Barbara M. Vernoski, is a Dynamic and Sought after Speaker, and Writer. She has been speaking for 20 years. Barbara has spoken for Officer Wives groups, Campus Crusade, Stonecroft Ministries, Home School Events, Business Training, Women’s Retreats, Women’s Events and Corporate Training. Barbara’s story is one of courage and hope, over coming many obstacles and turning them into opportunities! She will play on your heart Strings. You will be on the edge of your seat, laughing one minute and moved to tears the next. When you hire me as a Speaker: 1. I hold a conversation — I talk WITH your folks, rather than AT them. And I don't shy away from the touchy topics on everyone's minds. 2. I Reframe their perspective — It helps to know that work/life issues and adjusting to change are universal challenges. Accepting change with resilience is rewarding … no matter who you are. 3. I will Help them be ready to take action — Each of us has choices and personal accountability. I inspire and encourage all individuals to take action, live their lives, and find meaning in their work and personal lives. Together, we can make a difference in people's lives! Each program or workshop is customized and tailored to the audience and the clients needs. Topics that I speak on: Barbara’s Personal Story of Restorations-”How My Life Took Off When I Used the Right Flight Plan” “To Lead Others You Have to First Find the Leader Within Yourself” “The Gift of Coaching One of the Greatest Gift You Can Give” “How to Run Your Own Brian” “Becoming Your own Restoration Strategist” “Our Daughters are a Diamond’s in the Rough” “Generation Differences- there is differences but there doesn’t have to be a Gap” “It’s Your Road Map- Whose in the Driver’s Seat?” “If You Don't Know Where You're Going?"
