"Let Your Business Card Do the Talking" with Dr. Robert D. Kelly, University of Portland President

The moment Dr. Kelly showed me his University of Portland business card, I knew my listeners had to meet him too. Join our conversation and discover how the lowly business card can help you remember what to say when you’re introducing yourself. We also learn what not to do if you ever get to meet Former President Obama. Dr. Kelly is a speaker who brings joy, presence and calm to the stage by using breath, music and recalling the best memories. Special thanks to NYC-based illustrator Melinda Beck who created Gigi’s business cards and whose work is featured on this show.
