Ignite Unstoppable Momentum™ Harness the Power of Adaptability, Resilience, and Mindset in a Rapidly Changing World that NEVER. SLOWS. DOWN.
Program Description:
There is no normal or new normal. There is only what’s now and what’s next. Changes, challenges, and uncertainty are hurtling toward us at breakneck speed, and it’s messy and unpredictable. This constant disruption and uncertainty has kicked off a brutal cycle of overwhelm for our leaders, teams, and organizations, leading to fear, resistance to change, and unhealthy levels of stress.
It’s time to stop the cycle. It’s time to Stop....
Resign as General Manager of the Universe Refresh, Refuel, and Refocus YOURSELF in an Overwhelming World That Never Slows Down
Program Description:
Kim has a secret to share. There’s no such thing as work-life balance! In this fast-paced, chaotic, work-from-anywhere, high-stress world, life is anything but balanced.

Accelerate Unstoppable Momentum™ Stay Gritty, Shift Your Mindset, and Grow Your Sales During Uncertain Times
Program Description:
Between market uncertainty, emerging technologies (Hello, AI!), evolving customer expectations, and so much more, sales leaders and teams are facing change at every level - the way they work, live, lead, interact, and, yes, even sell. Without the ability to anticipate shifts, adapt to new circumstances, sustain resilience under pressure, and demonstrate unwavering grit, they’ll struggle to thrive in this fast-paced,...

Verificado @chs-mi.comThe WOW factor! Kim ranks among the very best speakers I've ever encountered during my 25+ years in securing speakers for Covenant HealthCare. She was an electrifying speaker who had our audience on the edge of their seats from the moment she walked on stage. Her presentation was more than a one-hour keynote-it was a thrilling, inspiring, laugh-out-loud experience that was spot on for our audience.

Verificado @kcaerc.org“Kim's inspirational words to the Griffiths Leadership Society served as a catalyst for connections among diverse and distinguished Mizzou student leaders and alumnae. Sharing leadership lessons through personal life experiences, Kim engaged our members and guests. We were on the edge of our seats, alternating between laughing aloud as she tickled our funny-bones and wiping tears, as she tugged at our heart strings. I think we all retired that evening with a renewed belief in what is important in life and ideas of how we might want to try to make the world a better place, as Kim has by example.”

M.M., President, Columbia Chamber of Commerce
Verificado @columbiamochamber.comWhen the COVID-19 pandemic hit, our Chamber was looking to continue to provide support, value and tools to our members to help them not just survive but thrive during the ongoing uncertainty and challenges. Kim Becking had spoken to our members before, so we knew she could provide the program that would motivate our members. As always, Kim went above and beyond. She created a customized a 3-part Momentum Mindset series focusing on personal, team and organizational resilience. Kim's ability to connect and bring energy to a virtual environment gave our members the support they needed. Kim put our team at ease with her professional virtual studio and tech expertise - she was even able to teach our staff a few things about technology and how to deliver impactful virtual programs and connect in a more effective way during this time. Our members and staff are still talking about Kim's program months later. One member said, "Kim made me stop in my tracks and really think about what my people need right now and showed me how to be a compassionate, empathetic and heart led leader, especially during tough times." Whether virtual or in-person we will work with Kim in the future to help our business leaders continue to adapt, boost their resilience to build a stronger Columbia.
