Speaking

I am an introvert and I would prefer to stay in the library with my nose in a book. However, I am working to change the world - starting with myself. That is one reason my noble goal is " To use my voice to encourage the balancing of accountability with compassion so that integrity floods the globe." -- it compels me to stand up and speak.

Since forming Six Seconds in 1997, I have spoken about emotional intelligence all over the world (Mexico, Canada, Japan, England, Netherlands, Venezuela, etc). Presentations include:
