KEYNOTE PRESENTATIONS

While I wouldn’t trade the one-on-one relationships I build with my athletes for anything, I also enjoy reaching larger audiences through my keynote presentations. (I guess it’s the former actor in me!) So if you’re looking for an entertaining and educational presentation for your company or nonprofit organization, I hope you’ll consider me. Please take a look at the following keynote topics and let me know if you have any questions – or if you’re interested in booking me for an upcoming event.

CHASING WINDMILLS

In 2004, I celebrated turning 40 years old by running 40 full marathons during the calendar year. “Chasing Windmills” chronicles that incredible experience for audience members. Based on the imagery of Cervantes’ classic novel Don Quixote, the presentation encourages audience members to discover their own windmills in life and then chase them – even if everyone else calls them crazy for doing so.

Marathon Leadership®

This presentation focuses on The 26.2 Lessons for Modern Leaders, beginning with the most important: “Leadership is a marathon – management is a series of sprints.” Designed for both corporate and community leaders, “Marathon Leadership®” examines the similarities between training for and completing a marathon and becoming better leaders. By incorporating humor, real-life examples, and the most recent research on leadership and management, “Marathon Leadership®” will motivate and educate audience members who want to improve their leadership skills.

MARATHON LIVING

“Marathon Living” transforms The 26.2 Lessons for Modern Leaders into life lessons for runners and non-runners alike. (Think of it as “Everything I Needed to Know about Living I Learned by Running a Marathon.”) Appropriate for both community and corporate settings, “Marathon Living” challenges audience members to “live a life that’s truly worth living – because the greatest sin is the unlived life.”
