ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
MY SINCERE appreciation and admiration to Patricia Fripp, my partner in The Odd Couple® and one of the finest speakers in the entire world. I’ve learned a great deal from her in terms of speaking skills and not nearly enough in terms of humility.
I’m grateful to another wonderful speaker and humorist, Lou Heckler, who unselfishly recommended me to a speakers’ bureau early in my career. I was hired without hesitation, and also without much keynote experience, based solely on Lou’s endorsement.
My thanks also to the old (really old) gang at Kepner-Tregoe in Princeton, where I learned how to be a stand-up trainer as well, I hope, as a stand-up guy.
