Michigan Speakers

AchieveMax® speakers and consultants live and work in the state of Michigan. If you schedule a presentation in Michigan, travel costs will be considerably less than if you booked a speaker from another state.

Also, with AchieveMax® speakers, your seminar, training, or keynote presentation will be custom-designed to fit your needs. Seminars can be scheduled for half-day, full-day, or multiple-day sessions. Keynote presentations can also be scheduled according to your needs.

Our speakers include Harry K. Jones, Jeffrey W. Drake, Ph.D., and Shelley R. Riebel.

Testimonials from Michigan Clients

Dianne Addington, President/CEO of Genisys Credit Union, said:

"Over the past 22 years of my life as the CEO of a large credit union, I can't think of a business partner that has had more influence on my management team than AchieveMax® and specifically Harry K. Jones.

"Up until recently our engagement of AchieveMax® had consisted of one- or two-day events on team building initiatives or enhancing management and leadership skills. Without fail we always walked away with an action plan for execution. As a result of a merger of two $600 million credit unions which more than doubled our management team, in 2009 we engaged Harry K. Jones for a year-long initiative to work with over 70 managers of Genisys Credit Union in order to provide the whole management team with the skill set and tools they needed for success as a manager of Genisys. As a result it has allowed for faster cultural integration and consistency throughout our 25 locations.

"The investment that our credit union has made and continues to make in our management team by engaging the services of AchieveMax® has allowed Genisys Credit Union to build and retain a management team second to none. The performance of Genisys Credit Union especially in today's market is a testimony to the caliber of the Genisys Management Team. We credit Harry K. Jones from AchieveMax® for helping us build that Team.

Tom Duemling, Secretary/Treasurer, for the Michigan Parking Association, said:

"Not only did Harry deliver a compelling message to our association members, he also helped energize our board, and we gained even more volunteers for our association events. Our association theme for next year is 'Building Bridges Through Networking.' The idea of the theme came, in part, from Harry's powerful message about networking with others. I recommend Harry K. Jones and AchieveMax® to other associations. They provide custom-designed presentations and customer-friendly service that helped 'Achieve the Maximum®' for the Michigan Parking Association."

Maribeth Bramlage, Manager of Education and Training of the Michigan Credit Union League, said:

"I can honestly say that working with AchieveMax® has been the most satisfying of all my speaker contacts. AchieveMax® has added value beyond expectations to all the programs they delivered. What I was most impressed with was their willingness to tailor the content to meet the specific needs of the audience. Words can't begin to express my gratitude for all AchieveMax® did to make our program a big success."

Sharri Margraves, Manager at Michigan State University, said:

"AchieveMax® helped turn our organization around by focusing on our specific problems. The transformation was nothing short of phenomenal. As the first woman manager working with three different unions, my groups and I were able to work through issues like empowerment and change by solving problems with goal setting. AchieveMax® has the expert knowledge and wide range of experience that make the difference for my organization."

Janet Strope, Director of the Office of Financial Assistance Programs
for the State of Michigan, said:

"Our planning committee picked a topic they felt would be helpful to staff at this time, and Mr. Jones developed a program to fit our needs.  On the day of the meeting, he arrived at 8 a.m. for a 1:30 p.m. presentation so that he could gather information about the group during our other discussions.  With this background and an added touch of humor, he kept the audience's attention and gave some extremely helpful tips on facing not only their days at FIA, but in their personal lives also.  I would like to take this opportunity to recommend this speaker for your consideration."

Karlene Ketola, Vice President of Member Services for the Michigan Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, said:

"Thank you for Harry K. Jones' terrific presentations at the Michigan Association of Homes and Services 2004 state conference.  His keynote session, Productive Chaos: Riding the Wave of Change, and breakout session, Developing Empowered Teams, programs were overwhelming successes!

"Aside from the written evaluations, several people shared how much they enjoyed his programs and how beneficial they were.  Harry did a great job of tailoring his message to our audience.  It was a delight working with your organization."

Paula S. Davis, President of the Michigan Chapter of the Employee Involvement Association, said:

"Mr. Harry K. Jones was one of our workshop presenters as well as our keynote speaker at the closing.  Harry delivered an excellent workshop on "Attitude and Balance for Self-Enhancement," and his keynote was on our theme, "Employee Involvement - Evolution or Revolution?"  They were both dynamic and the feedback from the participants indicated that he did an outstanding job."

Charles D. Ross, Chairman for the Michigan Apprenticeship Steering Committee, said:

"Our evaluation form is ranked from (1) to (5) with (4) being very good and (5) being excellent. Harry didn't receive an evaluation of less than four! I also received many spontaneous comments from conferees during the conference on how much they appreciated and enjoyed Harry's presentation.

Harry did his homework in preparing for his presentation. He researched our organization, spoke with several members and focused his message on what is important to us as an organization ... What more can we ask for? And his delivery, accompanied by his bag of tricks, kept the audience's attention with his gift of fast-paced humor, while at the same time hitting all the important points of our mission and our vision.

Margaret M. Tarr, GRI, ABR, President of the Down River Association of Realtors® , said:

"Harry K. Jones delivered a straight to the point presentation that really hit home with all of us! He incorporated facts, strategies, techniques and humor all in one great production.

The Down River Association of Realtors® would highly recommend Harry to all that would like a straight talking speaker that keeps the crowd engaged. We know that Harry had the challenging task of conveying stress management techniques to a group of Realtors® in the ever challenging and struggling market of Michigan. He really hit the nail on the head by emphasizing his point about "thinking inside the box" again.

"We believe that many agents went back to their offices and implemented many of Harry's ideas and thoughts. Truly a two thumbs up presentation!"

Kristine Kading, Program Chair of Michigan Recreation and Park Association Therapeutic Recreation Institute, said:

"'Very Engaging,' 'Amazingly Motivating,' 'Informative and Entertaining,' and an 'Excellent Speaker,' are just a few comments that have been received by the attendees at the Michigan Recreation and Parks Association Therapeutic Recreation Institute held this month.

"Harry K. Jones of AchieveMax®, Inc.was our opening keynote speaker and presented 'On Your Mark, Get Set, Goal!' Harry did an outstanding job setting the tone of our conference in his opening keynote. He was engaging to the audience and kept the presentation light-hearted and humorous without losing the message."
