How to start a business - Post Covid 19

As a serial entrepreneur for the past 25 years, I know what it takes to setup a business correctly, get the word out with guerilla marketing and begin to process payments and see the fruit of your idea come to life. I can help you and your group do the same.

Confidence in Leadership

Leaders don't need to know everything to lead. Leaders are visionaries that have a plan which others are willing to support. The plan does not need to stay the same, but the leader does need to project the same leadership for his or her followers. What does it take to become a leader, to lead easily and to delegate when necessary? How do you lead in a world where so much information is available to anyone with access to the internet?

Leaders Don't Point Fingers

Leadership is what we need to move forward. If you are a leader looking for the tools for successful leadership then this presentation is to build your team, build you confidence, build your vision and build your future. Plan, Do, Review, Grow, Repeat, the Marine Corps way

Failure Isn't Final: How to overcome failure

We all have failed at something or with someone. Some failures don't carry any weight such as missing a bus, or losing a dollar bill, while other failures are life altering. How do you change your mindset about your failures? This speech will take you through my own failures and give you hope for yours. Your group will love this speech and its inspiration.

Activated Dirt: What Does God Really Want for You?

When you look at a building, how do you know there was a builder? When you look at a painting, how do you know there was a painter? When you look at creation, do you really believe there is a creator? God is real. Nothing just happens and even when we meet someone new, a little piece of them rubs off on us. What type of dirt are you? What is your life plan? Explore what I call, Activate Dirt and why we all need each other.

Luxury Customer Service: The Customer Experience

When you have a business or you own your part of a business and you must interact with the customer, there comes a special type of luxury customer service which only the right mindset can provide. What must you think? What must you do? What must you get your customer to expect? And, how do you lead?
