Mike Robertson

Mike Robertson is a professional member of the National Speakers Association whose greatest joy is in helping people find and develop their creative abilities. He practices what he preaches: Mike is a musician, author of four books, gifted storyteller, and has more than 20 years of graphic design experience. He views his presentations as works of art, designed to entertain, inspire and dazzle audiences through his humor, insight and artistic approach to the visuals which accompany his words. Equally at home speaking to 2000 or 20, Mike is a personable, natural raconteur who will hold the attention of any group, while giving them much to think about in the weeks to come.

As a keynote: Combining incredible natural storytelling skill with the wit and timing of a standup comic, Mike grabs the attention of his audience immediately and then uses that connection to make them laugh, sometimes cry, and always think. A comedian can make your group laugh, but Mike's "humor with a hook" can make them laugh at the same time that important life lessons are being conveyed.

As a breakout: Mike's session — No Power & No Point — is a wealth of ideas, tips and techniques for creating and using slides in presentations that will thrill and delight an audience. Even an audience of professional speakers responded with a standing ovation to this innovative and creative workshop.

As emcee: Mike's ability to ad-lib and be spontaneously funny makes him the perfect master of ceremonies, able to fill in those awkward moments and keep your meeting moving smoothly.

Uh-oh, your speaker cancelled? Got a last-minute cancellation? Mike is always ready with the perfect speech; if he's got an open date, he can save the day for you.

"Mike Robertson sees what we all see, but connects things in ways most of us don't. Mike is a creative and skilled communicator, using images, stories and humor in calling people to be the best they can be and to do more than they think they can do."

"Mike delivers beautiful life insights and compelling truths wrapped in enjoyable stories from everyday life. Like Garrison Keillor, Bill Cosby, or even Mark Twain, Mike's narratives are always fun for people of all ages and uplifting to everyone."

"If you want a truly inspirational event speaker, Mike Robertson has a personal style that is wholly unique. I have enjoyed his speeches on many occasions, and have been enthralled and touched every time. He has a marvelous sense of humor and uses it to entertain and charm, but also to teach. I think what makes Mike so successful as a speaker is that he genuinely likes people. He loves to have you see other humans in a better light, learning from each story, and making you examine your own perspectives and opinions. Mike's words come from a warm, kind place you will enjoy visiting."
