DNA of High-Impact Leaders

How Visionary Leaders Build Trust, Shape Culture, and Ignite Excellence

Paycheck leaders will only ever produce paycheck employees.


The type of leader you are determines whether you will inspire ownership… or apathy. Whether you’re an emerging leader, leading a team of 2, or a CEO with 2000 employees, one truth remains: the culture around you starts with the excellence within you. This inspiring and interactive keynote defines the character that people follow, the type of culture that inspires excellence and loyalty, and the legacy that helps you close the gap between where you currently are and who you're called to be as a leader. This program isn’t just about motivation—it’s about activation.


Built around her COMMIT Framework, this keynote gives leaders practical tools to elevate how you lead, show up, and multiply impact across your organization.


The COMMIT Model for Leadership:

Clarity:  A leader's character is contagious. Learn how to model trust, respect & ownership.


Obsess:  Become the best leader possible by developing the 6 Power Skills every modern leader needs.


Manage:  When it comes to your culture, learn how to turn your core values into consistent, modeled behavior.


Make: Discover success habits and instill them within your team.


Inner Circle: Next-level leadership requires collaborative, inspiring & innovative thinkers.


Transform & Thrive: Learn how to build a pipeline of future leaders, so the mission and legacy don't stop with you.

DNA of High Achievers:

Think, Behave, and Execute Like the Top 1%.

Most people chase success...high-achievers engineer it.


What separates the top 1% from everyone else? In this unforgettable and high-impact experience, Betsy Allen-Manning shares the breakthrough habits and performance strategies she’s learned from interviewing elite performers—from champion UFC fighters to 8-figure entrepreneurs to leaders breaking glass ceilings.


You'll discover the COMMIT framework—six strategic behaviors that separate those who get by… from those who stand out, level up, and go ALL IN. Whether you're chasing a promotion, your next high-level milestone, or your most courageous version of you, this keynote delivers the clarity, strategy, and execution plan to help you close the gap between where you are and who you're called to be. This program isn’t just about motivation—it’s about activation.


The COMMIT Method™

  • Clarify Goals: Define your purpose, priorities & plan.
  • Obtain New Skills: The skills that got you to your current level won't get you to your next.
  • Master Your Time: Own your agenda like your legacy depends on it.
  • Make Success Habits: Your habits either contribute to or contaminate your life.
  • Build a Strong Inner Circle: Your inner circle is either growing you or slowing you.
  • Develop Tenacity: Life will always throw curveballs; you just need to learn how to hit them.

“We recently hired Betsy Allen-Manning for a virtual event for our association and she was outstanding! She was exceedingly engaging, polished, and had solid takeaways that our attendees could implement right away. She moved effortlessly between personal stories, polls, chat, breakouts, and memorable acronyms, which commanded my attendees’ attention the entire session. On top of her incredibly engaging content, the production value of her presentation was excellent, far exceeding any other virtual presenter I have worked with this year. I highly recommend working with Betsy! She's one of the best virtual keynote speakers we've worked with!”
