As a result, we turn to new ideas and processes to “handle” our businesses. There’s no shortage of new ideas around how to make our business grow. We don’t need more information. We need more application. This talk will give you the tools other leaders have applied to get a handle on their business, once and for all.

JOURNEY TO THE TOP – THE WHAT, WHY AND HOW OF GROWTH
It’s a fact: you have a better chance of climbing Mt. Everest than staying in business for 10 years. Why? Many organizations don’t understand growth is a predictable journey. In difficult parts of the journey, it’s natural to focus on the issues directly in front of us instead of the predictable issues caused by growth.

Leaders must introduce planned structures, processes and strategies to unlock the next phase of growth. In this talk, you’ll learn where your company is in the journey, organizational structures used by fast growth companies and the processes you need to mature your business.
