Gregg Fraley is an experienced public
speaker who has been delivering well-received keynotes and workshops for over 15
years. His topics center around creativity and innovation and he blends in
advanced knowledge of marketing, communications, human relationships,
entrepreneurship, and new product development. While he doesn't label
himself as a motivational speaker, audiences often say he is inspirational.
Gregg's topics are ideal to begin
conferences or meetings because there is virtually no industry or group that
does not need more creativity and innovation. His messages of deferral of
judgment, openness to ideas, bringing fun into problem solving, and his ideation
techniques (fundamental and advanced) are the perfect set-up for the start of a
meeting. Customers have commented that meetings after his speeches have
had an improved and more positive tone, saying participants spontaneously used
his techniques in subsequent discussions.
Gregg believes the best keynote is a
series of stories that illustrate important points, and he believes that every
talk, no matter how serious the subject matter, should be entertaining, fun, and
as interactive as possible. His background as a television
announcer, stand-up comedian, trained improviser, and corporate executive allow
him to deliver impactful, memorable speeches that not only motivate in the
moment but provide tools audiences can use for the rest of their lives.
Customers have commented that Gregg has "an excellent balance of knowledge and
wit." As a published illustrator and former fashion photographer audiences
are presented with visuals that are colorful and engage the visual senses.
Because Gregg is a working innovation practitioner even seasoned business
audiences learn something new that they can use.
Gregg tailors every keynote to the
audience. Typically, for non-business audiences he focuses more on
creativity and self-expression, for business audiences it's about problem
solving, ideation, and innovation.
Gregg will combine a talk with a book
signing afterwards, and Jack's Notebook is available at discounted rates for
bulk purchases. He is a professional member of the National Speakers
Association in the USA.
Comments:
"Gregg provides more useful ideas
in two hours than most university professors deliver in a semester."
"He kept everybody involved,
writing and joking."
"Energy, practical information,
great slides...Gregg's insights are breakthrough."
"Having taught public speaking and
trained all those teaching the course at the University of Connecticut for 13
years, believe me, I am quite a critic. And you, Gregg Fraley, are the
best professional speaker I've heard in forever. The graphics, the mic use, the
mastery of the body, the content, the delivery...BRAVO!"
