Customized Content
Do you and your attendees need more information on what’s happening in the economy and financial markets than what you get from watching the evening news? Do you feel like you’re not getting the whole scoop from the national media. What are the issues facing your industry—issues that are affecting your bottom line—that you would like to better understand?
Economic futurist Jeff Thredgold has been entertaining and informing audiences for over two decades. With a unique ability to "cut though the fluff," he leads his audience on a slightly irreverent, up-to-the-minute "tour" of the economy, financial markets, education, retirement, and a sneak preview of the future. Jeff provides to you and your audiences:
| |
|
up-to-the-minute, pertinent, and reliable insights about what’s happening in the economy and financial markets and why that’s important for you, your business, and your family |
| |
|
the experience and knowledge gained from having served as Senior Vice President and Chief Economist for $105 billion banking giant KeyCorp, and from currently serving as economic consultant to $55 billion Zions Bancorporation, with banks in ten states |
| |
|
a free subscription for each attendee to the Tea Leaf, Jeff’s weekly e-mail newsletter. Jeff has been writing a weekly newsletter for 35 years, keeping people informed about the latest developments in the economy and financial markets |
| |
|
solid information that your attendees won’t find anywhere else, and that they can apply back at the office |
Entertainment
OK, he’s no Jay Leno. But Jeff Thredgold will definitely keep your attendees awake and engaged!
Let’s face it. Regardless of your event goals, whether you’re putting on a technical conference or a motivational or leadership program, the speakers have to be entertaining or your attendees will 1) sleep, 2) not learn anything, or worse yet, 3) not come back next year.
| |
|
Every attendee at your event gets their own copy of Jeff’s book On the One Hand...The Economist’s Joke Book. With tens of thousands of copies in print, this hilarious collection of “less academic” insights into the world of economics will keep your attendees chuckling on their return flight and remembering your event after they’re home. Up to 400 copies of On the One Hand—a value of $2,600—are provided to your group at no charge |

“You were great! And, yes, economics can be ‘entertaining and humorous.’ Early feedback shows that yours may have been one of the best overall sessions we have ever had. It’s tough being the ‘last act’ on a Saturday morning, but I didn’t see a single participant leave after the break. Kudos to you for a job well done.”
