The Success Factor: Developing the Mindset and Skillset for Peak Performance
📅 April 23 | ⏰ 12:00–1:30 PM (ET) | 💲$15
What if you could reverse-engineer the world’s highest performers?
Not the clichés. Not the platitudes. The real habits behind extraordinary success.
In this electrifying keynote, Dr. Ruth Gotian (EdD '17) pulls back the curtain on decades of research and hundreds of interviews with some of the most accomplished people on earth—astronauts, Nobel Prize winners, Fortune-level CEOs, and Olympic and NBA champions. What she discovered is that high achievers are not born…they are built. And they all share the same four core attributes that anyone can learn and apply: intrinsic motivation, perseverance, a strong foundation, and a lifelong commitment to learning.
Get ready for a highly interactive, invigorating experience that meets you where you are -- and elevates where you're going.
This isn’t just a talk. It’s a transformation -- one that will leave you inspired, equipped, and ready to take bold, decisive action.
If you’re ready to ignite your goals, amplify your performance, and step fully into the success you were built for, this keynote is your catalyst.
