Jeffrey delivered an exceptional keynote presentation at our annual tourism conference. His ability to take his experience and deliver it in such a way that he understood the character profile of the group and unique needs of our region and organization was refreshing in a keynote space that is dominated by cookie-cutter presenters and styles. If you want a captivating speaker that will take the time to truly understand your goals and audience and deliver inspirational messaging and ideas with tangible takeaways, then look no further than Jeffrey Davis. With the weight of delivering a successful event on my shoulders, it was an absolute pleasure to work with Jeffrey and his team from start to finish. I always had the sense that they really and truly cared about our desired outcomes and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Tracking Wonder again!”

“I had the good fortune of attending one of Jeffrey’s book events. Jeffrey exuded a depth of mastery on the topic of wonder and possibility and human-centered conscious living that left an entire crowd at once breathless and reconnected with their own breath. His talk was just sublime in the most giving and accessible way. Watch his space because Tracking Wonder is going to take a lot of worlds by storm.”

AN OPEN CULTURE OF WONDER

In-person and distributed teams are challenged with staying connected and collaborative, day-in and day-out.

However, where there’s challenge, there’s also great opportunity to connect better than ever. In this talk, Jeffrey Davis shares the core ways that creative teams recognize every player’s innate genius at work, the six facets of wonder that anyone can track, and the specific rituals leaders use to foster more genuine connection. In short, a culture of wonder fuels people at every level within an organization to bust biased ways of what is and create what could be.

WHY WONDER NOW

Beyond grit, focus, and 10,000 hours of practice lies a surprising advantage that all creatives have – wonder.  Far from child’s play, wonder is the one radical quality that has led exemplary people from all walks of life to move toward the fruition of their deepest dreams and wildest endeavors. 

In this talk, Jeffrey offers a short story of humanity to demonstrate how “the lost art of wonder” opens a pathway to greater creativity and fulfillment.

Wondrous Take-aways:

Three science-based ways that experiences of wonder boost flexible thinking and collaboration.
Why pursuing curiosity instead of passion leads to long-term fulfillment.
The two mistakes leaders make when connecting.
The three easy-to-remember practices to foster genuine connection.

BREAKING BETTER VS BREAKING BAD

Working non-stop for hours on end is not honorable. It’s exhausting. The good news is that individuals, leaders, and companies alike can change the way we work by changing the ways we break. In this talk, Jeffrey Davis lays out the evidence for why human beings are more distracted in our times than ever and what we can do about it from the individual level and the systems level.

Wondrous Take-aways:

The two states of mind that debilitate well-being at work.
The brain is wired for distraction, but you can trip your own wiring.
Americans’ guilt about leisure correlates with increased anxiety and depression.
The 3 science-based principles for breaking better.
How to up your ratio of being in focus & flow during any work day by breaking better.
How to unfocus & break better to boost creativity, well-being, and connection.
Three tricks to be less reactive when things don’t go as expected.

I also conduct numerous workshops and labs. These Labs are half-day and full-day experiences aimed to help teams be flexible, focused and collaborative.

“It’s not every day that you work with someone who has the pragmatism and wisdom of a business person and the creativity and expressiveness of an artist. My team and I had the good fortune to work with Jeffrey Davis while building my start-up company. Not only was Jeffrey able to help clarify our business plan, but he also helped us to shape the compelling story of why we chose to create our product in the first place. And in doing so, he was also able to help us identify our core values, define the core problem our business is solving, and bring us closer together as a team.”
