“I see your lips moving but all I hear is blah, blah, blah!” This phrase is emblazoned on the t-shirts and book covers of dozens of students of all ages and uttered by dozens of employees under their breath everyday. Too many leaders, teachers and speakers have abandoned the need to remain relevant, many more have lost the authority they attempt to wield because they no longer take responsibility for the well being of their teams. Students and employees both perform better when they know they are appreciated, cared for and their needs are understood. Leaders can increase their influence and impact by adopting and applying the LEARN TO ROAR Leadership Philosophy (TM). ABOUT J LOREN NORRIS As a sales and marketing professional with more than twenty years experience. I spent ten years in a single Fortune 50 company working my way from Telephone Sales to Regional Marketing Communications Manager. I bring a strong history of building lasting relationships in a diverse cultural environment. Selling advertising tools to small and medium sized businesses gave me great exposure to the specific needs of several types of industry. As a leadership trainer and coach, my clients vary from Public Schools (students and teachers) to state and national level PTA and government leaders abroad. My passionate focus in the areas of leadership, psychology, attitude and advance communication skills consistently challenge me to better understand and adapt to the learning and communication difference of people from all walks of life.
