How well does your staff represent your brand and mission when you are not there? Does your organization provide the tools to develop leaders at all levels? What would your organization look like if your staff was able to accomplish these improvements? How much could you expect your revenue, productivity, and engagement/retention to grow? Our attendees loved Bob and his message! One attendee said it best: “Totally engaging - loved his entire presentation!” Additionally, he is incredibly easy to work with, timely, and very professional – a meeting planner’s dream! I would highly recommend Bob to not only other ASBOs across the country, but any organization that is looking for an engaging and thought-provoking keynote speaker.

By focusing on the Power of Hospitality to deliver the Black Tie Experience. The Black Tie Experience program is based on my twenty + years of delivering a “Hospitality Experience.” My teams and I created over 7,000 events and only had one opportunity to deliver a wow experience and a lasting impression. Everything we do in business revolves around making (and maintaining) a personal connection with others. That is Hospitality, and it is needed more than ever before today with our workplace culture, our leadership development, and creating loyal customers (and employees) who become our Brand Ambassadors for our business or organizations. My Keynotes and seminars are customized to meet your needs and speak your language. WHAT OTHERS SAY: “Bob’s presentation on “The Black Tie Experience” started our day off with humor and generated a buzz that lasted long after he left.
