SPEAKING
Sean’s interactive keynotes deliver for a range of audiences:
Leadership and Management
Inspire your people to grow and succeed by encouraging them to take risks, and learn from their falls. And to tell those stories as part of their leadership voice.
Healthcare
Healing is more than just repairing an injury or curing an illness. It is about having the empathy and encouragement to help the person, not just the patient.
Non-profits
Inspire non profit leadership to tell the stories of impact about their mission and the impact of their work.
Higher Education
To prepare for the job market, undergrads, grad students and MBA’s need to articulate who they are not just what they know. Stories about their challenges, set backs and what they learned, set them apart from the pile of resumes employers are managing.
Sean is committed to helping others and transforming lives in a positive way.

The Healing Power of Presence in Health Care

Addressing and audience of 400 leaders from business and government, Sean delivered a 90 minute address on Fall Risk, specifically tailored to the conference theme of The PURPOSEFUL LEADER, someone who embodies wisdom, conviction, responsibility, commitment, openness & belief in others. We discussed the similarities between healing and leading and Sean challenged the group to consider the question, “As leaders do you encourage your people to take risks from which they learn and grow, or is your approach to mitigate risk?”

Presentation to returning veterans on storytelling and resilience
Sean participated in multiple events with this non-profit group whose mission is “Teaching Veterans and those who serve to tell their story”. Their belief is that as a returning veteran if you own your personal narrative, you can control your life. Sean told my Fall Risk story, with particular emphasis on what can be learned from our traumas. He then coached individual veterans in telling their personal stories as a way to reconnect with family and community. https://www.thehomefrontfoundation.org/
