The LEAP standard every entrepreneur needs now | Floyd Tavares | TEDxNerul
In this talk, Floyd Tavares introduces The LEAP Movement — a bold new standard of doing business and becoming your best self.
LEAP stands for:
L — Love what you do
E — Be Energetic (because energy attracts)
A — Take Action, even before you’re ready
P — Produce your best self & share it with the world
In a world obsessed with logos and followers, Floyd reminds us that a brand isn’t your logo — it’s your standards. Your brand is the level you play at, the energy you bring, and the consistency you hold yourself to.
LEAP is not just a mindset — it’s a standard.
And in the end, success isn’t what you make; it’s who you become in the process — a ‘brand-new’ you.
This talk will help you:
• Build a brand that grows from the inside out
• Lead with energy, alignment, and authenticity
• Turn passion into purpose, and purpose into performance
• Redefine success — not as doing more, but becoming more
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, creator, or leader, this talk will inspire you to LEAP into your next level — in business and in life.
