John Hagerman has a wide range of business experience, but it all fits together around one common theme – energizing people to fulfill their highest potential.  All of his work, whether as a speaker, writer, manager, business owner, coach, non-profit activist, or Realtor^®, has focused on helping those around him unleash Natural Energy to better serve their clients, customers, constituents, and themselves. 

Coined in the book Top Performer, a Bold Approach to Sales and Service, by Stephen Lundin PhD and Carr Hagerman, the term “Natural Energy” refers perhaps the most powerful force in the business world.  It is the energy released in every creative and authentic human interaction.  It’s what every entrepreneurial venture was started with and what every multi-national corporation was built on. 

As a speaker, John’s passion for, and knowledge about, Natural Energy is immediately evident.   The stories he tells, observations he makes, and lessons he teaches, all reflect the deep understanding of Natural Energy, and how to unleash it in others, he’s developed over his 30 years in business.  His work helping the authors of Top Performer flesh out their unique philosophy of sales and service in the creation of supporting materials, has crystallized his ability to speak about Natural Energy in ways that can help others discover its power and use it to build their businesses, and themselves.

John’s philosophy of “energizing the highest potential” of those around him informs all of his writing.  If he’s writing a personal brochure, he tells his client’s story in ways that motivates customers to call them and lays the ground work for a long-term relationship filled with energy and possibility.  When he writes a property marketing piece, he does so with an eye toward energizing a home buyer’s dreams about the life they want to live in that home.  When he writes to raise money for a non-profit organization, he does it in a way that lifts the donors, connects them with the beneficiaries of their donations, and releases the Natural Energy that builds a future of support and new possibilities of hope.

Years of experience as a business manager and owner taught John the value of raising up his employees and helping them learn how to reach beyond what they thought possible.  He coached and mentored them in how to build connections with customers and how to release the Natural Energy of those relationships.  His employees benefited by increasing their customer relationship skills, and his customers benefited by discovering sales people who were authentic in their desire to make sure they got the solution that served them best…and who were skilled at giving the customer a great experience in the process.

The theme of unleashing Natural Energy to help people fulfill their highest potential continues in John’s work today.  Read his writing, hear him speak, or talk to him personally, and you’ll discover someone with an uncommon commitment to making the world a better place, and a talent for helping everyone discover their own sustainable, and renewable sources of Natural Energy – perhaps the most powerful force in the world!
