A Culture of Extraordinary is not an abstract concept but must be encoded into the DNA of teams. Imagine your team learning how to think and act differently as they push themselves to the edge of what might be possible. They will understand what it means to go beyond their best. They will embrace the restless pursuit of marginal gains. Your team will understand why the Zone of Peak Performance is not a crowded place. Derek uses powerful, real-life sports analogies in a unique and compelling manner, that leaves audiences in awe. Even the US Government DoD embraced this topic.

Your teams will grasp how Trust and Preparation become the cornerstones of teams who push against boundaries. Your frontline employees will understand how to be Highly Aligned but Loosely Coupled, by being empowered to make quick decisions, with limited information. They will learn how to achieve trailblazing performance and understand why corporations sometimes struggle to emulate these valuable traits. This topic has energized both male and female audiences from California to the Czech Republic.

Having survived the hardest crash impact a driver had ever lived through, Derek shares his near-death experience that led to an unprecedented safety initiative in racing that continues today.
