In a field as dynamic and competitive as speaking, resilience is not just an advantage but a necessity. In this episode, Adam Markel sits down with Rich Tiller, an industry leader and two-time past president of the International Association of Speakers Bureaus (1990-91 & 1991-92.). They dive deep into Rich’s journey, from his early days as an athletic trainer to becoming a catalyst for connecting speakers with audiences. Rich highlights the evolution of the Speakers Bureau, particularly within the agricultural sector where he initially started, eventually branching out to create a non-agricultural division. Rich’s story is a testament to the resilience required in the speaking industry and the transformative power of effective communication.
