Talks that Shift

Turn One Motivational Talk Into 30 Days of Better Work

If you’re a CEO, VP, HR leader, Sales leader, or Talent Development lead planning your next company event, you’re in the right place.

You’re not just booking a speaker. You’re booking a shift—clarity, courage, and action people can bring back to work.

Choose from a library of motivational talks (leadership, teamwork, customer experience, mindset), and we’ll match the right one to your audience and business goal.

’10–15 minutes. Share your event date, audience, and the shift you want.

Most talks don’t fail on stage. They fail on Monday.

The room is alive.

People laugh. They clap. They nod like, “Yes. That’s exactly what we need.”

Someone even posts a quote on LinkedIn before lunch.

Then the event ends.

And Monday arrives—quiet, heavy, and full of the same work.

Same overload. Same meetings that go nowhere. Same “follow up na lang.” Same people waiting for someone else to move first.

It’s not that your team didn’t get the message.

They did.

They went back to a system that rewards busy, not better.

So the talk becomes a good memory… not a new standard.

That’s the gap I design for.

Because the real job of a motivational talk isn’t to lift the room for one hour.

It’s to change what your people do when nobody is watching.

What a “shift” looks like (in real work)

A shift is not a grand declaration.

It’s small. Specific. A little uncomfortable.

It shows up in the exact moments your people usually avoid.

Like when a manager finally says, “Let’s be clear—what’s the decision?”
Instead of letting the meeting drift.

Like when a sales leader stops rescuing the team…
and starts asking, “What will you do before EOD?”

Like when HR hears another complaint and doesn’t just soothe it—
they fix the root cause with the leader involved.

A shift is when the room stops saying, “Gets ko.”
…and starts saying, “Sige. Ito na. Ganito na gagawin natin.”

That’s what my talks are designed to create:

  • one behavior to start
  • one behavior to stop
  • one standard to protect
  • one simple tool people can use the next day

Because motivation fades.

But a practiced move? That sticks.

What makes this different

Most motivational talks are built for the room.

Big energy. Big message. Big applause.

Nothing wrong with that.

But if you’re a CEO or VP, you already know the pain:

Your people don’t need another idea. They need a better default.

So I don’t design talks to be impressive.

I design talks to be usable.

Here’s the difference.

Typical motivational talk

  • Feels inspiring in the moment
  • Gives lessons people agree with
  • Leaves you hoping it sticks

Talks that Shift

  • Anchors on one business-relevant shift
  • Uses real work moments (not generic stories)
  • Gives people a simple tool they can reuse
  • Builds a 30-day rhythm so the message doesn’t die after the event

In other words:

You’re not just paying for a speech.

You’re installing a small upgrade in how your people think, talk, and act at work.

’10–15 minutes. Share your event date, audience, and the shift you want.

What you get

When you book Talks that Shift, you’re not just getting a speaker.

You’re getting a simple follow-through package your people can actually use after the event.

1) A talk built around one clear shift
Not a buffet of ideas.
One message your team can repeat, remember, and apply.

2) A practical tool per participant
A script, checklist, or template they can pull out in real work moments—
meetings, handoffs, sales calls, customer issues, tough conversations.

3) A simple 30-day application plan (Week 1–4)
So the talk doesn’t fade after Day 1.
Your people know what to try next—and when.

4) A leader huddle guide
For managers and supervisors—the layer that makes things stick.
Short prompts they can use in team huddles to keep the shift alive.

Optional add-ons (if you want deeper change):

  • Talk + workshop (practice it in the room)
  • Manager session (equip the middle layer)
  • Weekly nudges for 30 days (keep momentum going)

Because the goal isn’t “Ang galing ng speaker.”

The goal is: better work shows up after the talk.

How we match the right talk

You don’t need to pick the “perfect topic” from a menu.

Most leaders guess… then hope it lands.

We don’t do that.

We start with a short Zoom call so we can match the talk to your real need—
not just your event theme.

On the call, we’ll get clear on:

  • Who’s in the room (roles, level, culture, energy)
  • What’s happening in the business right now (targets, pressure, change, morale)
  • The 3–5 work moments you want to improve (where things break down)
  • The one shift that will create the biggest ripple in the next 30 days

Then I’ll recommend the best-fit talk (or blend) and the right follow-through tools.

10–15 minutes. Fast, practical, no fluff.

Pick the shift your team needs most

Most leaders don’t need “more topics.”

They need the right shift—one that solves a real pain at work.

Start here.

Be the Owner

When you’re tired of chasing updates and carrying work that isn’t yours. We shift people from “wait and see” to ownership and follow-through.

Play to Win

When your team is busy all week but the needle barely moves. We shift focus from noise to the few moves that actually drive results.

Formats (choose what fits your event)

You can book a single talk—or build a bigger shift experience around it.

1) Keynote / Motivational Talk (30–60 minutes)

Best when you want to open the event strong, align the room, and give people one clear message to carry forward.

2) Talk + Workshop (Half-day / Full-day)

Best when you want people to practice the shift—apply tools, run scenarios, and leave with a working plan.

3) Series / Program (Multi-session)

Best when the goal is sustained change—leadership pipelines, sales performance, culture building, and team habits that stick.

“From Applause to Action”

One client booked me after a big quarter.

The event theme was “motivation.” But what the leaders were really worried about was follow-through.

During our Zoom call, we didn’t start with topics. We started with the Monday pain: deadlines slipping, handoffs breaking, “waiting for approval,” and leaders quietly rescuing work.

So we anchored the talk on one shift: Be the Owner.

After the event, the change wasn’t dramatic.

It was visible.

People started closing loops without being chased. Updates became clearer. Managers stopped doing the “follow up” dance.

Not perfect—just better.

And in a company, “better by default” is the real win.

“The Courage to Say the Thing”

Another team didn’t have a skill problem.

They had a hesitation problem.

Everyone was polite. Everyone was “okay.” But decisions dragged because people wouldn’t say what needed to be said.

We built the talk around Be All-in, Always—everyday courage in real work moments: speaking up early, naming risks, asking for clarity, calling out gaps.

After the talk, one leader told me something simple:

“Mas matapang na kami magsalita ngayon. Hindi na namin pinapatagal.”

That’s the shift.

Not louder people— just braver, earlier, clearer action.
