Workshop

The workshop format

Every keynote also runs as a 90 min or half-day workshop. Same argument, less stage, more of the room working on its own business.

How it runs

Four blocks, in order

  1. The keynote, compressed

    The first 30 minutes are the keynote’s argument with the stories cut to the bone. The room gets the frame and the one decision it leads to.

  2. Applied to the room’s own businesses

    Each attendee works on their own company, not a case study. In the Pre-Sold Buyer workshop that means mapping one buyer question through a useful asset, a next step matched to readiness and a consumption signal to watch. In the AI workshop it means designing one agent-supported role with its purpose, KPI, human owner and management rhythm.

  3. Peer pressure, used well

    Small groups compare answers and trade the one thing they would steal from each other. Masterminds and peer groups rate this part highest.

  4. A Monday action, written down

    Everyone leaves with one dated action and the number they will check. The half-day adds a second round where the room pressure-tests those actions.

Workshop 03

The Pre-Sold Buyer

More content doesn’t mean more customers.

Workshop 04

The Growth Trap

When growth stalls, most founders add another tactic, hire another person, or work even harder.

Runs as: the Cracking the Code of Predictable Profits workshop.

Proposed extension: Develop a first-priority assessment with the suspected constraint, supporting evidence, unknowns, owner and review criteria.

Option 05

Custom-Designed Workshop for Your Audience

Built around your room’s context, priorities and next moves.

Some rooms need a sharper focus than a standing keynote. Charles Gaudet will custom-design and create a workshop for your audience: grounded in their context, aimed at the priorities that matter in that room, and built for practical application during the session.

The workshop stays bounded to what Charles creates for that audience. Format and length are set with the organizer for the event. The outcome is a room that leaves with clearer thinking and usable next steps on the problem the session was built to address.

How it runs

  1. Clarify the audience context and the priority the room needs to work.
  2. Frame the problem in language that fits how those attendees actually operate.
  3. Teach the relevant mechanism or diagnostic Charles will apply to that priority.
  4. Guide practical application so attendees leave with something they can use.
  5. Close on the next move that fits their roles and constraints.

What attendees leave with

  • A session shaped for their audience, not a generic talk with a new title.
  • Shared language for the priority the workshop was designed to address.
  • Practical next steps they can take after the room ends.

What event organizers say

“We brought Charlie and his team in to present on predictable profits, and where so many presentations sacrifice details for engagement, Charlie managed to offer a working session that was both deeply engaging and rooted in real-world application and next steps. All of our members walked away with clear action items and, maybe most importantly, confidence that there was a path forward to reach their goals. Highly recommend working with Charlie and his team if you feel stuck in your business.”

Mary Finch, EO Washington DC

“Charles delivered a fantastic session that was engaging, well-structured, and tailored perfectly to our Lifestyle Investor community. Our members especially loved the workshop-style approach, which made the content immediately actionable. It was a clear value-add across the board, and we would definitely welcome him back anytime.”

Phoebe Mroczek, Director of Marketing, Lifestyle Investor
