As a young man, Dave Bricker was inspired by the remarkable people he met in Miami's sailboat anchorage, a quarter-mile off-shore from Miami City Hall. All had remarkable stories to tell.
By the time he graduated college, he was living aboard his own tiny sailboat. Soon after graduation, he set sail for the Bahamas with a locker full of food and dreams ... and $40 in his pocket.
His voyages took him up and down the Bahamas, up the east coast of the US to Chesapeake Bay, and across the Atlantic to Gibraltar. He ran aground, dealt with mechanical breakdowns, got seasick more than once, slept in a volcano, survived powerful storms, and returned to the land of clocks and calendars with what he'd gone in search of—stories of his own.
Today, Dave Bricker helps remarkable people tell remarkable stories—through engaging and interactive business storytelling programs and presentation skills workshops. If you want to say it, share it, or sell it, bring him your story; he'll help you tell it.
The process begins with listening to YOU! Ask Dave to customize a keynote, workshop, or retreat for your event, staff, or executive team.
