In his bestselling book Backable, Suneel Gupta explains that the key to success is not talent, connections, or ideas, but the ability to persuade people to take a chance on your potential.

“This book is truly brave. I felt like I was sitting with Suneel as he unveiled secret steps that anyone can take to stand out and achieve their dreams.”

―Reshma Saujani, founder and CEO of Girls Who Code, bestselling author of Brave Not Perfect

MOMENTUM

Accelerate your performance without the burnout

In the face of an exhaustion epidemic, it’s time to rethink how we view high performance. Grit and hustle have their place short-term but over time are scientifically associated with burnout. In this inspiring talk with actionable insights, Suneel helps people build emotional runway to increase performance, innovation, and creativity.

For a group of driven, competitive, analytical, type-A people that is one thing – and for people who are very proud of the service-oriented leadership work they and their organizations perform, it is quite another….Your presentation provided keys to unlock the potential in self-awareness and leadership by example.
