Overcoming Your History
“I remember the first time I heard the word “Alcoholic.” I was seven years old and my mom was screaming it at my dad. “The last time I heard the word, I was being escorted back to my hotel room after falling into a pool, while on vacation in the Bahamas. I had been drinking all day and could barely stand. “I think he’s an alcoholic,” I heard someone say. It was my forty-second birthday.”
In “Overcoming Your History” Ralph Peterson shares what it was like growing up in an environment where quitting, over-eating, and abusing drugs and alcohol was the norm. It was an environment that he swore he would never emulate. Fast forward 35 years and Ralph woke up fat, drunk, alone, miserable and worst of all, possessing all the thoughts, beliefs and actions that he swore he wouldn’t.
Today, Ralph – a high school drop out – has four college degrees. He has written two books, is an Internationally Syndicated Columnist, and owns a successful management consulting firm. He has learned how to take control of his life, losing more than 150lbs (without surgery, or a magic pill), he has completed more than 40 marathons, and he is sober.
KEY TAKE-AWAYS

Ralph is a brilliant story teller that uses humor, and real life examples to arm attendees with a renewed sense of purpose as well as practical tips and strategies that will enable them see, understand and overcome any obstacle they may be facing. Weight Loss, depression, alcoholism, working at a job you hate, or spending your time with people that are no good for you.

Managing in the Millennium
Experts suggest that by 2020 the millennial generation (1980-2001) will make up over 50% of our workplace and 75% of the global workforce by 2030.
It is imperative that today’s organizations discover new ways to excite and engage this generation, without abandoning the other predominate generations in the workforce (Gen X & Baby Boomers).
In this seminar, attendees will learn how to effectively communicate and lead in a multi-generational environment.
