Personal Details

Bio

Anthony Poponi is a corporate trainer, dynamic speaker and author specializing in transforming team dynamics. His presentations, workshops and retreats target groups needing to unlock the untapped potential of their team by deepening trust, improving communication and developing leadership.

“You don’t need to be a powerful speaker to be a powerful communicator. You don’t need to be a supervisor to be a leader.”

His customizable content dives deep into research on the human psyche, interpersonal dynamics and trust, to foster deeper relationships through authentic conversations and individualized leadership.

His approach called “Focus on the 40” weaves together content from the fields of neuroscience, positive psychology, and leadership and he delivers with an authenticity and a comedic touch few others possess. If you’re in search of a moderator or emcee with a energetic onstage persona your audience will rave about look no further.

Topics include: Transforming Team Communication, Sustained Happiness, Self-Lead Leadership.

His past clients and audiences include federal, state and local government, transit professionals, tv and radio broadcast, human resources, education/youth empowerment, and the nonprofit sector.

Anthony has always been funny. His exploration into happiness started with laughter and is now is a multi-faceted talk or workshop for teams or individuals wanting more from their everyday life. Happiness is simple, happiness is complex and happiness is available to each of us through a deeper understanding of neuroplasticity, gratitude, community, communication and flow.

The Many Facets of Happiness: The Power of Laughter

My talks and workshops provide a fast-paced fun and funny whirlwind tour of your brain in formats from as short as 45 minutes to a half-day! Find out why you’re stressed, excited, disappointed, afraid and most importantly what makes you HAPPY and why!

Understand that inner caveperson and give you tools and simple tasks to access the happy chemicals your brain produces. Bring more gratitude, pride, bonding, positivity and LAUGHTER into your life. We’ll give you tools to create habits – “Habits of a Happy Brain!” It’s so easy even a caveman can do it!

Workshops (1)
Instantly Connect with Anyone…..Rapport!
2 hours
(View workshop agenda)

Have you ever met someone who connects immediately with almost anyone they meet? There’s an underlying skill to establishing rapport and it’s either natural or practiced – and maybe both. Some do this naturally and it’s something the rest of us can develop…and quickly.
