  • The Passing Zone Impact Report June 2010

    "I have never worked with two more talented performers that so consistently deliver excellence and who so completely understand the corporate client. They learn each of my client’s intended message and goals; then they customize their act perfectly and deliver flawless and meaningful first rate entertainment every time." Joe Sireno


    Client: The Sireno Group
    Event: Senior leadership meeting for an international car rental company
    Location: Fairmont Hotel, Miami, Florida

    Objective: The Sireno Group’s customer has had a challenging year economically. They were addressing serious goals for changing their corporate climate and needed to end their leadership meeting on a high note. Joe Sireno brought The Passing Zone in to impart a feeling of optimism and energy. At the same time he asked Jon & Owen to take the message of the entire meeting and weave it into a memorable and meaningful presentation.

    Results: With their signature wit and humor, The Passing Zone immediately addressed the current economic situation which broke the ice. Their keynote, “The Passing Zone on I.C.E.”, (pun intended) addressed Innovation, Collaboration and Execution based on the information discussed on a telephone meeting held 2 weeks prior. The audience erupted with excitement at the end of the presentation followed by a buzz in the hallways afterward. At the airport, Jon and Owen were approached by numerous attendees, expressing their appreciation for the messages in the presentation.

    Bonus: Two of the top executives appeared in two separate pieces on stage. This gave them the opportunity to show their fun side and win the admiration of their leadership colleagues. 
     
    What can I say...Jon and Owen blew the roof off the place – AGAIN! These guys bring their 'A Game' to every engagement and they just never miss." Joe Sireno

  • SCOTT BURROWS: Willpower Trumps All

    Scott BurrowsScott Burrows recently spoke to a financial services company and the CEO was so impressed with what he heard that he booked him to speak to another one of his companies virtually on the spot. What struck such a chord for the CEO? In one word it was willpower. After the presentation he said to Scott: "you willed yourself out of that wheelchair. You willed your nerve endings to fire again. Willpower is the Grit." He went on to observe how very much his top producers needed to be reminded to will themselves up every day, and do all the little things they need do as they pursue new opportunities and grow their businesses.

    Scott's keynote presentation is inspirational, but it also shows audiences how the seemingly impossible, or at least the very difficult or trying things can be done. He receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from people who say, simply, thank you for showing me the way - if you were able to do that, than I can certainly do what I need to do.

  • Business Motivation Expert and Seriously Funny Guy STEVE RIZZO on Choosing Your Words Carefully

    The Attitude Adjuster STEVE RIZZO advises us to Speak Words That Empower:

    We need to be especially careful about the words we speak out loud when things aren't going the way we want. Yes, it's true that what you think is what you get, but what you say out loud in the midst of troubling times has even greater impact on how long you stay in those situations, and how deeply you are affected by the situation. 

    The words you speak amplify your feelings and trigger mental images. Your feelings lead to the actions that you take and the actions that you take lead to the outcome. In other words, my friend: if what you think is what you get, then what you say is what you ask for. If you're always thinking about how badly life is treating you, and telling whoever will stand still long enough to regret doing so about how you can't get a fair shake, you will always feel miserable. Ever hear anyone say, “Misery loves company”? Being miserable doesn't exactly attract good things to you. Get it? If you want to change your life for the better, start by consciously changing what you think...and what you say.
