Keynote Topics

Keynote #1 : ACTIVATE! Unleash the Brainpower and Potential of The People You Lead

It's an unfortunate truth. Most leaders don't know how to bring out the best in their people. Managers and leaders too often default to threats and rewards that lead to decreased motivation, disengagement, and underperformance. Activators, on the other hand, are leaders who understand how to unleash the best in their people using practical applications of behavior and brain science. They activate the brains of their people by lighting them up through intentional interactions and experiences, resulting in greater focus, energy, engagement, and self-directed work.

This keynote is based on Dr. Jones's best-selling book, Activator: Using Brain Science to Boost Motivation, Deepen Engagement, and Supercharge Performance. Utilizing three neuroscience principles that can be applied to the workplace, Jason shares three daily leadership practices that are rooted in science and can be implemented immediately to make a measurable impact on employee motivation and engagement, while building a high-performance culture where people want to do their best.

Attendees gain:

1. Insight into what really motivates and engages people at work.

2. The three daily leadership practices every leader can use to activate the full brain.

3. Discover how to prime behavior and high performance by using Activation Words.

4. Six neuroscience-based strategies to activate the brain, boost energy, enhance emotional intelligence, and facilitate high-performance.

5. Tools to provide constructive feedback and guide team members through change to ensure faster adaptation and growth.

Keynote #2 : NeuroAdaptive Leadership: Leading with Agility in the Age of AI

In an era of unprecedented disruption, AI is reshaping entire industries overnight. Workplace volatility and decision complexity are increasing exponentially and traditional leadership approaches are failing. Leaders are burning out, teams are fragmenting, and organizations are struggling to adapt fast enough to survive, let alone thrive.

This groundbreaking keynote introduces NeuroAdaptive Leadership, a revolutionary approach that transforms how leaders think, feel, and perform by aligning with the brain's natural capacity to rewire itself. Unlike conventional leadership models that focus outward on techniques and tactics, NeuroAdaptive Leadership focuses inward on developing a new operating system for how your brain works under pressure.

Drawing from cutting-edge neuroscience and behavioral research, this presentation reveals how leaders can consciously evolve their neural architecture to not just survive at the edge of uncertainty, but to thrive there. You'll discover how to harness neuroadaptivity to develop the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral agility needed for exponential leadership impact.

This keynote doesn't just change how you think about leadership—it changes how your brain approaches leadership itself.

Attendees Gain:

1. Master the Art of Conscious Neural Rewiring – Learn specific techniques to identify and transform unproductive thought and emotional patterns that limit your leadership effectiveness.

2. Develop Adaptive Speed – Discover how to calibrate your brain to adapt faster than your environment changes, turning volatility into competitive advantage.

3.Build Unshakeable Emotional Resilience – Gain practical tools to manage the emotional upheaval of uncertainty, pressure, and stress without burning out or backing down.
Unlock Mental Toughness and Growth Agility – Learn how to leverage neuroplasticity to develop the mental fortitude and learning velocity needed for continuous evolution.

4. Create Psychologically Safe High-Performance Cultures – Understand how your inner neural state directly influences team dynamics and discover methods to foster both safety and exceptional results.

5. Navigate AI Integration Strategically – Develop the cognitive frameworks to lead ethically and effectively in an AI-augmented world while maintaining human-centered leadership.

6. Transform Complexity into Clarity – Master decision-making processes that work with your brain's architecture to cut through ambiguity and make confident choices under pressure.

Keynote #3 : EVOLVE & THRIVE : Building a Mindset to Win in Any Situation

Effective leadership is more than driving results and accountability. The best leaders create experiences for their employees that unleash the best in them to adapt, evolve, and thrive in the midst of change, uncertainty, and ambiguity.

Our current work environment is changing faster than ever before and requires every person to have a continually evolving mindset and skillset to navigate the rapid rate of disruption. In this session, Dr. Jones inspires audience members to evolve their thinking and language and then challenges each participant to choose to thrive by applying intentional daily behaviors.

Jason shares with the audience how to reflect and reframe thinking and language that hinders their confidence and motivation. Then teaches how to replace sabotaging self-talk and behavior that can create performance breakthroughs. All of this while inspiring each person to take action to thrive each day by leveraging personal strengths and collaborating with their colleagues to achieve and win at a higher level.

Attendees gain:

1. Insight into how our brain helps and hinders us during change and disruption.

2. Tools to abolish negative thinking and pessimism.

3. Insights to manage burnout and build resilience.

4. A set of "Power Words" that will prime others for positivity and high performance.
