Dr. Dale Henry returns to the RE/MAX of Michigan Regional Conference as a crowd favorite. Dale grew up in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains, an area that is bountiful in two things—hospitality and story-telling. He has been a teacher, principal, dean of the oldest college in Tennessee, a businessman, author, and a speaker and trainer. Dale has been in customer service over half his life, and his story-telling ability propelled him as a teacher. This, combined with his customer service and unique ability to captivate audiences, has sky-rocketed Dale in his speaking career. Since he began speaking, corporate, government, and educational agencies call on Dale regularly to have him train their professionals. His client list is a virtual who’s who of the top business and agencies in the nation. Dale is a master teacher in every aspect of the term, and he is what motivational speakers aspire to become. In keeping with Dale's book title, The Proverbial Cracker Jack: How to Get Out of the Box and Become the Prize, Dale is definitely the prize!

 

Dale will present "If Business is Down, Up Yours!" on Saturday from 9:30 - 11:30 a.m. in the Pantlind Ballroom. 

 

The stock market is fluctuating and things are looking bad. The last economist you heard said that there will be a down-turn in buying and selling. A guy in the Walmart line said things are awful and getting worse. Now let’s stop for a minute and evaluate what we know. Analysts always see doom and gloom – that makes it easier to justify their jobs. Economists have predicted twelve of the last two recessions. I’m not even going to discuss the line at the supermarket… Isn’t that where the National Enquirer is displayed? You should be celebrating! While everyone is distracted, you have a chance to excel. Success is a lot more than money. It’s about laughter, joy, fun, life, and relationships. This hilarious session will enable you to invest in yourself and your self-worth through proven effectiveness techniques.
