Keynotes & Workshops

During An Evening With Monty Criswell, we’ll talk about believing in a great outcome despite overwhelming odds. Using the negativity of others as gasoline to help you chase your goals. And I’ll show you how to properly store it.

We’ll talk about turning off fear and noise and how to get out of your comfort zone. I’ll help you get your toes out on the edge of the ledge where the good stuff lives.

I’ll show you the benefits of always being teachable; listening to others instead of just hearing them. Being mindful that everybody you’re working with also has skin in the game.

I’ve always been taught not to work until I was finished but to work until I was proud. And that changing on the fly or in mid stream is permissible, if it makes for a better outcome.

I’ll remind you that in a world full of hate and jealousy that love makes a difference.

That you can achieve the right goal if you have the right people around you.

We’ll go through a simple concept of living life two weeks at a time. It’s what I had to do as I went through chemo working toward surgery for colon cancer. It made me much more efficient at work and in life.

Finally, we’ll walk through the top things I learned while beating cancer, and the top funniest things that happened to me while I beat cancer (yes, humor and a positive mindset are two of our greatest weapons).

We’ll do all of this while I tell you how I became a hit songwriter, and let you in on the stories behind the songs. And we’ll play some of those hits as well.
