Overcoming Adversity: Motivational Speaker Rulon Gardner

Motivational speaker Rulon Gardner is an expert on overcoming adversity–he grew up the youngest of nine children on a dairy farm, struggled with a learning disability throughout his education, defeated the greatest wrestler of all time in the Sydney Olympics, survived a snowmobile accident and exposure to the elements, came back from an amputated toe due to that accident to win Bronze in Athens and recently survived a plane crash into Lake Powell. It’s no wonder our customers, like Rhonda Hale of Breakthrough in Wichita, KS, think his message is so important–

“The event went AMAZING. Everyone had so much fun and we had a great turnout! Thank you for helping me set everything up….We just appreciated him so much! I hope he knows how much he touched our organization and our community. Thank you again.”

Why You Should Hire Motivational Speakers (even when the economy isn’t doing so well)

Listen, the economy isn’t doing very well right now. I understand. I see the doom and gloom on the news every night, just like you do. You’re probably having a hard time rationalizing why you should spend the money on a top motivational speaker right now–fair enough. We’re all cutting back.

But here’s the thing–at times like these, when the economy isn’t doing well, when your employees are worried about hitting sales targets, these are the times you NEED a motivational speaker. You need someone who can fire up your team, who can inspire with tales of how they overcame adversity. This investment now will pay big dividends for your company’s financial well-being, as well as for your employee’s morale.
