Keynote Addresses

Home / Keynote Addresses

It’s a proven fact that inspired teams and leaders achieve outstanding results. Our 60-90 minute keynotes are characterized by humor, vignettes, and energy that will inspire your entire team to action.

Having led teams ranging in size from 20 to over 20,000, Major General (retired) Robert Mixon has more than four decades of practical leadership experience, from which he’s learned and developed the “Big 6”™ Leadership Principles:

The Big 6 Leadership Principles are:

Set the Azimuth – Decide on the direction of your organization, and the path you plan to take.

Listen – Effective listening is a prerequisite to establishing a high-performing culture defined by empowerment and initiative.

Trust and Empower – Team members in a high-performing business want to be challenged, trusted, and treated with dignity and respect.

Do the Right Thing When No One is Looking – It is essential that everybody is focused on doing the right thing the right way — rather than choosing an easier or faster shortcut.

When in Charge, Take Charge – Great leaders, and by extension, great teams, have a “bias for action.” A good leader confronts the facts head-on.

Balance the Personal and Professional – Productivity isn’t necessarily determined by the number of hours you work, but rather what you do with your time.

To audiences of virtually any size, Robert brings a unique combination of military and high-level corporate leadership experience to the practical level – with lessons learned that any leader will identify with.

As a two-time recipient of the Teaching Excellence Award from the Cox School at Southern Methodist University (2016 and 2017), as well as being a member of the Speakers Bureau of both Vistage International and Leading Authorities, General Mixon has inspired audiences around the country – and he’s ready to raise the bar in your organization.

Prepare your team to embark on a pathway to grow your culture to a new level of excellence from the author of the 2017 Amazon #1 “Hot New Releases” book, We’re All In, The Journey to a World-Class Culture. Robert will energize your organization to grow leaders who ‘get it’, who will learn what it takes to develop and implement an outcomes-based strategic planning process, and who become focused on building committed, high-performing teams.

Here’s a sample of what others have said after experiencing a Level Five keynote address:

If you want to begin the journey of achieving leadership excellence, start here….
I wish my entire team could have been here today…..
 I would definitely recommend today’s session to my friends and colleagues; it was motivational and very enlightening….I learned a lot.
Your Level Five Program is a unique blend of military and corporate acquired knowledge and experience.
It gave me clarity on what kind of leader I want to aspire to be.

Testimonials

Jeff Nix, Assistant General Manager – Detroit Pistons

The Level Five event was a great learning experience with real world applications. I believe in learning from those individuals who have lived through and can expertly share their life lessons. I highly recommend Robert Mixon and Level Five Associates.

Marv Stein, CEO (Retired) – Stein Food Company

Experience is a prerequisite to progress! Nearly nine years ago I experienced progress as a friend of MG Robert Mixon. He led me to join the volunteer corps at Ft Carson, Co. His guidance and leadership led me to become a Good Neighbor at the Fort. Additionally, his abilities created a friendship for the post
