SPEAKING TOPICS
Unlocking the Power of Leadership: Inspiring Teams to Achieve Greatness
Shawn Meaike built one of the fastest-growing life insurance companies in the country by doing what most leaders talk about but rarely execute: leading with clarity, consistency, and unapologetic authenticity. After scaling from a handful of agents to thousands and generating billions in revenue, he’s distilled what truly moves teams from compliant to committed, from average to exceptional.
In this keynote, Shawn breaks down leadership into its simplest—and most demanding—components: trust, accountability, and vision your team can actually feel, not just hear. He shares the real-world lessons, missteps, and mindset shifts that shaped his own leadership journey, giving audiences a blueprint they can use immediately to elevate their own teams, culture, and performance.
Audience Takeaways:
• How great leaders create direction, momentum, and buy-in without overcomplicating the playbook.
• The specific communication habits that build trust, loyalty, and high morale.
• Why authenticity isn’t optional—and how to show up as a leader people genuinely want to follow.
• A practical framework for developing leaders at every level of the organization.
• How to build a culture of accountability that motivates instead of intimidates.
The Power of Culture: Creating an Environment for Success
When Shawn founded his company, he knew culture would be its competitive edge. What he didn’t know was just how far a relentless focus on people, standards, and shared values would take the organization. Today, its culture is widely regarded as one of the engines behind its explosive growth and billion-dollar trajectory.
In this keynote, Shawn reveals how he intentionally shaped a culture built on trust, ownership, and genuine care—while avoiding the traps that derail most organizations. He shows leaders how to create environments where people want to stay, want to grow, and want to win. This is culture without fluff: measurable, scalable, and designed for real results.
Audience Takeaways:
• The foundational elements of a culture that attracts top talent and keeps them.
• How to build values people actually live, not memorize.
• Why culture must be engineered—never assumed.
• Practical strategies for fostering innovation, resilience, and psychological safety.
• How to align culture with performance so everyone rows in the same direction.
Built to Close: How High Performers Win Consistently
Shawn Meaike built and led a sales force that grew from zero to thousands and produced billions in revenue, not by chasing trends or “sales hacks,” but by creating disciplined, confident sellers who knew how to win day after day. In this keynote, he brings that same real-world experience designed for sales kickoffs, sales retreats, and revenue teams looking to sharpen their edge.
Blending motivation with practical strategy, Shawn equips sales teams with tools they can apply immediately to increase confidence, build trust with prospects, and close more business, without losing their integrity or burning out. He focuses on the habits, mindset, and behaviors that separate consistent top performers from everyone else, and reframes culture not as a company initiative, but as a personal responsibility.
Audience Takeaways:
• The mindset and daily disciplines of consistent top performers.
• How to sell with confidence, clarity, and conviction, without sounding scripted or pushy.
• Practical strategies to improve prospecting, follow-up, and pipeline momentum.
