Speaking Programs
Marilyn has three different dynamic programs to choose from. She can do a motivational keynote, then add value to your convention by conducting an educational breakout session. She can also customize a half day training session for continuing educational credits. You can choose one, two, or all three of the following programs:
1) WHO MOVED MY COMFORT ZONE?
In the past, people needed to have tools to stretch their comfort zone in order to achieve more results. Today, people are having their comfort zone changed for them! They are forced to change and if you resist, you will fail. This program will help people navigate change with the right mindset for success.
2) WHY SETTLE FOR THE BALCONY? HOW TO GET A FRONT-ROW SEAT IN LIFE!
Life is short - live in the front-row! This dynamic keynote inspires people to get out of the balcony of their life and go for that front-row seat! This program will help people to get off the sidelines and out of the balcony of their life. With so many things out of control these days, attendees will be reminded that their attitude and perception are 100% within their control. With the right mindset, any seat can be a front-row seat!

I have been attended a variety of Marilyn Sherman’s presentations over the last several years. She is always refreshing and motivating! She does a great job of customizing her presentation to the audience and provides real life examples to make her points. She has made a concerted effort to become a food service fanatic herself! Marilyn doesn’t just present; she gets her audiences up and moving and very much involved in the learning process. I always look forward to participating in her workshops and the follow-up sessions that she offers. Her books and CDs are wonderful reminders of her message and are done in true Marilyn Sherman style. Not only is Marilyn a great speaker, she’s a fantastic person to be around and she truly walks what she talks!
