Self-Proclaimed Expert or Wannabe

Is Your Culture at Stake

Engaging a real expert allows you to quantifiably accelerate your rate of failure and your rate of success. A real expert serves as a force multiplier to you!

Create a partnership and mentor under a subject matter expert, learn from a true achiever that has spent years, if not decades, to accumulate their expertise and from whom you can leverage and learn from them within days, weeks or months.

In today’s robust internet world and need for immediate consumption, the depth of the marketplace subject matter experts and apparent influencers is astonishing. It is like a “kiddie pool of true intellect, understanding, experience and credibility.” Yet most people seem to either be oblivious or are so complacent that they have no sense of care.

Today, what passes for an expert or person of legitimate credentials, would have ten years ago been called a “new hire, a beginner or a neophyte” … With the aging BabyBoomer population and entrance of the Millennials rapidly overtaking the majority of the workforce over the next five years, it is estimated that nearly sixty-percent of those in managerial-leadership and “boss” positions in 2001 will be retired and gone by 2020!

Generations of American’s were reared with cultural mantra’s such as work hard, apply yourself, always learn, have self-respect, achieve, help others, operate from etiquette, and you will be rewarded as this created a DNA of what being an AmeriCAN was all about. Today, we have a generational and

cultural mindset of “reward me first and maybe I’ll work hard.”

In an ever exploding rhetoric infused world, diminishing legitimately integris people, and with this magnitude of loss in experience, intellectual capacity and wisdom, you need to be on your attention to not be a pawn in someone else’s game. The wave of current and impending self-proclaimed experts to emerge and attempt to influence the trajectory direction of the future on the world market place and in your front yard is here!

With the rise of self-proclaimed experts and wannabes, make sure you cover your actions and are a good steward of others. Consider the company you keep and the company you hire. Therefore, consider these simple vetting observations and questions to unearth the real expert from the self-proclaimed: 1. Have they ever done it as an apprentice or beginner? Can they prove it?

2. Have they ever done it as a journeyman or employee/member?

He can be reached at DrJeffSpeaks@aol.com. www.ProfessionalPerformanceMagazine.com

3. Have they ever done it as a master or leader?

4. Can they prove anything based upon fact, data and logic versus emotion, rhetoric and assertions?

5. What would ten of their reputable clients/benefactors say about their deliverables?

6. Is there a degree in their area of specialty, and do they have it?

7. Is there a trade association certification in their area of specialty, and do they have it?

8. Have they ever been featured in a credible third party publication or newswire about their specialty?

9. Have they ever penned a White Paper on their specialty?

10. If appropriate, have they ever authored a book which was published by a credible and reputable publisher?

11. Have they ever designed, written, implemented and taught an instruction course in which they are a self-proclaimed expert?

12. Do they hold a patent, trademark or a copyright certificate on their body-ofwork, expertise or deliverable?

13. Are they the innovator of anything in thier subject matter, or are they an imitator of others work?

14. Have they ever spoken before a body of peer experts in their space?

15. If I go to their website, will it prove they are professional?

16. And above all, Can They Prove It? And here is where you really accelerate catching a self-proclaimed expert wannabe in the act of B.S. which will influence your trajectory towards failure and ultimate derailment: 1. Fact check their resume. If they do not have one, that may be a major clue.

2. If they have harvested others’ credentials and body-of-work as their own. A major clue is yelling at you - fraud.

3. Check the social media world for profiles and begin the process of reverse reading.

You can add more content to the social media world to bury past trails, but it is very difficult to make data disappear.

If their employment changes with the seasons, you need evidence for why they are not a charlatan. If they have quotes for lack of performance that seem to keep coming up in different places and times, then the lack of performance ROI is probably them and not other factors as reported or cited.

4. Check the credentials, pedigree, experiences cited and make sure the math adds up!

5. Ask for several references. If they hesitate or can’t provide plural references which they are servicing both at the present time and past, this is a major red flag – run!

6. A major clue you are in the presence of a self-proclaimed expert that can’t sustain an ROI will be their resistance, persistent deflection to other topics and degrading of others to avoid accountability.

7. If you are in an interviewing process situation, consider asking the candidate for copies of the past employer-employee performance reviews for discussion or a copy of their most recent tax statement – these are major reality checks.

Accountability matters, and how you create or abdicate accountability is critical. Hold on

for the pushback when you are in the presence of a selfproclaimed expert as you will see a life cycle of the following: 1. Culture (generational, ethnicity, regional, diversity, etc.) will be re-written to justify their outcome with no sense of personal ownership and personal responsibility.

2. Values will be abdicated.

3. Deflection (deflect responsibility and blame someone else) away from themself and the core matter by playing the blame game to make someone else the problem and positioning themself as the victim.

Performance success creates clear mandates and dictates. The ramifications of actions, accountability or lack of accountability on you and others now and later when influenced by a self-proclaimed expert is devastating.

Success achievers will not stay within an organization that maintains and sustains this environment of people. So, if you are that self-proclaimed expert, you may want to really do something meaningful, contribute something meaningful, and get a job.

If you have never done anything, don’t proclaim to have done so – step aside and let the real innovators/adults lead the way!

Engaging a real expert allows you to quantifiably accelerate your rate of success.

A real expert serves as a force multiplier to you. Engage a sage as coaches for daily or weekly check-ins and accountability growth opportunities. Identify mentors to develop and guide your growth. Create peer groups that are comprised of people with greater credentials than you to serve as a 360° benchmark for excellence in all that you do. Develop a balanced IQ and EQ with substantial readings and continuous mental DNA enrichments on a regular basis. And, explore all opportunities to mentally tithe to others – but only those that will appreciate you and play-it-forward.

Just as complacency and mediocrity grows contempt, so too can success begets success!

PRESENTATION TOPICS

“Trust is the Soul of Sales”

Believe, Become, Empower As I lay on a stretcher with a broken neck a gold light slowly covered my entire body. Next, two visions appeared directing me on how to lead a better life. The surgeon said, “best case paralysis” but I instantly knew that with Belief in wellness, Becoming the speaker envisioned, and working to Empower audiences far and wide, I would walk out of the hospital. The entire staff on duty referred to me as “the walking miracle.”

How to Build A Global Audience My entire sales career was spent pursuing clientele. The moment social media was announced, I thought to myself, “Finally my wish come true - audiences will pursue me!” With the right strategies in place audiences will learn how Stutz made her wish come true.

Sales On A Higher Plane “When you walk in integrity, you never have to change your story” is one of Stutz’ favorite tweets out of the thousands she created. She advises audiences the first sale does not matter compared to creating a returning and referring clientele. Accordingly, she has built loyal clients and audiences worldwide.

About Elinor

Elinor Stutz, CEO of Smooth Sale, delivers inspirational keynotes at conferences.

She authored three books: The International Best-Selling book, “Nice Girls DO Get the Sale: Relationship Building That Gets Results”, and community service led to the writing of her second best-selling book, “HIRED!” Her third book, The Wish: A 360 Business Development Process to Fuel Sales, provides readers with a comprehensive plan for building a worldwide audience.

Kred.com proclaimed Stutz as a Top 1% Influencer. CEO World Magazine named Stutz as one of “The brightest sales minds to follow on Twitter”. Bizzhum and NowISeeIt both named the Smooth Sale Blog as one of the “Top 100 Most Innovative Sales Bloggers.” Stutz consults and speaks worldwide.

"I was so impressed with you while I was talking with you at the CBEA conference when I purchased your books and CD's. Your unique way of paying attention to me really made me feel valued. I felt a sense of honor and dignity was given to me throughout the transaction. Although it was just a brief moment, I felt I have encountered a breath of crisp fresh air in a wonderful Autumn morning in that conference room.”

I was recently in the market for a new VoIP telephone system so I contacted Joanne Weiland since I know she is well connected.

She not only gave me several recommendations with their complete contact information but also pre-qualified each of the candidates and assured me they could meet our specifications. We have since purchased the new system and are very pleased with the service and support from the vendor she connected us with. Thank you!

“Imagine who you could be, what you could do—if only you could get out of your own way.”

—staci b

I started my professional life as a journalist, but eternally curious, my background now includes careers as a: • Writer

• Author

• Public Speaker

• Entrepreneur

• Actor

• Improv Performer

• Advertising Executive

• Life Coach

• Teacher

• Tour Guide

Throughout all of these experiences, the one common thread was the desire to know who I really am. To achieve that goal, I had to identify how I was standing in my own way and discover how to remove the perceptions and beliefs that prevented me from reaching my full potential.

On this journey, I've worked with a broad web of clients—from major corporations like Dow Chemical and Kraft General Foods to successful small businesses and non-profits.

My client list ranges from CEOs to ex-offenders, hippies to Evangelicals, high school students to senior citizens. I've appeared in local and national media, debating and educating on a variety of issues and see clearly how these varied experiences allow me to foster a connection with everyone I meet.

Getting out of your own way is the only way to discover your full potential. Let me show you how!
