*********************************************
Daniel believes that his main purpose as
keynote speaker, seminar/workshop
facilitator or lecturer is to add value to
the lives of those in attendance. In every
presentation, he strives to encourage,
entertain, and better equip others to be
winners in the workplace and in the home. He
wants people to feel free to laugh, cry or
simply have a good time during his
presentations. Daniel believes that it is
his job to give people the tools they need
to transform their lives, but they
themselves must choose to utilize those
tools.
Daniel understands that he can’t control
what a person does or doesn’t do with the
tools and skills that he will provide them
during his presentation. He also knows that
everyone will need and receive something
different from his presentations that
only they will benefit from today, tomorrow
or sometime in the future.

Instead, Daniel was sent to live
in a state run institution with
several hundred other children.
When others said that he would
never amount to much, he vowed to
prove them wrong. Daniel

age.

writing course to first year
undergraduate students, which
covers such areas as: research
writing, critical thinking, time
management, stress management and
problem solving.
For nearly 30 years Daniel has
been recognized as someone who
inspires, motivates and entertains
those in attendance at his

years he hosted his own TV program
entitled “The Restoration Factor”.
He also wrote a newspaper
column for a number of years
entitled “Dear Dr. Dan.”
Daniel received his “Certification

eight years, he has taught a three
credit hour writing course at the

Daniel determined at a very
young age that life was full of
choices, and that he was going to
choose to be a winner. Drawing on
his background in teaching,
counselling, ministry, business
and public relations, Daniel
brings a refreshing approach to
age-old questions concerning the
human condition.

Workplace
and Life Issues:
The Winning Side of Losing: Four Powerful Steps to
Help You Claim the Winners Prize
Everyone struggles with loss. Using convincing
personal stories and object lessons, Daniel
challenges others to use their life experiences to
step out from the crowd and not be afraid to fail in
life or in business. He shows others how to be a
winner, even when they lose in life. It is his
belief that winning is as much about how you travel
down the road of life and the decisions you make a
long life’s road, as it is about the rewards, you
receive along the way. In this workshop, you will
learn four powerful steps that you can use to help
clam the winner's prize whenever you are faced with
a loss in life.
Boundaries in the
Workplace and in Your Personal Life: Five
Essentials for Maintaining a Healthy Self-Image
We are all accustom to using and respecting
boundaries in our life. We see a yellow light, and
we slow down. We see a red light, and we stop and
when we see a green light, we go. We obey signs that
tell us not to enter a building or to please be
quiet while we are in the library. We use fences to
mark the boundaries of our homes and walls or
portable panels to mark the boundaries of our
workspace, bedrooms, offices, buildings, etc. But
what about our personal boundaries? How can we
tell when others have trampled our personal
boundaries or how we can develop and maintain
healthy boundaries in the workplace and in our life?
In this workshop, you will learn five essentials for
maintaining a healthy self-image in the workplace
and in your personal life.

International Student
Success Issues:
The Asian Invasion:
We Want Them in Our Colleges and Universities, But
What Do We Do With Them Once We Get Them There?
The word is out, international students sitting in
our college and university classrooms and seats help
us to pay our bills. We recruit and encourage them
to travel thousands of miles to come to our college
or university campus to complete their degrees,
while we often don’t have a plan as to what happens
once they get there. Questions have to be asked
like: What is the impact on the international
students themselves by bringing them to our campus?
What about our faculty and staff members or our own
students? In this workshop, you will learn how
to achieve success by bringing international
students, faculty and staff members and their fellow
students together as one remarkable working unit,
with each group working independently and together
towards one common goal – academic success for
everyone involved.
Four Keys to
Helping International Students Succeed in a North
American College or University Environment
It doesn’t take an international student long to
recognize that a North American academic environment
is different from the schools and classes that they
had back in their home country. The teaching styles
are different. The equipment used in the classroom
is different. The students themselves are different,
and they act and behave differently. The academic
language and learning materials are different and
most of all, the language is different. Most
international students struggle in their new
academic environment. In this workshop, you will
learn to help your international students succeed as
you learn four keys that you can use to help
international students succeed in a North American
college or university environment.
