BUT.....
You have NEVER experienced ANYTHING like EJ McKNight!

STANDING OVATIONS seminars are well researched and powerful experiences that impact lives and careers. . Each learning experience has been fully evaluated to bring you results that are nothing less than remarkable.

" He attacks an audience. It's electric... how he can make you laugh so hard, yet hit you right between the eyes with his insight. My job demands that I attend many seminars, and he's the best I've seen. I've heard him three times on three unrelated occasions, and he's been sensational each time."Mr. Sam McCord, V.P. Marketing, Fairchild Inc.

Each seminar/workshop/ keynote speech is highly energized, and is presented by E.J. McKnight, a master teacher, author, successful entrepreneur, and highly sought after motivational consultant in the U.S. He is also a professional magician, so he reinforces many of his most important themes with memorable and “magical” illustrations. He has earned the respect as one of the most educationally sound, yet entertaining trainers over the last ten years, and many in the industry have tried to emulate his techniques.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT E.J. BEFORE YOU EXPERIENCE HIM:

…. He will make you laugh.
…. He will make you cry.
…. He will hold your attention until his last word.

BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY HE WILL LEAVE YOU WITH A POWERFUL MESSAGE!
And make no mistake about it. You will not soon forget it.

E.J. McKnight operates on the theory that empowerment at the personal/ individual level is also the most important ingredient to improving performance at the organizational/ group level. As a result he integrates into each of his talks a personal empowerment component from his highly popular seminar MAKE IT HAPPEN. Strategies and techniques presented in this course can be used immediately and adapted to suit individual or organizational needs. This component alone can prove to be life changing, and participants may apply what they learn for improved relationships and performance in every aspect of life.

Every STANDING OVATIONS seminar additionally offers unlimited follow up via email or fax. This allows every participant full access to E.J. McKnight for the purpose of further explanation or help in specific and individualized target areas.

Whether corporate, athletic, educational, political, or personal life.... this seminar will show you a whole new perspective for success and achievement. After an initial and essential 2 hour component of self reflection and self awareness, this seminar will zoom in on:

1) Why we resist what's so easy

3) Why we all process things so differently, yet we can all use the same techniques to improve every aspect of our lives
4) Specific exercises and techniques that will enhance our focus

The seminar will "focus" on fine tuning that incredible power and product of YOU !!!!! It will be presented in an upbeat and fun way, with many stories to illustrate how these techniques have been put to use in the lives of REAL people.

Motivating the Motivator

A unique seminar specially designed for leaders, incentive planners, managers and supervisors that promises to give you an unparalleled experience.

This seminar focuses on the motivator and how he can make “his back door look as good as his front”.

Rotary Club - Tomas Morato

Most motivational seminars are directed at the rank and file, and provide detailed lists of obvious problems and even more obvious solutions. However, they omit the most important component: how to change personal perceptions and corporate dynamics in order to IMPLEMENT these possible solutions and oftentimes to prevent the problems from ever occurring in the first place!

Featured is a mini course in Make It Happen, a humorous yet intense component of EJ McKnight’s basic philosophies that have affected thousands. It also offers suggestions on effective non-cash incentives. Take advantage of this exceptional opportunity to have a mini AttiTuneup with EJ McKnight!

I. MOTIVATION FOR THE MOTIVATOR

1. What are you trying to accomplish?

A thorough look at your objectives in SPECIFIC not general terms.

2. Why are YOU the one to direct this motivation task?

Your effectiveness is only as good as your credibility.

3. Important questions and self-evaluation.

A primer on YOUR state of readiness as a motivator.

II. MOTIVATING THE UNMOTIVATED WORKER

1. Highly effective motivation techniques.

A study of what works and what doesn’t, based on data collected from seminar participants in various settings.

2. Why people do what they do? What personal values are at the core of your employees’ motivations.

This component is at the heart of every good motivation study and MUST be highly considered.

3. The fine line yet critical difference between “patting someone on the back” and “kicking them in the backside.”

Why different people need to be motivated in different ways and how you can tell the difference, yet still maintain fairness in application.

4. Three “magical” keys to every successful motivational effort.

Signature strategies of EJ McKnight that have solidified his motivational effectiveness as a coach, teacher, and employer

The Dynamics of Corporate Change

The Chinese word for change is an incorporation of two symbols: danger and opportunity. Although they may represent two opposites, it is exactly that point that makes change such a complex issue. An understanding of these opposites will enable both management and employee to recognize and even embrace change as a vehicle to professional AND personal fulfillment.

Most everyone is affected by corporate change, although it manifests itself in varying degrees and various ways in each individual. But since change may be the only constant in life, it becomes necessary to learn how to deal with it, because it can either strengthen or destroy any company or individual. And the best part is that YOU GET TO CHOOSE which direction you go!

This seminar will enlighten each participant as to the many facets of “change dynamics” in an inspirational and fun experience that will not be soon forgotten. It goes well beyond information but deals with the obvious and hidden emotional reactions that affect individuals and companies alike. You will laugh, cry, and be left with a powerful message that can have a most profound effect. As with each Standing Ovations seminar experience, there will be a short Make It Happen component that will focus on the individual, which is the building block for all the other seminar issues.

With All Asian Countertrade Management and Staff

1. Make it Happen component

2. Personal and Professional Conflicts with ChangeThis section will highlight all the potential problems that change creates and will discuss them in very non threatening, humorous manner. We will deal with stress, deteriorating creativity and production, worry, absence of risk taking, motivational decline, and “backroom whisperings in the workplace”

3. Creation of Trust and Respect
This segment is integral in reorganizing company priorities. Every decision will ultimately need to work toward these goals if any positive change is to happen. This engaging component will involve several “participation” and “improvisational” activities that enlighten each participant as to their role in the change process.

4. The 3 Levels of Change
A. Coping with change - the immediate goal
B. Handling change - the short term goal
C. Managing change - the long term goal

5. Importance of Inclusion
This part will identify the many ways that employees should participate in the change process. Should time allow, a short practicum for both management and employees will deal with areas of expertise and procedures for professional input

6. Getting Better TOGETHER
When you look at the companies who thrive, who innovate, who enjoy their work, you also see people who have made a commitment to something larger than their work…… they have made a commitment to each other! They embrace and/or work through changes TOGETHER, they are willing to put aside self serving pettiness for the greater good, and they understand that each individual is important to the total picture.
Unfortunately, most struggling or underachieving companies never quite grasp this concept. It is a Standing Ovations belief that any attempt at corporate improvement that does not address this issue is doomed from the beginning. This component will heighten awareness to the possibilities that cooperation and attitude can bring to the dynamics of change. Several interesting and revealing case studies and applicable techniques will make this segment a thought provoking conclusion to this workshop.

Although this seminar will be highly entertaining, make no mistake: every important element of change will be discussed and/or integrated into this seminar, and each participant will leave with the necessary tools for a positive “embrace” of the possibilities that change can bring.

Effective Communication in the Workplace

This seminar will cover such mainstream topics as "prioritized" listening skills, dealing with difficult people through emotional management, and understanding the flow chart of responsibility (and when to swim against the flow). It will consist of 5 basic components:

1. A short course about YOU! Why you process things as you do, and how to recognize and change the parts that are broken. This segment encompasses the Make It Happen component

2. The Power of Words: how to be compelling when you speak

3. You Cannot NOT Communicate. Everything we do sends messages

4. The Meaning of Your Communication Is the Response You Receive. The difference between intent and result. So often the message we intend is not the one that is received.

5. Receiving Is More Important Than Sending. We always import before we export.

6. A modified Public Speaking component can be added here if desired.

Smart Communications Phils. HR Empowerment Seminar

After completion of this seminar, participants should feel comfortable, confident, and clear in all your corporate interactions.

The seminar is energized and entertaining. It is presented by E.J. McKnight, a highly sought speaker and motivational consultant in the US. E.J. McKnight is also a professional magician, so he is able to reinforce many of his most important themes with "magical" illustrations. He has earned respect as one of the most educationally sound, yet entertaining trainers over the last ten years, and many in the industry have tried to emulate his techniques.

E.J. McKnight operates on the theory that empowerment at the personal/individual level is the most important ingredient to improving performance at the organizational/group level. Strategies and techniques presented in this course can be used immediately and adapted to suit individual or organizational needs. This seminar will prove to be life-changing and participants may apply what they will learn for improved relationships whether corporate, casual, formal, or family.

Motivating the Unmotivated Learner

Regardless of what teacher you ask, you will get the same reply when it comes to their most challenging dilemma: “How do I motivate someone who does not want to learn?” Both new and experienced teachers face this same challenge, and this seminar, presented by a teacher who has been overcoming this obstacle for 25 years with remarkable consistency and accolades from his peers, will be the answer to your prayers.

Why spend countless hours trying to find the solution to this age old educational problem when a one day seminar will give you all the answers?

With De La Salle University Professors

This seminar will focus on several distinct yet important segments.

1. A good long look NOT AT THE STUDENT BUT AT THE TEACHER! This Make It Happen component, a basic part of every E.J. McKnight STANDING OVATIONS workshop, will focus on YOU, what you “bring to the classroom,” what unspoken influences you can generate, why the experiences of YOUR life can be irresistible to every student, and why you must reach for all the possibilities in your own life if you expect to motivate others to do the same!

2. A Look At Educational History to find what DOES NOT work and why! In this segment we will also explore the myths of education and learning, discover why our attention often needs to be elsewhere than on traditional practices.

3. Why YOUR motivation NOT THEIRS is the most important consideration.

4. Tapping into WHAT HAS ALWAYS WORKED and why. And why has it been so often ignored by educators today.

5. Motivational techniques from the best educators and mentors I know. How to use the priceless wisdom of the past and update it for present consumption.

6. Relationships between motivation (internal and external), discipline, and well defined expectations from each party.

7. How to deal with the most stubborn challenges: the student who refuses to comply or try, the youngster who lacks confidence, the apathetic student, the discipline problem or disruptive influence, the child who faces many more urgent and extreme challenges than their education. An intense hour of discussion will enlighten each attendee with remarkably proven solutions to each one of these educational situations and will enable each participant to leave feeling empowered to make a difference in the lives of these students who so need our best efforts.

8. How to rekindle your creative instincts to create a world class educational environment regardless of finances or governmental support. Creativity and resourcefulness are imperative if we hope to reach many of our students. This segment will focus on the FUN part of education. We will have a time of sharing and “hands on” activities that will spark the creativity in all participating teachers. How can each teacher make their classroom fit their personality and STILL make it the best part of each student’s day!

“ I have put together this seminar so every teacher will not need to waste years finding the right formula. Although I am now teaching in the #1 High School in the United States (as selected by TIME magazine), I have also taught in the most difficult schools and under some of the worst situations imaginable, and I can attest that these strategies WILL WORK FOR YOU.”
- E.J. McKnight -

World Class Call Center Motivation: A Team Effort

The emergence of world wide call centers has created a great opportunity but also heightened the competition. The need to produce better and more consistent results is essential for survival. And it is motivation that again takes front stage as the single, most pressing issue.

This seminar will be enthusiastically received by every participant. They will laugh, share, and think reflectively, but most of all, they will thank you for allowing them to attend.

This one or two day seminar, determined only by the degree of improvement desired, will deal with the essential ingredients of call center motivation from the top administrators level to the actual telemarketers. Everybody has their part to play, and it is never a single group problem. Effective Call Center productivity will only happen when ALL employees and Management have clearly defined roles and interlocked responsibilities in developing a winning motivational level. Two days also allows for every employee and administrator to attend without leaving normal operations understaffed.

Call Center Conference and Expo 2007

Combatting Attrition, July 2007

An initial and necessary segment (Make It Happen) will include a personal inventory on the part of all attendees that will create a deeper understanding of self and the human condition. It will also create a unique relationship between all levels of the company that will serve as a springboard for remarkable success.

Other considerations will include: - Communication skills for all levels, including a complete understanding of company mission statement, expressing clear behavioral objectives, and what to do to improve company “chemistry.” This valuable component will also address dealing with difficult customers and handling the unexpected.
- Understanding the difference between Motivation and Morale
- Understanding the difference between External and Internal Motivation and when each is necessary
- Power of Inclusion, Working Environment, Consistency, and Recognition
- Incentives that WORK! There is a significant need to understand why traditional thoughts on incentives just waste money.
- Creating Vertical Teams and Motivational Teams

E.J. McKnight believes that the ONLY EFFECTIVE WAY to make a difference is when administrators take the seminar alongside call center/ customer service employees, allowing them to see that they are all in this TOGETHER!

In fact, call center phone staff will be released from the seminar BEFORE management for several important reasons that will only be revealed upon attendance. Management will then enter into an intensive motivational leadership component that also separates this seminar from all others. Should management feel as if the problem of motivation lies completely with the employees, then very little can ever be done to improve the productivity and working environment.

Conquering the Mental Side of Sports

The Difference Between Being Good and Becoming a Champion
How a Practical, Routined Mental Approach Is More Important Than Technical Skills
This seminar can be easily adapted to accommodate specific individual or team sports. This is an approach used by many professionals and presented by E.J. McKnight, President of Standing Ovations, a unique success training/ motivational seminar company, who worked through the “tough” times with professional golfer Fred Funk, Winner of the 2005 Players Championship.

This seminar will serve to create a necessary understanding
- that it is NOT the equipment, but the hand that holds it!!! (Golf specific)
- that consistency is created in the mind
- that everything begins with an emotional influence, and that we can condition our emotions to produce amazing results

EJ McKnight will focus on the basic mental techniques that will help you:
…play with increased focus
…drastically improve consistency
…play with “the eye of the tiger”
…practice with a purpose
…be more relaxed and have more fun.
…apply these techniques to ALL aspects of your life

This intense learning experience will introduce participants to Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP), a new performance enhancement strategy that is exciting, revolutionary, and remarkably effective.

This presentation is presented in an uplifting, entertaining, and enthusiastic way that will create in you the desire to share the contents with everyone you meet (except your opponents!)

EJ McKnight does not profess expertise in all sports. He does, though, present a compelling case for the importance of our mental approach, especially since he has very little feeling in his left hand and NO feeling in his right leg below the knee, and he yet still plays golf to an 8-9 handicap!!!!! Since he has no physical sensation, he must “imagine” these two things that most golfers take for granted… grip and weight shift! E.J. also played football at the college level despite a 5-9 150 pound frame. He battles arthritis and has endured spinal, heart, intestinal, and orthopedic surgery, yet continues to perform at a high level. Plus he still runs 3 miles daily!

Participants will learn how to harness their ability to envision success before it happens, to control their emotional states for peak performance, and to enjoy the game at a high level, especially since you will ALWAYS have a mental and emotional edge over your opponent!!! The techniques learned here have proved effective for any athlete at any level.

All attendees will receive lecture notes, practice guides, and the opportunity to purchase a mental preparation tape/CD at a discounted rate.

You don't have to believe this now! But if you come, and if you allow yourself to be receptive to the ideas presented in this seminar, you will be making one of the most significant investments of time in your life!!!
