Welcome to the podcast; I\\u2019m Jamie Smart, and I\\u2019ve really been looking forward to this one.\\xa0

Last summer, in August 2021, I flew to Rome to deliver a keynote speech to 80 military and civilian personnel at the NATO Defense College.

My brief was to help them have greater clarity, less stress, more productivity and stronger professional relationships (the college has staff from 20 member states, so good communication is essential).

There was one problem: my contact warned me that the military personnel wouldn\\u2019t enjoy my talk. He explained these were experienced senior officers (colonels, generals etc) who already felt they had all the EQ they needed. He said they\\u2019d likely be checked out and checking their watches during my session.

So here\\u2019s the thing: I love a challenge.

I made it my mission to get everyone fully engaged and have a big impact as I shared the principles with them.

The topics we covered ranged from from Napoleon to Netflix, from strategic insight to the unsuspected superpowers everyone has.

It was the first live in-person talk I\\u2019d done in over 18 months (because of lockdown). For the first 10-15 minutes, you may be able to hear the adrenaline in my voice, but this ended up being a great teaching point when we talked about the link between rabbits and your innate capacity for handling stress\\xa0

My aim is always to be practical without being prescriptive, leverage spiritual principles without being woo-woo, to have a big impact without being earnest and to share a good feeling in the process, so I hope this keynote meets these criteria for you.

By the way, at the end of this month, I\\u2019m going to kick off the only Thriving Coaches Blueprint programme we\\u2019re going to be running this year, and the last one I\\u2019m ever going to run in the 12-week form we\\u2019ve taken over 500 coaches, therapists and trainers through over the past 8 years.
