Mastering Life Balance…Achieving Greatness at Home and at Work

This talk has been changing peoples’ lives and Gary delivers a powerful and compelling message on how to achieve life balance and how to maximize joy and contentment in your life both at work and at home. Why pick between loving your home life or your work life when you can love your “whole” life. This talk is based on the book written by Gary Kunath entitled, Life….Don’t Miss It.

People are the foundation to gaining a sustainable competitive advantage and are a crucial factor in the long term success of any company. Focusing on employee/family well-being is critical and serves as the conduit to increasing innovation, emotional loyalty, natural productivity and the customer experience. Employee well-being is very smart business and everyone wins. Current research shows that over 70% of employees today would sacrifice promotions and pay increases for family well – being. Yet only 40% of employees feel their employers demonstrate that they care about them. For any company that values its people and has health and wellness and employee/family well- being initiatives…this session is a MUST!! Gary shows how to achieve a high “Life Worth” by dramatically maximizing the joy and contentment in their professional and personal work lives.

Many think that professional well- being drives personal well- being, but in truth it is exact opposite. Achieving greatness professionally requires that you achieve greatness personally. By elevating the joy and contentment in your own life, you will become more innovative and productive at work and in life. It is important to positively affect your own life before you can truly affect the lives of others.

He will move the audience through laughter and through tears as well as making them think deeply about they can make their entire life better than their “best” vacation. His “Ten Points of Life” outlines a clear path on how to achieve a high life worth and stay connected to what truly matters.
