New York Times Best Selling Author Don Yaeger Endorses THE Executive Speech Coach Patricia Fripp.
However, it goes both ways. Patricia Fripp recommends Don Yaeger. Yes, he is a best selling author and Sports Illustrated for years. Don has a relationship with so many sports stars and has the ability to help his audience see their humanity and well as their greatness. On a personal note I am not interested in sports. Yet I love Don's stories because they give valuable lessons about life and greatness.
When you listen to Don you laugh, think, shed a tear and are committed to be more than you thought you could be.
Don observed, wrote about, and now talks about 16 Characteristics of Greatness. Clients often bring him back...at least 4 times...because you have 4 Characteristics each speech.
