Overview
Imagine if everybody you encountered was as naturally engaging as Fred the Postman! That’s what motivational speaker Mark Sanborn thought when he first met this peppy postman – what if more people were like Fred?
Thus, The Fred Factor was born, a four-step process inspired by Fred himself that has helped hundreds in transforming their lives and themselves from ordinary to extraordinary!
These four basic principles teach the reader that by making a real difference each day, building strong relationships, creating value for others, and reinventing yourself without fear, you too can become a “Fred” – a person who goes the extra mile, who sees constant opportunities to make a difference in the world around them, and who genuinely loves what they do!
Many organizations and nonprofits purchase The Fred Factor to distribute to team members, cultivating a community of “Freds” who are ready and willing to do their best every single day.
