At the 2011 anti-money laundering and anti-fraud conference in Antigua I
was able to hear a fantastic talk brilliantly delivered by Charlie Adams.
Charlie spoke with emphasis, vehemence, yet with a lot of emotion about
the importance of humor, attitude and optimism. His broad experience as a
professional communicator transpired in every one of his phrases and
sentences. He left us all thinking, feeling, reflecting about our gifts
and the need to constantly stoke our internal fire, if we want to succeed
and transcend. Charlie raised the bar, and set the tone for the rest of
the conference!

Charlie Adams was the MC and keynote speaker for Rieth-Riley's company
conference in 2011. Charlie brings real-life experience and enthusiasm to
his
presentations. He engages his audience in such a manner that instinctively
that drives home his topic. Charlie's use of humor is a quality that
leaves his audience both educated and entertained. I would highly
recommend Charlie as a corporate speaker!

Charlie's
<a href="programs.html">
"Stoke the Fire Within"
</a>
keynote is tailored to your particular event. His highly popular
<a href="programs.html">
"How to Build a Positive Attitude and KEEP the Darn Thing"
</a>
is often utilized as a Breakout following the "Stoke" experience. Drawing from his experiences of raising six children with his E.R. Nurse Nancy, audiences connect with his hilarious and practical tips on how to stay positive all of the .... well, most of the time!

In recent years, Charlie has been excited to add the powerful
<a href="programs.html">
"College Recruiting Simplified"
</a>
presentation to the Stoke arsenal of motivation. The new book "Athletes Wanted" reports that more than ever, companies are specifically looking to hire college student-athletes with high GPA's because of the fire they bring to their culture. In this powerful presentation, Charlie opens the eyes of families to how they can help their youngster take their passion for a sport, and turn it into a way to pay for College AND put themselves in position to have their resume go to the top of the pile when it comes job-search time!
