Meet

Monte Holm

His early years were marked with deep financial and emotional challenges; losing his dad at age 14, running away from home at 16, the struggle to find work in the construction industry. But when he discovered the financial industry while in college and began helping others build their financial independence, that's when his own fortunes turned around.

Little more than a decade later, Holm had become a successful industry leader and went on to become a Co-Founder of a world class international financial services organization with tens of thousands of independent associates throughout the United States and Canada. He shares his passion and secrets for effective planning and preparation, focused self-development, precise management of time and his strategies for building a successful life and business.

Monte was awarded an Honorary Doctorate Degree from Utah Tech University where he and his wife were named to their Hall of Fame.

He has served on corporate boards, as a trustee for charitable organizations, including co-founder and board member of a regional bank, reinsurance companies, and years with the U.S. Army Command & General Staff College Foundation.

Monte authored the book, “Expect to Win” and is asked regularly, along with Lisa, to speak at universities, business events, conventions, seminaries and charities.

He and Lisa currently live in the St. George, Utah.

EXPECT TO WIN

– DON'T LEAVE YOUR LIFE AND FUTURE TO CHANCE –

Unfortunately, most people, in life and in business, approach new endeavors expecting to fail but hoping to surprise themselves and win. Well, listen up! Success comes as no surprise to those who succeed. These people win because they plan to succeed and prepare themselves to succeed in everything they do.

Monte Holm is one of those success stories, and he shares his Strategy for Reverse Engineering Your Life to help you unlock your potential and achieve your dreams and goals. You can implement the same strategy, concepts and techniques that Monte used to transform himself from humble beginnings as a farmer's son into the global entrepreneur and business leader he is today.

Monte Holm is an inspiring, visionary leader who knows that it takes both smart planning and hard work to accomplish your personal and professional goals. Expect to Win demonstrates the need to firmly set your aims and objectives and then reverses engineer the steps necessary to get you there. His Success Pipeline analogy is a helpful tool to assist you in managing the process required to reach your objectives of happiness, peace of mind, and prosperity.

Expect to Win is captivating! Thanks Monte, for sharing your simple, down-to-earth approach for determining what you want in life and how you can attain it. I found myself asking, “What might I have accomplished had I put these life stretching principles to work long ago?” Although I now find myself in life’s senior bracket, I realize it’s not too late to change and reverse engineer my life from this point forward. I am excited to share this powerful message with my children and employees to give them the insight to fix the gaps in their lives and be more comfortable in their own skin.
