Business Humorist Todd Hunt

Biography
As an executive with Ogilvy & Mather, one of the world’s largest advertising agencies, Todd learned the inner workings of communication. Additional positions with an insurance administrator, financial services marketer and national retailer confirmed what he had suspected all along – we all mess up communicating. Ten years after forming his own marketing company he discovered that people were eager to hear his funny, true stories about sales, customer service, leadership and change, which he gathered during his business career. Now a professional speaker, he works with people at organizations across the country to improve communication and success.

Todd’s lessons wrapped in laughter have inspired meeting professionals at the MPI World Education Congress and 15 chapter events, including St. Louis EduCon, Tampa Bay Meetings Academy, Georgia Meetings Exploration Conference and Southern California Trade Show…plus other organizations from CPAs and auto dealers to nurses and funeral directors (really).

Program Description:

What’s your biggest challenge every day? Communication probably tops the list, because everybody messes it up -- and we’re hilarious! Like delegates who ask, “Is the general session for everyone?” “Is the cash bar free?” “If I already sent in my form, am I pre-registered?”

Business humorist Todd Hunt speaks to organizations that want to add fun to their events and send members back to work smiling, with tips to improve communication and success.

WARNING: No PowerPoint will be used! Just Todd talking, with a few props, some interaction (nothing lame, we promise), learning and fun after work.

• Reduce costs and increase efficiency of your meetings.
• Tune in to where your listener is “coming from” and adjust your communication style to get what you need.
• Discover the eight problem words that could cost you business.
