Your destination is success -- it all starts with you! 

Michael's presentations surround the many facets of life that young leaders will have to face on their journey to success.  All keynotes are prepared for a 45 minute time-slot (can be adjusted to 30 - 90 minutes, upon request).


Keynote/Workshop Descriptions:
*special focuses can be addressed in the keynote/workshop, upon request*

Leadership: "Are you ready?"

**The Shampoo Life Directions** --> Wake up. Do my job. Eat. Sleep. Repeat.  The normal rhythm of life allows us to get away from what's important.  It is easy to dismiss being a leader by just getting by, but this is not the best way to live.  This presentation addresses what leadership is all about -- influencing, motivating, molding, modeling, learning, and succeeding.  Challenging the "norm" is what leadership is all about, not taking "no" for an answer, and always reaching ALL of your dreams.  This keynote will help its audience tap into their potential to reach success!

Positioned for Success: "It's not what you know..."

You've likely heard the saying, "it's not what you know, it's who you know!"  To reach the many goals you have set for yourself, it is important to know how to promote yourself to get there.  You are the greatest product you own!  This keynote will explore different ways to market yourself in the real world, when interviewing, working, in education and in many other areas.  Positioning yourself to succeed and knowing how to market yourself as the ultimate product can put you in the best position in the world -- the one you want! (designed for more experienced groups of youth leaders)

Relationships: "Until (___________) do us part!"

A dynamic presentation exploring youth relationships.  Friendships, dating, family, and community relationships are some of the fundamental bonds most youth deal with.  How do you “do it right?!”  Michael will explore different strategies and theories of relationships and how they are formed and how they work best to support both individuals, or groups, in the relationship.  Taking a step back to look at "what's really going on" can sometimes be the best remedy to all situations, especially relationships.  We will try to make you do just that!

Goals: "Get M.A.D. -- Motivation | Aspiration | Dedication"

One of the fundamental facets of leadership is goal setting!  As leaders in our lives we have to analyze our potential and set goals accordingly to measure and motivate us for success.  Throughout this empowering presentation attendees will be challenged to look deep within themselves, find out a little more about who they are, and set goals that challenge them, but that can be reached by getting M.A.D.!

Teamwork: "There's no I in T-E-A-M"

Teamwork is one of the most necessary elements of success.  Learning how you function in a team will help you be more productive in that environment and ultimately lead any team you are a part of to ultimate success.  Teamwork is based on a mindset of sharing, cooperating, and trusting.  Creating accountability, learning to understand how you work, and trusting the synergy will lead your team to win the gold!
