Keynotes
Brooks Mendell gives 40 minute programs that are best scheduled as keynotes or following a meal. These include:
- Communicating Your Message for the Best Results - A powerful message with specific strategies for sharing facts and information with colleagues, clients and community groups.
- How to Write a Thank You Note - A humorous talk even your mother would love. It's about building relationships in a competitive work environment and, yes, the lost art of writing thank you notes. This presentation works well for general session and after-dinner presentations.
