Lincoln Presentations
"Lincoln as Role Model" is designed for the average audience and will show how this man, in so many ways completely un-presidential, achieved a victory of breath-taking proportions utilizing strategies that you and I - equally un- presidential - can emulate.
"What Made Lincoln Unique?" designed for an academic community, is a lecture on what was constant in this man who once said "My policy is to have no policy."
"Lead Like Lincoln" demonstrates how Lincoln's leadership style, which forged a 19th century victory when victory was anything but certain, can be emulated by the harassed 21st century business and professional community
'Lincoln and Ethics,' with MCLE credit, is designed for the legal community and offers Lincoln's distinctive strategies for navigating ethical shoals with pin-point accuracy, Zen-like serenity and a child's sense of humor.
'The Wit and Wisdom of Abraham Lincoln' is designed for any audience, and shows that, when a man is as comfortable in his own skin as Lincoln was, there is always a touch of humor to his wisdom, a touch of wisdom to his humor.
All five presentations are accompanied by 'Lincoln 365,' a calendar-based, thought-provoking series of 365 quotes by or stories about Lincoln, as well as a quote from, say, Socrates, Mother Teresa, Bernard Shaw, Mark Twain, etc. The niche audience for this book includes not only those fascinated by Lincoln but also those sick to death of being labeled 'Tea Party,' 'Democrat,' 'Conservative,' etc. - and then required to hate everyone else with a different label.

Life Skills Presentations
"Life Skills in Prison: Strategies to Make Freedom Happen" is designed for professionals who deal with convicted felons - teachers, parole agents, judges, attorneys, prison counselors, prison administrators - and highlights the centrality of a what's-in-my-best-long-term-interests life skills mindset and its resulting power to morph a convicted felon into a productive citizen.
'Why Stay in School?' is based on primary research with convicted felons and covers their answers to such questions as ''What value did you place on school when you were a teen?' and 'Does dropping out of school have anything to do with a person being arrested?' 'What is the worst thing about being in prison?' and 'How hard is it to stay out of prison when you get out?' The talk is designed to tell kids the rules of the game before they decide they're going to play - if you drop out of school you'll drop into prison, doing a life sentence on the installment plan.
"Life Skills: How to Fire Up 'Hardened' Kids," is designed for K-12 teachers, school counselors, CPS workers, truant officers, and attaches responsibility to the child's primal urge for freedom, particularly the child who seems otherwise prison-bound, empowering the child to achieve beyond his - or our - expectations!
