Healthy Enough to Serve
This keynote presentation is an engaging and motivational exploration of how prioritizing
personal well-being enables individuals to better serve themselves, their organization,
and the greater community. We don't leave our emotions at the door when we come into
work or when we arrive home. Throughout the presentation, Coach Q engages his audience
with interactive demonstrations, storytelling, and motivational anecdotes, reviewing
the emotions we bring to work and how those emotions affect behaviors, responses to
change, performance, and interactions with others in the workplace and in our lives.
He creates a supportive and encouraging atmosphere, empowering attendees to take ownership
of their health and make positive changes. He offers concrete suggestions for improving
mental, physical, and emotional health via a Toolkit for Improved Wellness. Discover
the tools needed and how to master them to be healthy enough to serve.
