Rick is not only professional, but also he is a ton of fun. I have hired him as a keynote, emcee, and education session speaker. He adds something a bit unique from the old "sage on the stage." He is constantly striving to update his message, keep it fresh and keep it relevant to his core.

The energy Rick brings is much needed after years of burnout in public health.

Your goals. Your vision.
How I partner with you to achieve them and create an awesome experience!
My promise – I will inspire and engage your audience, be the simplest speaker to work with, and make you look good!
Step 1
Initial Conversation
Let’s chat! I’ll learn more about your goals, event, and audience and see if I’m the perfect fit. And, if I’m not, I have a HUGE network of amazing speakers I can refer who can get the job done.
Step 2
Agreement
If we decide to work together, I’ll put together a contract (or use yours,) hold the dates and begin development, and email you all the tools you need in the fewest emails possible. We’ll keep contracts simple, conversation open, and stay in touch as things develop.
And - I’ll create a quick marketing video to promote your event!
Step 3
Custom Touches
We’ll have another planning meeting a few weeks in advance of the event to go over the logistics and timing, all the additional speakers/topics/programming to make sure I tie those concepts in and/or don’t duplicate efforts.
And, as things evolve, you are free to email/text/call at any point so that we can adapt to any changes necessary.
Step 4
The Big Show
I’ll show up the day before my presentation , work with you and the production crew to make sure everything is in order to provide a great experience, and troubleshoot well in advance of taking the stage.
Step 5
The Encore
I’ll provide your attendees with additional resources to keep the learning going and the conversations alive after the event and back on the job. I’ll follow up with you to gather feedback, see what additional opportunities we have to continue to embed the message further in your organization and make sure you are 100% satisfied with the outcome.
