Instant Change™ happens when you learn:
- Who you truly are,
- Who adds value to you,
- Who minimizes your value,
- Who makes you stronger,
- Who weakens you,
- What is important, and
- What is a waste of time and energy!
With his powerful Home Plate™ methodology at the core, Peter will teach you how to quickly value the relevance of every person or organization based on your core values. He will guide you through the steps to creating a Home Plate™ for yourself that will apply to your personal, family, and business life. You will learn the answers to questions such as:
-
Who are you?
-
Who is your company?
-
How do you describe your company so people “get it”?
-
How do you grow relationships that could change the value of who you are – who your company is?
-
How do you identify people who aren’t acting in your best interest?
-
How do you build trust to help accelerate business immediately?
-
Why customers are more important than money?
-
Why most VC’s and investors will not tell you that you’re not relevant?
-
What is the difference between ego and confidence?
-
Why saying “I don’t know” could be more important than what you do know?
-
Why do 99% of early-stage businesses fail?
-
Why being naïve could be your greatest asset?
-
Why perception is more important than reality?
-
How do you change your business from being wanted to being needed?

“What is a homeplate? It isn't a vision. It isn't a mission statement. It isn't core values. It is the essence of you and your purpose. Unlike other personal development techniques – which leave you probing, "Is this really me?" or "Could I be this person with time and discipline?" – with the homeplate, you step back and say THAT'S ME, no personal development required! Environment and circumstance change but your homeplate is constant. Like a compass, your homeplate guides you, aligning your creations, decisions and ultimately your lifeworks. Whether personal or professional, your homeplate can be thrown into any "game" to ensure you run with clarity, momentum and fulfilling purpose.”
