What people say after the room empties
“The road to success isn’t linear. It requires vision, structure, and the flexibility to adapt. Igor’s work equips you with the tools to navigate that journey and inspires you to think bigger, act smarter, and move forward with purpose.”
Kevin HarringtonOriginal Shark on Shark Tank, entrepreneur, and inventor of the infomercial“Igor came to speak to our EO forum about his journey and embracing failure, then we played his game — an immersive experience of the real world: buying property, starting a business, taking out loans. He's inspirational, high-energy, and the game is very different to anything out there. I highly recommend working with him.”Linh Podetti, Founder & CEO, Outsourcing Angel · EO Sydney
“Igor is a person who has lived nine lifetimes. I would highly recommend anyone have him come and speak, or play his game with them. It is absolutely a 10 out of 10 experience.”Alex Roslaniec, Co-founder, Heybud Skincare · EO Melbourne

Deal With It™ for Leaders
How exceptional leaders make progress inevitable
Most leaders are still leading reactively — responding to disruption instead of engineering progress. Igor gives leaders a repeatable operating system for clarity under uncertainty, drawn from running companies through crashes, betrayals and rebuilds.
Best for: Leadership offsites, executive summits, association conferences
Explore keynoteDeal With It™ for Sales
Making this quarter's number predictable
Top performers aren't just talented — they're systemised. Igor shows sales teams how to control inputs, reframe rejection, and turn buyer resistance into trust, so results stop depending on charisma and start depending on process.
Best for: Sales kickoffs, revenue team meetings, dealer and distributor conferences
Explore keynoteDeal With It™ for Entrepreneurs
Ideas start the game. Execution keeps you in it.
Twenty-plus companies. Most of them failed. Igor walks founders through the execution engine that survived the failures — how to keep momentum through cash-flow squeezes and pivots, attract the right allies, and turn setbacks into accelerators.
Best for: EO and YPO chapters, founder communities, incubators, university entrepreneurship programs
Explore keynoteDeal With It™ for Franchise
You bought the franchise to de-risk success. This is how you make it inevitable.
A franchise takes the guesswork out of the model — not out of the owner. The playbook doesn't decide what to do when cash gets tight, a key hire quits, or the second unit opens slower than the first; the franchisee does. Igor puts franchisors and franchisees through the Deal With It™ framework and the Entrepreneurpoly™ simulation, so owners discover how they really decide under pressure before it costs them a unit — and franchisors build a network that executes the system instead of just owning it.
Best for: Franchise conventions, franchisee onboarding and annual meetings, franchisor leadership summits, multi-unit operator programs
