KEYNOTE TOPIC? Becoming a Shift Thinker… 

image002ABOUT OUR SPEAKER: KEVIN SNYDER: Dr. Kevin Snyder is a “recovering motivational speaker” who has presented leadership training programs and keynotes to over 1,000,000 people across 1,150 audiences in all 50 states and around the world. Kevin’s clients include JetBlue, Anheuser-Busch, FedEx, Orkin, CAT, TIAA, Bank of America, SHRM, the United States Airforce, hundreds of various associations, and over 500 colleges and universities. He’s also the author of several books with a best-seller titled “Think Differently to Achieve Success.” Kevin’s inspiring and thought-provoking presentations inspire audiences to THINK DIFFERENTLY, DREAM BIG and TAKE MASSIVE ACTION to lead at any level and produce game changing results in desired areas of their life, both personally and professionally. IEA participants will be equipped with innovative, forward-thinking ideas to raise the bar, achieve new levels of success and love the journey along the way. Prior to becoming a professional speaker and writing books, Kevin worked in Higher Education at several institutions, most recently serving as Dean of Students for High Point University. His doctorate degree and research focused on student retention and success factors for first-generation college students. Kevin has also sailed around the world, presented a TEDx talk, and will even be attempting a Guinness World Record in 2020 for the longest speech in history … but don’t worry, it’s a speech he will NOT be giving to us! Kevin’s “claim to fame” though is that he lived his childhood dream of meeting Bob Barker and winning BIG on the television game show, The Price is Right!
