“Successful people don't only set their intention once a year and call it a New Year’s Resolution. They set it for every single activity.” - Christopher Dedeyan Welcome to another week of Tactical Leader! In today’s episode, Christopher Dedeyan joins us to share his incredible story from struggling in school with a learning disability to becoming a keynote speaker and performance expert whose mission is to bring out the potential and gifts of others. We discuss daily self-mastery and how the key to getting the most out of every opportunity is by setting your intentions. Stay tuned!    Christopher Dedeyan is a professional speaker and peak performance expert who helps entrepreneurs, leaders, and employees alike manage stress, increase productivity, and have more energy. He always gets his message across in a humoristic, charming, energetic, and passionate way. He developed his entrepreneurial skills and communication skills during the five years he built and ran his real estate brokerage company. During that time, Christopher noticed that he could help his colleagues with self-development by incorporating new rituals and habits in their lives that help them not only in their business but in their personal lives as well. Diagnosed with dyslexia at the age of eight, he was faced with many failures along the way. Because of his relentless attitude of never giving up, the failures taught him how to succeed. He attributes a huge part of his success as an entrepreneur to the lessons he learned growing up in the schooling system as a dyslexic. Christopher helps his coaching clients to become the best versions of themselves. He truly believes in self-development. He doesn’t only talk the talk but he walks the walk with himself having eight coaches and mentors for all facets and aspects of life. These advisors help him and keep him accountable to become the best version of himself so he can ultimately serve others. Christopher has spoken in front of thousands of people. In classrooms, universities, companies & professional associations as a keynote speaker. He has been featured in Le Devoir, Canal Vie’s “La Belle Gang” & has worked with the Ministry of Education of Quebec for their policy on educational success.   [00:01 - 04:03] Opening Segment If you have a platform and you want to create content that DELIVERS, go over tohttp://knightly.productions/ ( knightly.productions)!
