Hélio Vogas comes across as ‘just another guy’ or ‘that guy next door’. He is anything but!

Over the years, Hélio Vogas, a businessman, martial arts expert, and extreme sports enthusiast, has attended numerous conferences and motivational talks. Yet he felt that something was missing. In fact, Hélio Vogas realised that, in many cases, audiences left the auditorium without any clear idea of how to implement what they had just learned. He aimed to change that.

Instead of standing behind a podium and lecturing his audiences, using PowerPoint slides to get his point across, Hélio Vogas uses people in his audiences to demonstrate his message. This he does by means of dynamic activities and constant interaction, with him very often leaving the stage and walking amongst his audience members. What is more, the advice he gives is actionable, and can easily be implemented by all. Do not be surprised if he uses his experience gained from his business life, martial arts, and extreme competitive sports to give his audience business insights. Sword demonstrations and fire displays are par for the course and get the adrenaline pumping.

But Hélio Vogas is not only a showman, he is a ‘tell-man’ as well, using science-backed and business-proven tips and strategies, and his background in accelerated learning to give his audiences a motivational talk that leaves them with the tools needed to become more effective – in a way they will never forget.

Besides running his business and addressing audiences from across the globe, Hélio Vogas is the author of the well-received ‘Cracking the Discipline Code: A Step-by-Step Guide to create Habits That Stick’.

• SAFE DANGER – Everyone knows that in order to stay competitive in today’s world, organisations need to be bold and take risks. At the same time, most leaders are afraid of taking such risks because they think the consequences of that not working out may far outweigh the benefits they might get if that works out. But taking risks doesn’t need to be dangerous. Using skydiving, glasswalking, sword juggling, among other “dangerous” stunts, Hélio will give your audience insights that will inspire them to be bolder, and take bigger risks while making sure they minimize any collateral damage in case their plans don’t quite work out as planned.
