The 5am Funeral

Poor People Add, Rich People Multiply, Billionaires Subtract - The Radical Deletion System That Doubled a $2M Investment

Keynote  
Program  
Every morning at 5AM, conduct three funerals: murder one meeting, slaughter one sacred cow, delete one assumption. This radical subtraction system doubled a $2M investment by doing half the work—because transformation begins when you kill what's killing your company. In this provocative keynote, Todd Hagopian reveals why addition is amateur and subtraction is success. Drawing from his unique journey of turning bipolar disorder into a $2B business advantage, Todd shows how the world's most successful leaders win by what they DON'T do. Your audience will learn: The "Three Daily Funerals" that transform companies Why every new initiative should start with three deletions How one company saved $5.2 million in five days through meeting massacre The psychology of subtraction (and why it's so hard) A step-by-step system for identifying what to kill first This presentation gives leaders permission—and a proven process—to delete their way to dominance. Attendees leave with a hit list of what to eliminate Monday morning and the courage to pull the trigger. Ideal for executives suffocating under complexity, transformation leaders, and anyone who knows their organization is doing too much of the wrong things.
