Max Garcia's 2024 talks & topics
Resilience and Accomplishing your #1 Goal
Everyone goes through tough times because that’s how we learn and grow. However, you don’t have to stay in the whirlwinds of life chaos that pull from every direction leading to frustration, stress, and failure in business and personal life. This inspiring session pulls from Max’s near death experience of not only surviving chaos but thriving above it so that a busy and overwhelmed professional can achieve a life full of love, health, and wealth.
Sergeant Major’s Confidence Course
Hear Max’s story of growing up with terrible low self esteem due to being adopted from an orphanage in Mexico, struggling in school, sports, social skills, and what was learned as a Marine that changed everything. Learn how confidence is wounded for many during childhood and how to instantly improve self esteem for any situation.
Sergeant Major’s Sales System
“Nearly 70% of sales people claim they have not received any formal training” (Dooly 2022). Those who have received training forget 84% of it within 90 days. Sergeant Major’s Sales System is a 30 point system that’s easy to implement and includes everything from body language, communication with the subconscious mind to persuade, how to get more referrals from existing clients, presentation skills, importance of personal appearance, how to follow up without following up or feeling awkward, how to prospect everywhere and the importance of social proof and credibility.
Leadership Loyalty and Maximizing Performance
One of the biggest challenges for executives is finding and keeping good people. However, you don’t have to struggle during the “Great Resignation” or tolerate poor performance. This keynote comes from Max’s experience leading thousands of people in combat environments so executives can accomplish the mission, while spending significantly less time on personnel issues.
