"Cheerman of the Bored"

If your organization is hiring "Generation X" and "Generation Y" employees, quit bringing in Generation ZZzzzzz speakers and trainers! It's time to wake up your conferences and learning events with a professional speaker that uses humor and relevant stories to anchor learning nuggets.

Gina Schreck is president and founder of The Pinnacle Group and SchreckTalk Keynotes, two Colorado companies founded in 1995. Her background as a corporate manager, business owner, wife, mother of four, author of numerous books, cook and chief-bottle-washer (not to mention being a finalist in the Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes...twelve years in a row) gives her a real-world understanding of just how easy it is to become disconnected from those that matter most.

Gina Schreck's programs help people reconnect and form better team relationships, improve communication skills and feel energized and ready to take on the world again (okay perhaps that's a tad dramatic--but gosh darn it, people feel great after her programs!) .

"STOP THE MADNESS!"

Hire the right speaker for you next event...Gina Schreck will definitely make you the hero as she leaves your audience laughing! A professional speaker for 12 years, Gina can entertain, inspire AND deliver a message that is relevant and impactful (all while standing on her head drinking a Starbucks' Caramel Macchiato!).

Gina Schreck is known for her quick wit and inspirational stories. Gina has been voted "the absolute favorite" by conference attendees and "is a joy to work with" for meeting planners. So popular, Gina could have her own prime-time television show called, "Everybody Loves Gina!" But maybe that idea has already been taken.

Gina Schreck's background as a corporate manager, a business owner, wife, mother of four, author, coach, dog-walker, nose wiper, and Olympic-style shopper gives her a real world understanding of the chaos we all must survive in. Gina Schreck will help make your event a success and possibly pick up some groceries for you in the process!

Maybe it was her short attention span, or her gift for sarcasm and humor, but after sitting through her share of sleepy, lecture-style keynotes and training sessions, Gina Schreck and her husband, Kirk, left their corporate jobs in 1995 and started The Pinnacle Group, (a training company) to help bring fun and learning back together for corporate America.

As a professional speaker (member of the National Speakers Association), Gina Schreck can open your meeting, facilitate a breakout session, emcee an event or "call the troops to action" at the close of your meeting.
