Most leaders don’t have a time problem — they have an indecision problem. In this 40-minute keynote, we dismantle the myth that productivity comes from doing more and expose the real burnout culprit: re-deciding, re-explaining, and leaving decisions emotionally open.
You’ll learn how the Indecision Tax quietly drains time, confidence, and authority — through endless meetings, stalled offers, and policies no one enforces. We’ll break down why high-performing leaders struggle to decide, even when they’re smart, capable, and experienced — and how consensus, perfection, and fear of consequences keep them stuck.
At the core is the Decide Once Framework, a decisive leadership model that helps you categorize decisions, stop being the bottleneck, and close loops cleanly. The result? Faster execution, fewer meetings, stronger teams, and more personal energy.
Because the most productive leaders don’t do more.
They decide cleaner.
After the Decision: How to Execute Without Burning Yourself Out
You made the call. You set the plan. Now what?
Execution isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing smart. In this session, Amanda shows leaders how to move forward with clarity and confidence, without exhausting themselves or their teams. You’ll learn how to:
-
Turn decisions into actionable steps that actually get done
-
Protect your energy while keeping momentum
-
Stop spinning in “busy” and start creating results that matter
This is for leaders ready to stop overworking and start executing like a CEO who actually enjoys the process.
No More Half-Assing It: How to Finish the Year Like You Mean It
Most entrepreneurs say they want to finish the year strong—but scrambling, second-guessing, and “busywork” is what usually shows up instead. In this unapologetically direct session, business strategist Amanda Furgiuele shows you how to cut through the noise, stop spinning your wheels, and make smart, strategic moves that actually move the needle. You’ll walk away with a simple, actionable framework to prioritize what matters, make bold decisions without hesitation, and create measurable momentum so you can finish 2025 strong and step into 2026 with clarity, confidence, and unstoppable forward motion.
