The Unspoken Rules of Leadership
Jamie Turner, 60 Second Marketer
We all want to learn how to be better leaders, mentors, and managers. The problem is that we need a roadmap that shows us the way. That’s where Jamie Turner comes in.
The Unspoken Rules uses science-based techniques to help you work more productively, more efficiently, and more thoughtfully with those around you.
Over the course of the day, each of the four components of the roadmap will be addressed.
- Mindset: You will learn how to improve your thinking as a way to improve business outcomes.
- Mentoring: You will learn how to build a bridge between yourself and the people you are working with.
- Management: As a team leader, you will be taught science-based persuasion and communication techniques.
- Marketing: You will learn how to communicate with intention, how to make effective presentations, and how to build a personal brand that resonates with others.
There are two key things to remember about The Unspoken Rules process — first, we will make learning fun. And second, the learning provided sticks around. You will learn science-based techniques to ensure that what you learn stays with you over the long run.

Set Goals All the Time
Jeremy Wall, Goalmakers
Do you come to work, every day, knowing what your personal goals are? More so, could you or others at your office tell me what the company’s goals are for this year? In this session, you will learn where to start and how to continually improve your own goalsetting process, both for the short and long-term goals. Effective leaders use goals to align the entire team around a shared vision of the future, and as a tool to empower those around them to focus on the daily actions and decisions that move the entire organization toward defining and achieving success.
Learning Outcomes:
- Refine your long-term goal, aka your vision, that moves everyone together toward a shared future.
- Understand the three fundamental types of organization-wide goals (financial, customer, & employee) and how to measure and manage each.
- Establish the frameworks that must be in place to create ‘good goals’ for the company, departments, and individuals.
Meet Jeremy Wall
Set Goals all the Time is presented by Jeremy Wall, co-founder and CEO, of GoalMakers and the lead facilitator of the online Master Manager portion of the NAFCD/NBMDA Emerging Distribution Leaders program. Understanding that most managers have never been taught the fundamentals of people management or business finance, Wall has a passion for simplifying these concepts into practical and applicable lessons to help businesses define & achieve their goals. After building his previous business, an IoT safety company, Wall did private consulting before joining esteemed coach and author John Cioffi to expand this knowledge to all business owners, managers, and future leaders through GoalMakers programs.
