You set the bar for all future keynotes! I am still getting positive feedback from the event and your participation.
We were all enthralled with your stories, Bob! I am so glad that it proved a meaningful experience for you as well. Thank you for taking the time to share with us at the WSTC convention!!
I love to visit for hours around a campfire, tucked into a tent during a storm, or in someone’s home anywhere in the world. From friends and family to Sherpas and Siberians, the stories roll about what we have seen, what we have done, and what it all might mean.
I bring the same joy to presentations. With spectacular slides to illuminate the message, my style is relaxed, connected, and full of warmth. Let’s talk about what you want your event to accomplish and plan for a presentation that entertains, enlightens, and greatly exceeds your expectations.
