Character Determines Success

Colin Pearce has been waiting 36 years to give this keynote presentation. It’s been boiling away inside him but two things stopped him giving it.

> He didn’t know how to say it in a way that wouldn’t get him tarred and feathered and run out of town on a pole.
> No-one wanted to listen.

Now the two problems have been solved at the right time.

THINGS HAVE CHANGED FAST
From the Prime Minister to football code executives and talk back radio hosts, people of all walks of life are bewailing the fact that society has lost its grip on values, ethics and character. They are all saying, ‘Why doesn’t someone do something?’

PEOPLE ARE FED UP
Ask them what they want to hear at the next conference and they’ll shout,
‘ No more sales gimmicks’
‘ No more customer loyalty programs’
‘ No more time management’
‘ No more paradigm shifts’
‘ Shove your key performance indicators’
‘ Stop trying to manipulate us.’
‘ Do something for us. Care about us, our families, our relationships, our hopes, dreams and aspirations.’
‘ Find us someone to talk about real things, about life itself and its basic values. How to get our kids to listen, our teenagers to stay safe and our marriages to be happy. We need to be reminded that real morality and standards of behaviour still exist.’

SO WHEEL IN COLIN PEARCE’S ‘CHARACTER DETERMINES SUCCESS’
Colin’s keynote presentation is punchy, bold and a little scary so he peppers it with his off-the-wall sassy humour to soften the blows.
It serves as a great stand-alone program or as the introduction to the two year roll-out program, Character Works.

Colin shows that organisations currently using character based training report
• significant decreases in employee turnover
• lower worker’s compensation costs
• radical reduction in grievances, negligence, waste, accidents and damage claims
• healthier profits, gained easier
He explains how their employees are demonstrating
• new-found initiative
• greater productivity
• higher degrees of loyalty, enthusiasm and respect
• workplace excellence reflected in improved physical, moral and mental health.

Colin explains that a culture of character is a simple thing.
‘ After more than 36 years in education and training I am 100% convinced that only day-to-day doses of character training over a sustained period will produce permanent change,’ he says.

'Australians and New Zealanders respond instantly when their character is encouraged and appreciated because it is so natural; so close to home, so fundamental. They tell us they are starving for it.'

DECIDE WHAT KIND OF CULTURE AND PEOPLE YOU WANT
Do you want an organisation noted for these qualities clearly demonstrated by your people?

Benevolence, Carefulness, Commitment, Compassion, Contentment, Courage, Creativity, Determination, Forgiveness, Generosity, Hospitality, Humility, Influence, Joyfulness, Justice, Loyalty, Patience, Passion, Respect, Self-Control, Virtue, Vision, Wisdom

Dumb question. Of course you do.

Andrew Buckmaster, Ray White said
Met and heard you at Business leaders launch on Tuesday.
What you had to say was timeless and timely.
Your clear presentation of truth was most refreshing and a lot more than the smoke and mirrors that many speakers present.
Those I went with were also impressed and we had helpful dialogue that afternoon.

Lee Avery, Principal, Sunrise Christian School, Marion Campus said,
You turned off my treadmill. The time I spent with you doing 'The Fox-Proof Chook House' caught me totally off guard.
I rocked up as a seasoned campaigner of "fix-you-up" seminars and was prepared to be cautiously involved; thinking that I might be able to drop in a few gems for the benefit of my fellow attendees. Instead I found myself totally absorbed-realising this was no game. This was life as I wanted it to be.

Phil Lampril, General Manager of The Home Ownership Company said,
Thanks again for your time today.
It is a brave topic but a much need subject which you covered. I enjoyed your thoughts and their application.
