Funny Motivational Speaker | Business Keynotes by Brad Montgomery

I know house plan
basically promised my dad I would
my name is Brad Montgomery we’re
connecting happiness at work to their
bottom lines it turns out happiness can
Brooke be broken down into very small
manageable steps they can be taught it
as techniques and skills and if we bring
that theory that decision that lifestyle
to work we’re better at what we do we
are more accurate we are more creative
we are more resilient we are a healthier
we innovate more we produce more and how
long have you been working for Harrison
eight out of ten years eight out of ten
years
look what it lets a lot of coffee breaks
when you add them all
come on I got two hours for a latte
let’s go I got a couple years to kill I
have eight out of ten years for a couple
years I’m thinking you did leave I’m
thinking they asked you to leave I’m
thinking dude he doesn’t work and he
doesn’t cook he’s our what were you
doing when you weren’t working
well what did they think you were doing
when you said you were working I
actually started a school for children
with processing oh great we were on the
funny side then you got all serious if
you are waiting for something external
to you to make your life better so that
you can be happy if you were waiting for
any of that before you can be happy you
are an idiot
picked happy it’s a choice it’s amazing
science tells us that 40% of our
happiness 40% 40% nothing help leave
that is 40% isn’t what we think and what
we do oh that was good if by the end of
the day you have labeled more things as
cool than you’ve labeled as lame it
makes you happier now I have more time
to think about this than you do so I put
together another game a lot of these
people are going like a show I’m gonna
give you some ideas and as a group as a
group you will shout out one of two
words you’re gonna either shout out the
word cool or you’re gonna shout out it’s
good I did this for you from presby nyan
someone shout it out for
was that too close it
some people ago
how about this floor laying the Hyatt at
Gainey ranch this place is cool like our
biggest problems are there’s too many
pillows there’s too many pillows
there’s too many pillows that is our
biggest problem here that and like you
know you finally coming out of the
elevator like I’m in a freakin honeycomb
where’s my room where is my room we need
to be joking about them their needs
their stresses their day that hotel that
meal because when they hear that they
know this event is just for them and the
fly-in is huge you’re a heavy repair
superintendent
we could interface with China right now
live but we can’t meet together as a
group if we focus on making other people
happy it is one of the most selfish
things we can do is the overall net
effect is it makes us happy one to
regional president that’s so cool
and are you a chef yourself no no okay
yes excellent choice on the job there
sir without making their group laugh and
without the comedy they don’t hear the
business message
this ain’t your grandpappy’s
motivational speech agreed then what do
you do for them I’m sure the commander
will la-dee-da whatever you’re the
commander I got two big G’s up here
well that’s gonna change the tone
somewhat it’s important that we get
people from your group up on stage
you’re gonna see people in the audience
being addressed from the stage you’re
gonna see groups of people being
addressed from the stage it’s got to be
funny all the way through at the same
time there’s got to be concrete messages
that your organization can incorporate
right away first of all we spend so much
of our time working you might as well
enjoy it but especially if we remember
that happiness helps us succeed why
we’re gonna go over this next slide in
excruciating detail let’s look at it
at the top you can see our little silo
this and you’re down below is your
mission then we got the dragon eaters
down near the bottom we’re gonna get
them laughing we’re going to get them
playing and we’re gonna get them looking
at each other and saying this guy’s
funny and when they do that that’s when
they really start to listen to the
message all you have to do is read Susie
the brochure of what you guys are
dealing with what you guys have been
learning about holy smokes
lot of happy topics in there let me tell
you
wow I didn’t know hospice could be so
fun and the message is that it’s to go
we’re gonna take it with us there’s no
reason in the world why you’re not going
to take this all the way through the
rest of the day there’s no reason in the
world you’re not gonna take this feeling
back home to your friends and to your
family and especially there’s no reason
why you’re not going to bring it back to
work back to Harrison to let it trickle
down to those students who need you and
deserve you you’re gonna take it back in
your cars and on your planes you’re
gonna take it to your families we’re
gonna do something I don’t know what it
is I don’t know what that means for you
but you are gonna do things that bring
joy to yourself they bring happiness to
others you were gonna spread the word
cuz it makes you better at what you do
it makes you better at home it makes you
better here at work it makes you
healthier it makes you better we’ve
joked about everything I know this is an
offense panacea but I’m telling you if
there was ever a group of people who
deserved to be happy it’s you and you
know how to do it it’s time to get
started
