ON SPEAKING
Travis Bradberry People can be better than they ever imagined by learning how to increase their emotional intelligence.

CORE Agency What do you want people to learn / take away from your presentations?

Travis Bradberry
 That people can be better than they ever imagined by learning how to increase their emotional intelligence.

CORE Agency What kind of special prep work do you do prior to an event? How do you prepare for your speaking engagements?

Travis Bradberry
 First, I get on the phone with the client who has invited me to come speak. Each client is different and I craft my EQ presentation to meet their needs. I ask many questions to set expectations for how and what I can deliver to meet their needs. Next, I prepare something that will knock their socks off.

It’s hard to understand why people were so nervous, but it was a very uncertain time.

CORE Agency Have you had any particularly memorable speaking engagements / unusual situations arise while on the road?

Travis Bradberry
 Shortly after 9/11 a homeless man who had wandered into the venue through an open service door came into my session, walked up to the stage, and asked me for some water. He had many extra layers of clothing on which made people really nervous, because they thought he might have a bomb. I gave him some water and had him sit down and we took a little break so people could calm down. Looking back, it’s hard to understand why people were so nervous, but it was a very uncertain time. I asked my client if they sent him in as an EQ test for me.

Another time I sat next to Oakland A’s great Dave Stewart on a flight from a speaking engagement and we talked baseball the whole way home to San Diego.

CORE Agency What types of audiences would most benefit from your message?

Travis Bradberry
 It really runs the gamut, but I often speak to leaders, high potentials, sales, and engineering groups.

CORE Agency Which of your keynote speaking topics are your favorites and why?

Travis Bradberry
 Emotional intelligence, of course!

CORE Agency What inspired you to start doing speaking engagements?

Travis Bradberry
 The energy in the room. It’s palpable.

CORE Agency How much do case studies, personal stories and or humor factor into your keynote speech content?

Travis Bradberry
 I incorporate all three quite a bit.

I’ve been very fortunate to be able to help my clients succeed with EQ.

CORE Agency What are some of the successes you've helped clients make?

Travis Bradberry
 I’ve been very fortunate to be able to help my clients succeed with EQ. Here are some examples:

  • Created a cutting-edge leadership development solution, with real accountability for results.
  • Invested in EQ as the foundation for staff who empathize with and respond to guest needs.
  • Increased self-awareness to take C-suite leader performance to the next level.
