Dealing with Difficulties

This presentation is generic in tone in order to custom-fit to the needs of the organization. I will collaborate with you to determine the pain points of your group to create a presentation that meets precisely your needs. This presentation can be adjusted for the time and timing of the keynote (morning will be lighter and more energetic to set the tone of the event; as a final keynote, it will hold more gravitas while still engaging and fun). Each keynote is encouraging and motivational.
