A.K.A. Keith McGough The good guy is back! We are on the edge of the next century! People all over the world are realizing the potential psychological and symbolic opportunity to think about where we are, were we would like to go individually, corporately or as a unified group-a seldom-found opportunity to instill hope, optimism and unity. President Roosevelt (TR) was a pioneer of change, Colonel of the Rough Riders, he brought Americans into the 20th Century -- an American hero whose voice still lives. TR today is believable, likeable and persuasive ... a change agent. We now stand on the threshold of a new century. We need a leader -- a hero who has the real stuff -- timeless core values of courage, vision, persistence and duty. TR's words are a blast of bracing fresh air -- he warms and fires people with unsuspected zeal, passion and unified purpose. He arouses people, gives needed vision and energizes them to break new ground. With TR's burning energy, we are set on fire - as he is larger than life, we too, grow. In great leaders, we read our hope and it summons the best we can be, which helps us change. By authentically portraying President Theodore Roosevelt, the presentation or surprise guest appearance secures immediate attention, generates excitement and soon creates an emotional bond with people. It inspires and moves people from ideas to action -- TR leaves a motivational message imprint which remains. TR works closely with organizations to create customized events that boost morale and get people engaged in team spirit. Let TR be your spokesperson or messenger. For some organizations TR becomes a representative, a spokesperson on site or at external events where TR appears in character to reinforce your product or service message. This works great at trade shows or conventions where he is a greeter, mixing and mingling with propects and customers to make them feel special and create a spirit of excellence throughout your event.
President Roosevelt will warm and inspire you with unsuspected zeal, passion and unified purpose. His reinvigortated spirit will lift your audience, rekindle deeply felt, but seldom used, turn-of-the-century American core virtues: Courage ... to change - to face change positively - to - "find" needed personal strength and resiliency to carry your own weight, take steps you haven't taken before (courage is essential for you members if they are to be contributors. They will find courage that dares to fight valiantly against the foes of complacency) Vision ... or as TR called it, farsightedness. "Make no small plans ... They have no power to stir our souls ... Make big plans ... Aim high in thought and deed." (Clear, simple vision and ownership are essential to direct, align and inspire action). Persistence ... "it is far better in life to strive for mighty deeds, win glorious triumphs, although checkered with failure, than to join the ranks of those poor, timid souls who live in the gray twilight of never achieving much, never risking or failing much, not knowing the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat." (Kick-start short term goals). Responsibility ... "For those given much, much is expected in return. You are rightly asked to perform your duty to your fellow man ... and yourself." (Turns "neutrals" into supporters, reluctant supporters into active helpers)
