Bill Withers
Dr
IA, USDr. Bill Withers is a unique speaker, facilitator, and workshop leader, and his love for "Aloha shirts" is only part of his story! Groups will benefit from his decades of prior business management and leadership experience, which is why he can relate to everyone from Gen Y/Millennials to Boomers and beyond, through all stages of career development.
Bill has also served many advisory boards and councils over the years, including two terms on the board of directors for Iowa Public Television. He can relate to all levels of organizations, whether larger corporates or smaller non-profits, from 'the front lines', to the C-suite.
Perhaps the greatest benefit to audiences is Dr. Withers' research into top-tier organizations, including Hy-Vee, Ritz-Carlton, Disney, Four Seasons, Starbucks, and most recently, Southwest Airlines. In fact, he's been invited to make similar presentations numerous times at The International Conference on Business in Honolulu where audiences come from 20 different countries, from all around the Pacific Rim, so you'll learn from the best-of-the-best.
During his academic career Dr. Withers won both teacher and advisor of the year awards while also contributing to three books in the areas of leadership and customer service. Today he serves on the executive team of Lutheran Church of Hope, the largest mainline protestant church of its type in North America. He continues to serve organizations of all sizes in the areas of public relations, quality customer service, organizational change, and leadership development.
