Doug's Most-Requested Keynotes
Your Greatest Ally - or Biggest Liability?
How to Get Your Mind On Your Side
60 minutes, or 90 minutes
Right now, your people are losing out each and every day, to their own brains.
Our minds are built to lose momentum, focus, and drive – so how do you help your teams stop fighting themselves to get things done? And how doย they maintain those changes, day in and day out, to meet both their goals, and yours?
In this humorous and engaging keynote, Doug teaches and empowers allย levels of employees, by giving them the psychological tools to reduce the drag and resistance that’s currently holding them back. He then teaches how to make your brain into your greatest ally, like an AI program that’s running automatically towards your goals.
Why Motivation Never Lasts: Your Subconscious is Cutting You Short
60 minutes, or 90 minutes
Motivation is a terrible long-term fuel – and you can see how much it’s hurting the bottom line. Each quarter, you’re spending a painfully high amount trying to re-invigorate your teams – only to have that motivation run out again in a matter of days.
What if instead, you could have your employees motivate themselves?
In this powerful talk, Doug shares why it isn’t about pep talks or deadlines. He teaches your employees psychological tools from neuroscience, NLP, and even self-hypnosis to “trick” your brain into automatic motivation – each and every day – for production, job satisfaction, and of course, the bottom line.

One of my top performers told me later that [Dougโs] tools helped him quit pushing towards burnout, and set him up for his best month yet.
Weโve booked him for our other conventions already.โ
