Walter Bond
A former NBA player, Mr. Accountability forces his audience to be responsible for whatever situation they are in for the win
Walter Bond is called “Mr. Accountability” because as a leadership and motivational speaker he forces each of his listeners to learn to be responsible for whatever situation they are in. Through his programs, workshops, and books he teaches that personal accountability, confidence, and success are possible for all who desire it. Walter will captivate your audience through his unique and memorable personal stories, teaching them the lessons learned from his experience in selling, as an entrepreneur, and being an NBA team player. He helps his audience see how they can transform challenges into opportunities, obstacles into testimonies, and that success is a matter of personal choice. In 2013, Walter became the host on the Food Network’s Giving You the Business – a new reality show featuring exceptional employees who vie for the chance to win their own food franchise.
No One Can Stop You But You
Accountability Keynote 1
Does your organization have a culture of accountability? When something goes wrong, does everyone start pointing fingers and making excuses? How much more productive would your organization be if everyone took responsibility for their mistakes and shortcomings and continuous improvement was a team effort? Walter Bond delivers a solid message of personal accountability, overcoming adversity, power of confidence and pursuit of excellence to the highest degree. Your organization will be rocked with enthusiasm, inspired to work as a team and motivated to achieve to the highest level regardless of the stock market, mortgage crisis or credit crunch. This extraordinarily popular program helps audience members to point the finger at themselves in a fun and safe way.

They’ll return to their careers with the motivation and skills to take responsibility for their own continuous improvement.

Leaders: Get Out of The Way!
Leadership: Live Workshop or Tele-seminar
Think about it for a moment—have you ever met a person that enjoys being bossed around? The most common form of leadership is micro-management—which is destructive, expensive and an organizational buzz kill. Most leaders micro-manage because they have never been sufficiently trained on “how to lead.” In this program, Walter tells how to turn the destructive dangers of micro-management around with the fundamentals of leadership. Leaders learn how to empower employees to own and be accountable for what they do. As a result, employees feel engaged, inspired and motivated, and leaders go on to create and grow a culture of accountability that builds retention and productivity for years to come—which is nothing but good news for your bottom line!
Sell It Like You Mean It!
Sales: Live Workshop or Tele-seminar
Whether you’re looking to get your sales team’s year off to a fast start, give it a mid-year jolt, or fire it up to finish the year with momentum, this program is full of principles that will empower your sales professionals to be re-energized with passion, desire and commitment regardless of their success levels. You might have a team of high producers that have flat-lined or maybe your whole team needs to crank it up. Either way, you need your sales force to outthink and outperform the competition and win big in the sales game. Mr. Accountability believes that some salespeople are born but most of them are made. So Walter teaches every member of your team how to overcome objections, incorporate storytelling, and establish him or herself as an expert. As a result, they stop selling and start influencing your customers.
Dominate Right Where You Are
Employee Engagement: Live Workshop or Tele-seminar
Do your employees enthusiastically pursue the pinnacle of excellence? More likely they’re just looking to reach the next level—just chasing their next promotion. Let Walter prove that the key to getting ahead lies in their current situation. He explains, “If you dominate right now, right where you are, your superiority will become so obvious that new opportunities and promotions will chase you!” Inspired by Mr. Accountability, every attendee will find new ways to own and pursue excellence in what they do. As a result, employees return to work truly engaged and motivated to attain higher levels of productivity.
“Walter Bond was one of the most engaging, energetic and motivational speakers we’ve ever welcomed to our stage. Not only did he exceed the promises he made to excite and entertain, but he delivered real time best practices that motivated our 300+ audience of financial advisors to go out and serve more families.
We have welcomed talented keynote speakers to The Dwyer Group Annual Reunion for more than three decades. But, Walter Bond was our first-ever back to back repeat performance. Earning the highest ratings from our associates, franchisees, master licensees and all in attendance from across the country and around the world. Walter is so good at motivating that we all wanted a second helping!?
Wow, what a tremendous message for our time. I have never seen, in such a short period, so many key points covered with one grand conclusion. Thank you for your wonderful message, the world class delivery and for being a part of Denny’s DFA Convention. I look forward to getting into the book as early as my next plane ride.”
