Presentation Topics

The Trust Vortex

Despite technology that constantly connects us, people are getting more and more socially isolated.  If you want a better relationship with someone (whether it’s your family, coworkers, employees, or customers), you need to trust them more and you need them to trust you more. Unfortunately, people don’t come with a handy Trust-o-Meter that displays trust levels and outlines all the benefits of increased trust, which is why we need The Trust Vortex.

Key Takeaways
  • Four easy to apply principles that will build trust with virtually anyone
  • Shifting Momentum: Rebuilding damaged trust

  • The lasting impact of trust in your organization

“Dallin has a gift for making any topic engaging. His ability to connect with an audience in a transformational way is unrivaled.”

“I have heard a lot of speakers in my time; Dallin Cooper is a dynamic, credible and entertaining speaker. Simply a treat to listen to.”

Get On The Bull: Developing Attitudes & Behaviors for Successful Leadership

Bull riding is one of the most extreme sports in the world. But each day, leaders face challenges that are just as intimidating as a 1600-pound bovine. Based on Dallin’s book of the same title, Get On The Bull gives leaders of all types, whether they be parents, teachers, or CEOs, the skills they need to lift, inspire, and transform the lives of those they lead. These principles of ethical leadership do much more than just creating better leaders. Those they lead are happier, more productive, and more innovative because they know they have a leader who truly has their best interests at heart.

Key Takeaways
  • How ethical leadership transforms people and shapes cultures

  • Embracing mistakes: Building trust through accountability and transparency

  • Improving communication and morale through consideration

Ethics For Humans: Respect, Trust, Freedom, Peace

Ethics and compliance have a major branding issue. If you have to preface your trainings with the word “mandatory”, you aren’t in a great spot. But that’s exactly how most ethics trainings are introduced. They use fear (you’ll get fined!) or guilt (it’s what a good person should do), in an attempt to change behavior. Those tactics create a sense of obligation, but without any motivation. Ethics For Humans moves the conversation away from lists of unacceptable behavior and cautionary tales about lawsuits. Instead, it’s focused on the benefits of ethics: respect, trust, freedom, and peace. This motivates participants to change behavior not because they’re supposed to, but because they truly want to. It creates a lasting change and ignites a passionate advocacy for ethics in participants that continues long after the presentation ends. And when every employee is an advocate for ethics, compliance practically takes care of itself.

Key Takeaways
  • How culture, ethics, and compliance interact and why we should care in the first place

  • Using ethics to increase sales, productivity, employee retention and more!

  • The transformational power of moral development in our personal and professional lives

“I’ve already had employees just come up and tell me how great this was and how they’ll think of things differently.”

Brian Welper

General Manager, Tough Guys Landscaping & Lighting

“Dallin is a highly persuasive speaker in particular because of his ability to integrate and articulate relevant evidence into his presentations. What’s more, he always does an excellent job of telling a good story that connects with his audience. I highly recommend him.”

The Morality Matrix: Understanding Ethical Decision Making

We often learn about ethical decision making in a nice little prepackaged “ethical dilemmas”. But unfortunately, real life doesn’t label the difficult moral questions we face everyday as ethical dilemmas so we can apply all those handy decision making skills we learned in our ethics training. It doesn’t matter how good you are at resolving ethical dilemmas if you never even realize there’s a problem that needs solved. While still fun and entertaining, The Morality Matrix is a highly educational presentation that digs deep into providing participants with the hard and soft skills required to habitualize ethical behavior.

Key Takeaways
  • Understanding ethical fading and how it affects our decision making

  • Using the Morality Matrix, and innovative framework to make better decisions

  • Retraining your brain so your biases work for you, not against you
