Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker
One million+ people globally while at Disney Institute.
What happens when the worst speaker meets the worst audience? An opportunity arises that only the speaker gets a second chance.
The audience? Well, they missed an opportunity to learn from an expert at a world-renowned organization. Bitterness and excuses directed at the wrong person is always a sign of inexperience.

Have to share this funny bit from Kelly Swanson, a LinkedIn connection and kindred motivational speaker:
“Don’t you love it (insert sarcasm here) when you get “invited” to speak for free and told what an honor it is that they chose you. I’m going to try that approach with my plumber Frank.
Dear Frank, This letter is to congratulate you and inform you that you have been unanimously selected to come over and fix my leak. We really respect your work and are pleased to offer you this opportunity to be our guest. We’re sure you’ll appreciate the exposure. Please let me know what date you are available at your earliest convenience so we can get you on our calendar.”
Thank you Kelly for reminding midlife entrepreneurs to stay focused.
