COACH DON MEYER'S LEADERSHIP TOUR TO STOP IN ORLANDO ON SEPTEMBER 7

For those of you that know and follow my blog, you can only imagine how excited I am to hear my friend and mentor Coach Don Meyer speak here in Orlando on September 7.  Coach Greg Brown, now at UCF and formerly a member of Coach Meyer's staff has orchestrated one of Coach's stops to bere in Florida.  And could there be a more perfect topic?!  If you are in the area, there is no way I'd miss out on this one!

Coach Meyer is currently the winningest coach in any division in NCAA history. In February 2010 Meyer announced his retirement from coaching, but continues at NSU in the role of Regents Distinguished Professor and Assistant to the President.

Following a serious car accident and inoperable cancer diagnosis Meyer has received national recognition in various national media outlets - Sports Illustrated, ESPN, FOX Sports, National Public Radio, Associated Press, CBS News just to name a few. In July he was named the winner of the Jimmy V. Perseverance award at the ESPN ESPY's - Meyer used his national spotlight to again promote the community he calls home - Northern State University and Aberdeen, SD.

The seminar takes the wit, wisdom, and winning ways of Coach Don Meyer and brings it to business leaders, community members, and other participants. The first half of the seminar focuses on what it takes to be a servant leader and the second half describes the processes necessary to build a team of servant leaders.

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING ABOUT COACH MEYER'S LEADERSHIP TOUR:

“Outstanding! Coach Meyer is captivating not just because of his fantastic content, but also because he is transparent and willing to reveal his mistakes. The information given is simply outstanding and can help make a marginal leader into an outstanding leader if willing to put in the time.”

“What I like about this presentation was that everything Coach Meyer said was from his heart–everything was sincere and enjoyable.”

“I appreciate the combination of Coach Meyer’s perspective as well as the perspectives of others (books, quotes, etc.).

“He presented a lot of good questions I need to ask myself and answer in order to become a valuable employee and leader.”
