After graduating from
Bluffton University with a BA and from Bowling Green State
University with a Master’s degree, Judson Laipply burst onto the
speaking scene and has quickly become a breath of fresh air in a
sometimes-suffocating world. Combining an amazing ability to make
people laugh and think, his presentations are down to earth and
highly motivational, creative and appealing, humorous and thought
provoking, lively and enriching. Drawing from his vast array of
experiences that include: working on a cruise ship, working at a
camp in Colorado, being a certified Aerobics instructor, teaching
college courses, being a published poet, part- time auctioneer, and
weekly columnist; he can relate to almost any audience. Whether a
specific program or a program designed to meet your specific needs,
you can be sure you will be satisfied.
Here are a few words from
Judson:
“I always tell people
how much I love what I do for two simple reasons. One, because I get
to meet and work with great people all over the country and am
always amazed with the people I meet. And two, for the concept that
I might just help to make someone else's life a little bit better.
For me there is no greater reward.”
Judson offers a
variety of programs including his most popular program, titled,
"Inspirational Comedy." Combining his thoughts about life and change
with humor, his presentation will have your audience inspired and
laughing at the same time. His finale "The Evolution of Dance" is
requested by his audiences everywhere he goes.
MOST REQUESTED
TOPICS:
Life is Change
William James is the father of modern psychology and two of his
quotes are fundamental influences on Judson Laipply's program. Those
quotes are: "The greatest discovery of man is that one can alter
their life by altering their attitude," and, "We do not laugh
because we are happy. We are happy because we laugh." Imagine being
able to create the life you want to live and enjoying it along the
way. Judson will help you discover your power of choice and how that
influences the life you live. He will show you how to fuse that
power with the realization that life is change to help implement a
formula for happiness in everyday life. Through laughter, story
telling, personal examples, and crowd participation Judson will help
all learn to create changes in their own lives and organizations.
The Paradoxes of Life
Sometime we find that we have to do the opposite in order to achieve
what we strive for. We must fail in order to succeed. We must
surrender in order to achieve victory. We must forget in order to
remember. We must ignore in order to listen. This keynote will
explore the paradoxes of life and how to help achieve more. In order
to get ahead we must get behind. The more we learn the less we know.
All of these seem like contradicting statements but in fact they are
powerful reminders about how to move forward in the world.
TRAINING SESSIONS / IN-SERVICES:
Keep Everyone's Drink Half Full
(sales workshop or keynote) The hardest thing about sales
is the understanding that every customer has different needs. Those
needs must be met or you end up with an unhappy customer.
Referencing advice from training as a server Judson explores the
importance of determining what your customer needs. Not the customer
as a whole but each individual. You have to determine what their
“drink” of choice is and then do all that you can to make sure that
is full thus keeping your customers happy.
The PEARfect Leader/Employee/Boss
The PEARfect concept revolves around these four areas Preparation,
Execution, Adaptation, and Resolve. The four areas are important
components to any winning individual or team. They can stand alone
as vital but together they form the PEARfect Leader, Employee, or
Boss. This session is highly interactive and self-reflective
requiring honest insight into each person level of achievement in
these four areas.
A Wink or A Blink
Perception vs. Intention
Communication is always deemed to be a viable leadership trait. Good
leadership skills many people will list as there top leadership
quality they look for. Yet for all the recognition of communication
rarely do people really look at it from all aspects. This workshop
helps to give participants a better understanding of the various
aspects that go into communication. It talks about how important
both the intention of the sender and the perception of the receiver
play into the message and its effectiveness.
Why I Am Better Than You
A look at status
Status. What does it mean? How do you achieve it? How do you keep
it? Your own value system will determine what you think of as higher
status. This workshop will help you see what you value and how those
values play out in your everyday life. How they influence your
friends and activities. Is anyone really better than anyone else? If
so what makes one person better than the other? All this and more…
Selling Sand in the Desert
How to Market and Sell Anything
With the world moving as fast as it does marketing has become the
engine that drives business. Selling is an extremely important topic
for anything. Whether you are selling a product, a program, a
person, or even yourself there are things that can give you the
edge. Discussion of branding, tag lining, and triggers will give you
a better understanding of marketing and help you to gain an
advantage in what you have to sell.
The Intelligence in Emotion
Emotional Intelligence is considered by many to be more of a
determining factor in forecasting one¹s success in life than
traditional IQ. This session will give you a broad understanding of
EQ as well and information on the many subcomponents. We will
explore the relationship of emotional intelligence and success and
discuss ways to increase your own levels of EQ. Find out what will
help you achieve what you desire.
The 5 L's for Living
This program can be used in either workshop setting or as a theme
for an entire day, weekend or week long camp. Laugh, Listen, Learn,
Live, and Love. They are five simple words that have many
definitions and many uses. Alone each of them covers an important
aspect of life but together they can be a powerful mantra for
living. Exploring the internal and external facet of these words in
relations to others and self. Listen to yourself, Laugh with
yourself, Learn from yourself, Live for yourself, and Love yourself
and the internal explorations of personal power. Once you have a
grasp on these areas you can move onto the external areas. Listen to
others, Laugh with others, Learn from others, Live for others, and
Love all others. These areas lend themselves to multiple ideas
concerning leadership and success. Communication, self-exploration,
laughter, service leadership, diversity, understanding, motivation,
and self-esteem are just a few of the areas that these five L's
touch upon.
Be An "It" Person
Ever have that person in your life that just seems to have it all
working? Life just seems to give them everything they want and even
when bad things do happen they seem to be able to handle it all in
stride. Everyone likes to be around them and people seem to
gravitate to them. Are they born with it or is it something you can
learn? This session will teach you some basic things that you can do
to raise your status in the eyes of people around you. It will give
you some small things you can do to make yourself perceived in a
higher light. It will help you become an "it" person.
