In this easily customizable presentation, event planners are given the opportunity to select which of these topics will be included in the presentation, according to their group’s needs and time constraints (see Possible Formats, below).

To further solidify the powerful concepts above, I briefly address the contrast of “How to Fail: Proven Strategies for Successful Failure.” I then conclude by sharing “The Success System that Never Fails” to inspire each participant to immediately begin leveraging these success strategies. I also provide information regarding additional resources, and finish with a strong and compelling call to action for each participant to internalize and apply these crucial strategies in their lives and leadership.

Topic Authority 

• I have been an inspirational leader for more than forty years, and am the founder of four successful companies. I spent fifteen years as the CEO of an organization that my team built from the ground up, taking it from a hope and a dream to become a thriving business. With another organization, named by Fortune Magazine five years in a row as one of “America’s Best 100 Companies to Work For,” I spent nearly fifteen years as the lead executive responsible for National Education and Networking Strategies. My area of responsibility experienced five straight years as number one in the company in both customer and employee satisfaction.
• I am a lifelong learner – my education did not stop when I received my Master’s degree. Over the course of my life I have read and studied thousands of books and articles, attended hundreds of leading seminars, and listened to countless presentations by world-class leaders and achievers. From these excellent sources I have compiled some of the very best, most effective strategies for greater success, which I share in this presentation.
• I am privileged to have served as a professor on the faculty of four universities, and I am a firm believer in the incredible ROI of sharing with and learning from others.
• I have written and published the books Presidential Leadership (2013), Be An Inspirational Leader (2017), and Be An Inspirational Leader Workbook (2024), as well as hundreds of articles focused on Greater Success and Leadership Excellence.
