Scott Burrows, Texas Motivational Resilience Speaker

Hang Tough: Texas Can Do, What Texas Has Always Done…IF   As a motivational resilience speaker who loves the people of Texas, what I have always admired about Texas is its attitude.

Scott Burrows, Resilience & Grit Speaker

Resilience and Grit, A Physical Impossibility?   It’s a funny comparison, resilience and grit, but as a resilience and grit keynote speaker, I know that what seems opposite are connected. When we think of “resilience,” we think of a strand of cooked spaghetti, a rubber band, stretch-band or something that bends every which way in […]

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, Goal Setting and Success Speaker

“Dealing with It,” Isn’t a Game Plan   In a recent virtual presentation I gave on goal setting and success for 2021, I commented that “Dealing with It” isn’t a game plan. Goal setting and success require determination. Times may be uncertain but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t set goals. Who will win in 2021? […]

Small Business in America: It’s Gut-Check Time   Being a small business resilience speaker and having my own business, I relate on a personal level to one of the tragedies of the COVID-19 pandemic: how it impacted small business across America.

Scott Burrows, Pharmaceutical Sales Keynote Speaker

“Looking Around” is Not the Same Thing as Having Vision   In my role as a keynote speaker on pharmaceutical sales and change management, I am often surprised by the answers I receive when I ask a group of sales reps, “What is your vision?”  The answer I most frequently hear is “I am looking […]
