Keys to Success as a Global Speaker
Featuring Mike Podolinsky, CSP, GSF

The NSA-Minnesota Chapter Board of Directors invites Platinum Platform Professionals* to a special gathering!

Former Minnesota resident Mike Podolinksy will be in town to share lessons from a 40-year career as a global speaker now residing in Singapore. A founding member of NSA-Minnesota, Mike is the only two-time president of the Chapter, having served in 1984-85 and 2000-01. He was the first recipient of the Chapter Member of the Year Award and also received the Mark LeBlanc Award.

During this interactive program focused on experienced speakers, Mike will share insights from his vast global speaking experience:

• How to present local with words, phrases, culture, images, and stories
• How to work crowds from experience in 37 different countries
• What works well in (almost) every country
• What to AVOID like the plague
• Working with translators

In addition, Mike will share ideas from one of his signature talks, Opening with Pizzazz and Closing with Punch.
