Instant Change - Program Opportunities

Instant Change was born when Peter Strople, CEO and Founder of Zero2 Holdings, realized that in his numerous conversations with top leaders from around the world, most of them had a desire to not only to excel at running their business, but also to answer the question,

“How can I make a difference – today?”

In recent media, the CEO has not been painted positively, yet we know that there are more leaders interested in cultivating ‘good’ than behaving in manners with negative consequences.  We also acknowledge that the life of a leader with great responsibility is not a simple life.  It is riddled with complications, pressure, time and balance challenges, and family concerns.  It is also a life blessed with the opportunity to impact change – instantly. 

This is what we know:
  • Time and needs are finite. Money is infinite.
  • People deal with people they like.
  • Good people need to meet good people.
  • Referral is the best form of reference.
  • You are who you are in relationship with.
  • Most companies are relationally bankrupt.
  • Our boards and investors need to do more to help companies in times of crisis. 
  • Trust is everything.

Instant Change happens when you learn:
  • Who you truly are
  • Who adds value to you 
  • Who minimizes your value
  • Who makes you stronger
  • Who weakens you
  • What is important 
  • What is a waste of time and energy! 

With his powerful Home Plate™ methodology at the core, Peter will teach you how to quickly value the relevance of every person or organization based on your core values. You will learn the steps to creating a Home Plate™ for yourself that will apply to your personal, family, and business life.   Instant Change calls for the leaders who are tuned in to the need to actively participate in changing the trajectory of lives, communities and country – one decision, one action, one change at a time. 

It’s amazing what can be measured in a day.  Will you participate in accelerating the measure of your life?  If so, champion an Instant Change program in your hometown.

  • Power Breakfast (2 hours) - expenses only
  • Instant Change Forum (4 hours)- $10k or $100 per participant plus expenses
  • Instant Change Summit (1 day)- $20K plus expenses
  • Community Roundtable (evening)- $5k plus expenses if outside of  1 day Summit. Included in 1 day Summit.

Power Breakfasts
The 2-hour Power Breakfasts are by invitation only and consist of a group of 5-10 leaders of business and community who convene to discuss the question “How can I make a difference - today – in my life, with my family and employees, in my community and in my country?”  These individuals are often stakeholders, sponsors or champions of the Instant Change Forum or Summit, and will reside and work in the area/community in which the breakfast takes place. 

Power Breakfasts are hosted by sponsors for invitees.
