Over time I have been selective in my repertoire and by osmosis identified a range of popular songs with insights to match. "You'd better not read this or you might get too near a climax of reality." To be said in a Scottish accent, about this key note speaker who gives you a taste of his logic, just after he compares the ambiguity of "Blowing in the wind" to three necessary leadership strategies. There's a market for him because there's people out there without a heart and there's people out there with a heart. That's not entirely true, more true is there's a lot people who keep their heart a secret and sometimes, it becomes a secret from themselves. I've been entertaining with popular song lyrics for 30+ years. I'm passionate about the importance of hi-lighting the wisdom easily glossed over because of a good tune, that which gave birth to the great tune. “He speaks in a distinctive Scottish accent. With a friendly, bubbly personality that lights up the room.” Baltimore Jewish Times JOIN ME FOR A DEEP DIVE INTO STUNNING LEADERSHIP AND RELATED SELF IMPROVEMENT IDEAS FOUND IN FAMOUS (and not so famous) songs. Self praise is no praise, but to make a keynote speech includes inspiring people, and in that, my life's work has something perhaps to say as I have been making such expositions all the years (see videos). I will make an account on these insights as well as performing a little at the piano to best demonstrate how they are understood. And I hand out rhythm instruments as we have the odd sing along.
