Based on his new book, Jeff Hayzlett asks the questions that most business managers are afraid to ask. And as Jeff points out, if you aren't willing to look at what's working and what isn't - and then take the necessary steps to fix them - well, you and your colleagues and employees are in for a tough ride. Known for his outspoken appearances on numerous TV reality shows, Hayzlett has built his career on having the ability to get his people to look up and pay attention to the problems at hand. Through entertaining and timely anecdotes, Hayzlett will show your company how to thoughtfully yet aggressively evaluate, deconstruct, and then reconstruct your business.

In Running the Gauntlet, Jeffrey Hayzlett encourages business leaders to take the next step, to look forward and think critically about the actions they must take to prepare their companies for change. Building on the principles and concepts in his first book, Hayzlett takes audiences on a step-­by-­step journey to:

• Develop a “takeover mentality” for your business
• Summon the vision and courage necessary for driving change
• Sharpen the mental and emotional toughness to make strategic, lasting change
•  Execute the right changes and deal with any disruptions they might cause
• Sustain and manage your company’s new-­found momentum.

Marketing has never been more complicated and impactful as it is today, leaving many marketers contemplating the best moves for their brands. As a former Fortune 100 CMO, Hayzlett speaks to audiences on how to utilize the changes in marketing to reach new audiences, navigate through barriers, and increase revenues.

Whether it’s selling to the c-suite or selling to your neighbor down the street, everyone has a different buying personality. Does your audience know how to recognize different buying personalities and how to adapt their pitch? Hayzlett teaches sales teams how to create a winning elevator pitch, and how to pick out the different personalities and close the deal every time.

In Hayzlett’s opinion, the job of leaders is to motivate the company by getting everyone away from the center of the table to the edge of the table. A leaders job is to cause tension to drive results. Hayzlett takes audiences through a radical transformation, teaching the values of honest transparency, motivation, and leadership skills he’s honed over 26 years in business. A company is only as fast as it’s slowest common denominator, and Hayzlett seeks to find these issue and problems slow businesses down like a heat seeking missile.

As a former Fortune 100 c-suite executive, Hayzlett has the experience and understands the complexity of top-down management. From both his work as a c-suite executive and his television show C-Suite with Jeffrey Hayzlett, where Hayzlett enters the boardrooms of the top companies changing the business landscape today, Hayzlett shares his personal knowledge and the stories from executives featured on the show to audience around the world.
