How to Reach Diamond in 12 Months | CEO Stewart Hughes Leadership Masterclass | Americas Convention

Stewart Hughes, Unicity Chairman and CEO, is introduced and expresses gratitude to the corporate staff. He highlights that this event marks the beginning of Unicity's significant launch in North America, with a goal to make a global impact on health solutions. He acknowledges the achievements of newly recognized leaders in North America, including executive and presidential directors, sapphires, rubies, and diamonds.

Hughes introduces the 80/20 rule and extends it to an '80/20 maximalist' approach, suggesting that 1% of efforts yield over 50% of results. He emphasizes that this '1%' activity is often uncomfortable, high-friction work, involving rejection and pushback. He encourages developing the 'cardio fitness' to consistently engage in this challenging 1% work, stressing that it's about being an active player, not a spectator.

The second principle is to lean into individuality, as everyone is unique. Hughes warns against trying to emulate others, as it leads to fatigue and a lack of authenticity. He then discusses 'symphonic productivity,' where individuals, while being themselves, work in harmony with others. He provides examples of successful Unicity members like Dr. Kenny Haras, Myra, Christian and Karen, Denise, and Amarie, each demonstrating unique strengths and dedication, contributing to the collective success. He emphasizes that the 'magic' comes from engaging with each other's differences in harmony.

Hughes states that while skills are important, desire is paramount. He explains that success in this business requires only three core skills: inviting, presenting, and committing, which can be taught if there's desire. He then delves into 'geometric duplication,' using the analogy of chess and the doubling of pennies on a chessboard to illustrate how one penny can become 92 quadrillion dollars. He outlines a strategy where each person sponsors one new frontline person each month and teaches them to do the same, leading to approximately 4,100 people in an organization and diamond-level income within 12 months.

The key to geometric duplication is becoming a teacher, not just a salesperson. He explains that the goal is to teach people how to teach others. This approach enables a significant impact on global issues, as no single individual can achieve it alone. He concludes by posing a challenge for the next 14 months, urging attendees to consider their goals, who they will bring with them, and what rank they will achieve. He reminds them that by focusing on others and eliminating the 'me monster,' they will overcome their fears and achieve greater success.
