Goals
LantzQuest Performance
Strategies is a uniquely
effective organization utilizing a corporate
university approach to engage and equip
clients to reach their personal and
corporate goals. Each of LantzQuest’s
independent trainer/coaches must be highly
effective and committed. This document
provides background and details for
LantzQuest independent contractors.
Mike Lantz, President and
Founder of LantzQuest Performance Strategies
has excelled in life by not only
implementing what he has learned to find his
own success, but by studying the mastery of
the leaders in the industry. His great
success has led him to share his techniques
with others; thus, founding
LantzQuest Performance Strategies
as a springboard for his life’s work of
perfecting human potential through
motivational seminars, corporate training
and personal and professional coaching.
A renowned motivator and
highly sought-after speaker, Lantz brings
desire and the ability to coach individuals
to massive transformation. His cutting-edge
strategies for success prove that honoring
your true self and building on your unique
talents, anyone can achieve the “perfect
life.” The stated mission of Mike Lantz and
LantzQuest is to motivate individuals to
live lives and create destinies never
thought possible. Mike Lantz founded
LantzQuest over four years ago. He is a
member of the National Speakers Association
and is one of only three coaches in the
State of Indiana to earn the coveted
Professional Certified Coach (PCC)
designation, as awarded by the International
Coach Federation, the governing body of
professional coaches world-wide. Mike is
also a member of Young Entrepreneur's
Organization (YEO).
At LantzQuest, “Our Goal is
Assisting you in Reaching Yours!”
This company mantra encompasses LantzQuest’s
purpose not only to our internal team, but
to our client’s as well. To ensure utmost
client satisfaction, we use our 3-D
Process. LantzQuest’s 3-Ds are translated
into Discover, Deliver and Define.
The Deliver part of our 3-Ds
is where you come in. We use different
training solutions such as
LantzQuest’s “YOUR COMPANY UNIVERSITY®”, or
LantzQuest’s ACADEMY TRAINING to Deliver the
training solutions we
outlined in the Discovery
process. What sets LantzQuest apart from
more traditional training departments? Part
2 of the Delivery process –
Performance Coaching.
LantzQuest’s “YOUR COMPANY UNIVERSITY®”
aligns employee development with
company-wide initiatives. A powerful
corporate-university tailored to the needs
of each client is an ideal strategy for
long-term employee development. Our clients
decide whether monthly training is
implemented for three, six, nine or twelve
months. LantzQuest customizes an interactive
solution that allows our clients to avoid
the high costs of creating a university from
the ground up. Our team of dedicated
facilitators, coaches, instructional
designers and management professional’s
create and deliver the big picture solution.
LantzQuest’s ACADEMY TRAINING
works for our client’s rapid development
needs because an Academy can be a half day,
one day or a two day training solution.
Regardless of the duration of the training
you select, an Academy allows your team to
receive the short-term training your team
requires to remain sharp and focused.
Another unique feature of LantzQuest is the
implementation of performance coaching with
all training topics. Performance Coaching
empowers individuals to set better goals and
then reach those goals. In fact, retention
rates of information learned exponentially
increases when performance coaching is
utilized in conjunction with training
classes.
This dedication to “Assisting our Clients in
Reaching their Goals” requires LantzQuest to
recruit the best talent in the industry that
requires the unique combination and
flexibility to not only facilitate our
unique approach to training but to also have
the talents and willingness to become a
“performance coach” for our clients.
This powerful combination of a
facilitator/coach role aligns staff
development with the company’s goals and
initiatives, promotes buy-in throughout the
organization by emphasizing the utilization
of learning and infuses ownership throughout
the staff with a powerful company-branded
university.

Real-World Business Experience:
While every class follows an established,
outlined curriculum, our contract
facilitators illustrate and enrich the
material with their own expertise. You
should be able to relate the seminar to your
own experiences, as well as those of the
audience. We count on our contract
facilitators to convey their individual
insights and to provide "real-world"
applications for the subject.
Powerful Presentation Skills: Strong
presentation skills are the foundation of
every successful trainer. Combining talent
and technique, you must be able to capture
the attention of an audience, and keep it.
Facilitation Ability: Leading a class
isn't easy. We want to contract with
professionals who are excellent
facilitators. You should know how to reach
and teach the adult learner, and be
comfortable in group training situations.
Flexibility and Independence: You're
"on your own" most of the time -- that means
you must be able to handle a multitude of
situations independently. If you're
adaptable, a problem-solver, remain calm in
crisis situations, enjoy working
independently, and have a "show-must-go-on"
attitude, then you've got what it takes to
succeed as an independent trainer/coach with
LantzQuest Performance Strategies.
Collaborative Communication: Our
internal team pledges to work together with
you to communicate planning and details of
the trainings. We ask you to do the same, by
communicating with us, the “ups and downs”
of training and coaching. You will be given
tools for ongoing and post training
communication. This constant communication
ensures we are providing superior service
and products both internally and externally.
Personality-Plus: As a facilitator,
you'll need to form a special bond with each
audience and have the affable, charismatic
personality to establish a relationship from
the platform. You are LantzQuest in the eyes
of the client.
Edutainment Appeal: Seminar audiences
expect more than just information -- they
expect learning to be entertaining.
Presenting informative material in a fun,
fast-forward style and teach your subject
matter in a captivating, engaging format,
you'll deliver what our audiences expect --
a creative, high-impact, highly-interactive
program that keeps them entertained,
engrossed, and attentive.

Professional Appearance and Credibility:
First impressions are critical. Our contract
facilitators always present a positive
professional image – LantzQuest’s
credibility depends on it.
Love of Learning:
When you contract with us as a facilitator,
the learning has only just begun. To keep on
top of the latest management thinking
requires extensive reading, networking, and
ongoing training.
Training/Coaching-Readiness:
Contracts with LantzQuest clients vary in
length from three months to annual
contracts. The scope of work per client
varies. Some contracts involve the coaching
assignment only, where others require both
the training and the coaching. Coaching
contracts are designed for 2-30 minute
sessions per month, for the length of the
contract. Advance scheduling enables you to
coordinate your training and coaching
calendar with other commitments.
Commitment:
We're committed to your success, and we want
you to be committed to ours
and our clients.
We strive to build mutually beneficial
relationships with our contract
facilitators, and we back that up through
extensive resources, training, networking,
and corporate support. This venture as a
partnership and commitment to each other is
critical.
Self-Coaching:
Your success will depend on your ability to
receive feedback from customers and
LantzQuest Performance Strategies staff
members, as well as your ability to identify
places in your seminar that need improvement
and development, and then make the
appropriate changes. This is crucial to
ensuring your success in both sales and
customer satisfaction. We offer support to
all facilitators, but our most successful
facilitators are experts at self-correcting.
Performance Coaching Experience:
Ideal candidates will possess personal and
or professional coaching skills. Affiliation
with International Coaching Federation,
International Association of Coaching and/or
other professional coaching organizations is
desired. Adherence to the IAC ethical
principles is required. To view these
principles go to

Trainers must provide a certificate of
insurance before clients are assigned.
