Lessons from Michael – The Power of Passion/ Speaker: Edie R

Edie Raether, MS, CSP is a motivational speaker, a change strategist, international speaker and author. She is an authority on optimizing potential and the Other IQ – Innovation, Influence and Intuitive Intelligence. At the risk of sounding like I am gushing, I have to tell you Edie Rather is really outstanding. She is beyond awesome!

From Edie's book, Winning!:
"Whether you were a fan of Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, or one who saw only his idiosyncrasies, there are many lessons for all of us in his trials and tribulations, turbulence, yet triumph. As a teacher and healer at heart, I was in awe with the connectedness he had with millions of people from all over the world. I have been obsessed observing and studying the magnetism of this man who had been somewhat in hiding in recent years. The tragedies of such a talent can be explained another time, but it is often the price paid for fame and fortune by creative, sensitive people living in an insensitive world.

As the author of a book on influence and persuasion, Forget Selling, I see Michael Jackson as the icon of influence. His charm and charisma was mesmerizing. But what was the magic? What are the secrets to his success so we can all optimize our potential for a future of unlimited possibilities. In fact, Michael disputed that the sky was the limit, as he saw NO limits."
