Colleges and UniversitiesFollow Your Passion, Pursue Your Dreams

“My college experience may have been different than yours. When I graduated from high school I got rejected by every college I applied to. My academic class ranking was 358 out of 368 students. At the age of 24, I was kicked out of my house by my abusive dad. I lived in a small room in a boarding house, and supported myself by cleaning bathrooms at a local hotel. But in just ten years, I went from mopping floors to becoming an Ivy League graduate and CEO of a major medical center. Today, I want to talk to you about the 10 lessons I learned in life that may be applicable to you.”

Business and CommerceThe Truth about Leadership and Mental Health in the Workplace: A CEO’s Perspective

“High-powered individuals generally do not like to admit to being vulnerable. Depression, unfortunately, is often viewed as a personal weakness or even a character flaw. As a chief executive you are responsible for creating a healthy workplace environment. Given the statistics, it is a safe bet that someone in your organization suffers from depression. Depression and mental illness in the workplace affects productivity, and the costs are higher than you might think. There are four tips from my experience for managing stress, anxiety and depression in the workplace and five tips for executives who want to keep workplaces healthy for employees while also improving the bottom line.”

Social Impact Organizations and FoundationsBeyond Strategic Planning: Energize Your Board and Leadership to Achieve Your Vision

“What impresses me the most about the people who work and volunteer in the nonprofit sector is their passion to make a difference in the lives of others. Their commitment to their respective mission inspires me. What concerns me, however, is the amount of time and energy organizations spend, without really achieving the results and successes they seek and deserve. Today, I will identify the key steps to go beyond the traditional strategic planning process to achieve long-term success and sustainability.”

We recently hosted Dennis C. Miller, author of Moppin Floors to CEO, to speak at an event as part of a month-long celebration of Mental Health Awareness. Dennis inspired us all as he spoke about his early life struggles with abuse and depression and how he transformed his life from hopelessness and failure to happiness and success.”
