Why John?

With so many corporate trainers, speakers and experts in the world today, choosing who to hire for your next event can appear to be a confusing and daunting challenge.

So what makes John Von Achen the right choice for your next event?


John is PROVEN
As a speaker and trainer, John Von Achen has over 1,200 seminars, conferences and professional speaking engagements to his credit, so he knows exactly what makes the difference between a mediocre presentation and an outstanding experience. His energetic, no-holds-barred style is a unique blend of positive energy, solid content and practical application that has impressed and empowered audiences from all over the world.

John has REAL WORLD EXPERIENCE
John is not an academic or theorist, rather his experience and the content he shares with audiences is “real world”. This is due to John’s substantial experience as a business owner and C.E.O. Furthermore, because of his vast experience with strategic consulting and corporate reorganizations projects (over 200), John Von Achen understands the nature and process of managing fast moving change and operating a business under extreme and stressful conditions.

John is RELEVANT
Because John is currently active as a C.E.O., business owner and a corporate strategist, his experience and wisdom is not from yesterday . . . it comes from the HERE and NOW! Rather than sharing the theories and formulas of yesterday, all content John shares with audiences is fresh, innovative and relevant for today in today’s market conditions.

John CUSTOMIZES EVERYTHING
John believes his job is to create a program specifically for you, not give you a program created for someone else. This is why John goes to great lengths to work with all of his clients to create programs that are specifically tailored and customized. Regardless of the city, country, specific market conditions or special needs of a particular audience, John and his team extensively research each client and their specific situation to ensure John understands the specifics of their business, market and the environment they are working in.

John is PRACTICAL
John is all about achievement and results, so it should come as no surprise that when he speaks, audiences find what he shares extremely practical. All programs John creates offer participants realistic strategies, transferable skills and precise methodologies they can take home with them. And, since John Von Achen delivers the “how-to” and not just the “what-to”, audiences can easily implement what they have learned to achieve greater success in their personal and professional lives. This ensures an audience receives “real value” from an event with John, not merely a nice time.

John is a VISIONARY
John’s initial reaction to the global financial crisis and recession was the release of his now best selling book, CRISIS, A Handbook for Executives and Managers to Survive and Succeed in Turbulent Times. This has positioned John as a leading “recession recovery expert” in the market and as someone who can offer executives and their organizations real solutions to the challenges they are living through every day.

Additionally, John has developed a new line up of “Crisis Proof” training programs unlike any available on the market today. More than a traditional seminar or lecture, each has been designed like an intensive “boot camp”, each full of recession and crisis specifics, practical details, checklists, roadmaps and action plans for participants to take home with them to begin implementing immediately. These programs have been developed with the following audiences in mind:

• Business owners and senior executives
• Sales executives
• HR executives
• Sales professionals
• Small business owners and entrepreneurs

John has DRIVE
Even though John does not consider himself a “motivator” per se, there is no doubt that he is known for his incredible ability to educate and energize audiences simultaneously. His exciting, inspirational and high-energy style is truly unique. This offers participants the most up-to-date information and strategies and leaves them feeling as if they can accomplish the impossible. (And most of them do!)

John is COST EFFECTIVE
All programs John Von Achen delivers focus on results rather than activity. This is why individuals and organizations not only enjoy greater success after listening to and learning from John, but also realize an outstanding return on their investment.

John offers SUPPORT
John is not a one-man show. He has developed a team of event management professionals who work to ensure every time John speaks, everything goes according to plan and the audience experience is professional and memorable. So, if you are new to organizing events and training programs, John’s team is able and willing to back you up. If you are a veteran in event management, you will sleep better knowing John has your back covered.

John WON’T SET YOU UP
For your next event, nothing could be worse than choosing a speaker or trainer who was unable to connect with your audience, provide relevant and practical material or bored your audience out of their mind. With John, this NEVER happens. Rather, John will help you to look good. And his extensive and prestigious list of satisfied customers is a testament to that fact see client list.
