Darren LaCroix

2001 World Champion of Public Speaking

will provide a rare opportunity to coach a few lucky volunteers on Friday evening! After Darren’s informative presentation, he will provide volunteers with an opportunity to deliver a short presentation and receive instant feedback from the champ! Even if you aren’t a volunteer speaker Friday evening, you’ll learn just as much by watching Darren’s coaching in action. Whether you’re sitting or standing, as long as you’re there, you’ll learn!!!

“Got Humor?” Don’t miss your chance to see the World Champion in action Saturday morning. Darren will let you in on the “secrets” of the comedy world. You’ll discover that you, too, can make people laugh. Darren will lead us through the unfolding of how humor works, and offer tips for shortening your learning curve dramatically. Learn how creating your own humor will “lighten up” your presentations. You are “Darrenteed” to walk away enlightened and entertained.
