Are you waiting for something great to happen in your company, like a major breakthrough or a new market opening up? Rather than just hope that the magic moment miraculously appears, why not take a more proactive approach and bring in Robert Fishbone to work with you and your staff.

Fishbone, an artist turned successful entrepreneur and author, has taken a fearless approach to business…some have called it naïve because he charged into everything he did assuming ultimate success, rarely sticking to a formal plan. With this methodology he naturally learned business the hard way, one mistake after another. The upside is that he not only found innovative solutions for getting beyond bumps in the road, but by thinking outside of established practices (as in pick your box, any box) he created a line of edgy products that have been sold successfully in twenty different countries.

 

Along with Fishbone’s keynote speech, “Selling the Scream”, he leads fun and informative workshops and breakout sessions on entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, innovative approaches to reinventing a product and creative risk taking – in short, getting your brain and company unstuck so you can discover new solutions to your problems and rise above and beyond the competition. Through pre-event discussions Fishbone will customize his material to meet the mission and current challenges of your company.

Testimonials

 

“Robert Fishbone taught me that no idea is too crazy or unworthy of consideration. What I have started to do in my organization is carry around a little notebook so that anytime I have a crazy idea, no matter where I am, I write it down. Every Friday I look at the best idea I had for the week and see what I can do to implement it.”

Justin Lacey, Employment Manager

“…always on the lookout for ways to motivate and inspire our employees, we had the fortunate opportunity to work with Robert during a time of historic chaos and growth. Robert provided a warm welcoming environment for our employees, engaging their participation in team building and creative workshops. The exercises and workshops truly motivated and inspired our employees. My advice…Try to utilize Robert’s skills because his workshops deliver results you can measure. We did and we saw measurable improvements!”

“One speaker that stood out was the ‘Scream’ creator Robert Fishbone.  He was an artist and knew nothing about business, but he took a chance on his idea and made millions.  Many would have laughed in his face (I am sure they did) about his idea, but he was passionate about it and followed through.  His unabashed enthusiasm to see his idea to fruition was remarkable.  He taught himself all about business: production, shipping, accounting, procurement, etc. just to see his idea take off.  I admire that gung ho attitude and ambition to believe in yourself and your idea.”
