Signature Keynote - How To Find YOur Polar BEar

Mark Agnew, motivational keynote speaker, and his teammates kayaked the entire Northwest Passage

How To Find Your Polar Bear

The Ownership Mindset empowers your staff to take accountability. No longer will they be begging their managers, and wasting their time, with problems they can solve themselves: 


  • Ownership of problems, so they do not rely on their managers to find solutions
  • Ownership of motivations, so they find purpose and internal drive without relying on the continual promise of rewards, promotions and bonuses
  • Ownership of emotions, so they can thrive, even through stress, adversity and uncertainty, without burnout
  • Leaders can excite their teams with intrinsic, process led goals
  • Teams can build bonds, camaraderie and collaboration by taking ownership of their relationships
  • JEST - Journey, Experience, Shared Mission and Toughness - will make you happier, hardier and success will follow as an inevitable byproduct


Excite your organisation with stories of polar bears, ice bergs, near-death experiences and hilarious mishaps, as Mark takes you through the Artic's Northwest Passage to find your inner polar bear. This is the tale of how Mark took ownership of his goals, problems, motivations and emotions, to go from failed adventurer to European Adventurer of the Year. 


With The Ownership Mindset, your staff will thrive as others merely survive.
