Dennis Bauer
Entertainment... with a point!
"I heard the engine cough... sputter... and watched the propeller windmill as we coasted through the air. I was now flying on Fumes and a Prayer! ... The air traffic control guy on the radio asked me, 'Cessna 65Victor... are you declaring an emergency?'"
Your conference or convention attendees will laugh, they will cry, they will be moved!
From the #1 Bestselling Author of Fumes and a Prayer: How to Live at the Edge and Still be Home for Dinner ...
"Keep Your Cool in Turbulent Times." In his keynote, Dennis Bauer shows you how to live life successfully even when it takes you to the edge! And he asks you to remember three key words, words his flight instructor taught him, words he didn't know he would need until the day he listened to his engine cough and sputter and die ... five thousand feet over northern Colorado.
Using a story-based presentation, Dennis relates, sometimes hilariously, the dramatic story of when he flew his Cessna 206, with three passengers aboard, from Tacoma, Washington, to Denver, Colorado, and the engine quit 5,000 feet above the ground.
The steps he took in the face of The Unexpected apply equally to life, business, and relationships, and enable you to soar to new heights!
