The key to better performance isn’t more intensity, it’s less noise

As the world grows busier and the speed of change increases, there is more noise in our lives than ever before. As a result, the pressure and demand placed on leaders today is increasing – and they’re becoming distracted from their priorities, disconnected from their teams and burning out while performing at a fraction of their potential.

But there is a select group of leaders that have cracked the code. They are maximizing their performance, unleashing their potential and finding more innovation & belonging along the way. These leaders have one thing in common: they’ve mastered how to filter noise…

In his actionable and interactive keynotes, Jesse reveals his Amplified Quiet Framework – a set of unexpected principles and practices that today’s top leaders live by to quiet the noise and amplify the best of who they are in work and life.

From founding a dorm-room record label with multi-platinum bands to starting a movement filling arenas with people in silence, Jesse takes audiences on a one-of-a-kind journey…

Pulling from two decades of founding various companies including a popular record label and tech fund, to becoming a pioneer in the wellness space as the founder of The Big Quiet, Jesse’s keynotes leverage a breadth of experience, storytelling and insight unlike any other speaker in the market.

  • As the speed of change and technological advancement continues to accelerate – and with more noise in our lives than ever before – the cross pressures and demands placed on today’s leaders has reached new heights. It’s nearly impossible for them to avoid distraction, stay connected to their teams, and manage burn-out while performing at their full capacity.

    A select group of leaders, however, has cracked the code. From his work with some of the most elite performers in the world, Jesse Israel has seen first hand that there’s one thing they all have in common: they’ve mastered the art of quieting noise.

    In this actionable and interactive keynote, Jesse Israel – 5x Audible worldwide bestseller and founder of the global movement The Big Quiet – reveals his Amplified Quiet Framework. Utilized by top CEOs, senior White House advisors, Academy and Grammy Award-winning actors and musicians, as well as crowds in sold-out arenas on tour with Oprah Winfrey, Jesse’s transformational framework provides leaders with the tools they need to navigate uncertainty, build resilience and activate their dormant potential by quieting the noise of the world, the noise in their heads and the noise within their bodies.

    Audiences will leave energized, clear and purposeful – equipped to break through performance barriers and tackle the speed of change that the world continues to throw their way.

    Key Audience Takeaways:

    • Science-backed practices for making better decisions faster and accessing innate creativity

    • A framework for enhancing performance and finding energy in any role at any company

  • Even with the speed of the world today, it’s still only a fraction of what it’ll be in the years to come. In this era of disconnection and distraction, the leaders of today are faced with challenges, cross pressures and demands they’ve never seen before. This ever evolving business landscape has resulted in teams finding themselves ill-equipped for the future, lacking connection and struggling to keep up with the pace of change.

    As a 5x Audible worldwide bestseller and founder of the global movement The Big Quiet, Jesse Israel has coached and studied some of today’s most elite performers – from visionary CEOs and senior White House advisors, to top physicians and Academy Award-winning actors. His Amplified Quiet Framework allows leaders of all levels to quiet the noise in and around them, connect at a deeper level with their team and perform at their best – not because they have to, but because they want to. Jesse’s unexpected approach to high-performance was recently recognized by Oprah Winfrey, when she invited him to share highlights of his framework with sold out audiences on her most recent arena tour.

    This immersive and moving keynote is perfect for those who are ready to enhance their leadership from the inside out, improve their ability to navigate today’s challenges and inspire true performance without pushing harder.

    To maintain our well-being, focus, and performance amidst the chaos, we need the essential skill of filtering noise. Jesse Israel teaches exactly how to do that with his Amplified Quiet Framework.

  • Every leader within every organization has an enormous reservoir of power, purpose and potential within themselves. But most leaders only access a tiny fraction of what’s available inside. Why? Because of the unrelenting noise of the world, noise in their heads and noise in their bodies.

    As a result, the cross pressures and demands placed on today’s leaders has reached new heights, making it nearly impossible for them to avoid distraction, effectively collaborate with their teams and manage burn-out while performing at a fraction of their full capacity. For organizations, this means that too much dormant potential is being left on the table.
