Don frequently travels around the country giving talks to
corporations, professional organizations, government and civic
groups. Engaging audiences with his relaxed approach, Don extracts
and presents key examples of leadership from history, business,
government, and sports. He inspires his listeners with the actions
of successful Americans. Don will motivate you as he describes the
obstacles that confronted them and the selfless, internal goals
these leaders sought to achieve.
Always flexible, Don can craft a home-style talk on leadership that
targets the specific interests of your audience. The example talk in
these videos was given at the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library in
early 2009. Whether your group is focused on history, business,
government, or sports, he will extract and deliver related stories
that bring “leadership to life”.
