Keynote speaker

What better way to demonstrate the impact of stories than to have a master storyteller make the case for this game changing tool?  I entertain my audiences with stories that speak to the challenge they face: getting deep and sustained engagement from the people they are dependent on for their success.  I lay out the simple architecture of a story for business, and I provide the storyteller’s rules of the road.

I love customizing my speeches for audiences based on company, industry, career-point and challenges du jour.

Videos of my speaking end up in the proprietary possession of my clients.  Here’s an excerpt from C-Span that’s in the public domain.  It’s a story I told an audience of New Hampshire politicos when I accepted a posthumous award for my journalist father.  Note how I link a family story to my message for these committed pols: like them, my dad had an unwavering faith in the political process.
