Inaugural Address, Martin Luther King’s I Had a Dream speech, and Lou Gehrig’s Farwell to Baseball before he could vote. In a business career spanning 40 years, from bagging groceries to the executive suite, Dan has attended - and delivered - several hundred presentations and speeches. Throughout his odyssey, Dan has attended many proprietary executive speech programs.
