 As a professional speaker, he is a meeting planner's delight. Dave can teach a class on the subject of sales techniques, or address the fundamentals of team development and of high performing teams. However, his ability is not only in the "classroom." For the same event, he can keynote, emcee, or can entertain an audience by sharing stories of the NFL. It is evident that Dave likes people. He creates a warm atmosphere in which the attendees can enjoy learning. Many of his presentations include audience participation.

 Another subject he addresses is "saying no is more than words..." The speech is entitled "The Challenge of Life," The subject is appropriate for student conclaves, sport banquets, business meetings, and conventions.

 If you are planning an event and need a speaker who can show the way to goal setting and sales techniques, call to schedule Dave Casper. If the subject is the role of leadership, plan to have Dave Casper as the speaker. If the issue is the prevention of substance abuse - children or adults, call for Dave Casper. For groups related to the insurance industry - he is a "must have" speaker.
