We all face obstacles on the job and in our daily lives.

In this quick-paced, eye-opening keynote, George Tinsley Sr. gives practical, down-to-earth strategies that will help you and those within your organization turn obstacles into opportunities.
SPEAKER

Tinsley’s tales of successes in business and sports doesn’t merely point to the starting line; it provides an evolving map to guide each person on the road to success!
