Scott Burrows, Corporate Keynote Speaker on Vision

Having a Shared Corporate Vision: More Than a Feel-Good Expression   My keynote speeches for corporations on the value and importance of having a shared company vision stress that a collective vision is more than a “feel-good” expression; it is a philosophy of corporate wellness.

Scott Burrows, Resilience Speaker

Sometimes Resilience Means Standing Firm As a motivational speaker on resilience and grit, I have learned that most people confuse resilient with flexible. They are different words with different meanings.

Now, More Than Ever, Associations Must Engage Members   In my role as an association keynote speaker, I know that now, more than ever, associations must re-engage their members.
