Blake Canterbury

Blake Canterbury is the Founder and CEO of beremedy - the simplest way to help other people. beremedy is an organization that uses social media to connect those in need with those that can help. It's based on the concept that there are the resources in every community to meet the needs of that community. beremedy has been named one of the "3 best twitter usages worldwide" by CNN (3/20/11). beremedy was one of the leading organizations in bringing aid to Haiti after the earthquake using social media to network organizations, the UN and U.S. Marines. Through social media they have been able to help thousands of people and they're just getting started.

Blake Canterbury was an early adopter in the social media world. He began by teaching his friends and family about tools before they could pronounce them correctly (you can often catch his mom tweeting replies to him that she thinks are texts.) Early on, he saw the ability to communicate a message to millions of people & the potential to use that for good. He launched his first company based on social media in 2009. He is now on a mission to make his home city Atlanta known for being, the #1 city for social good. He is also available to speak on social media.

Blake is sought out nationally to speak about a variety of topics relating to the beremedy story, Leadership, Social Media, Bringing Real World Results from Online Campaigns, Entrepreneurship, and more. He is also able to create a signature message for your organization, conference, seminar, or event.


Tom McManus

Tom McManus was one of the original members of the Jacksonville Jaguars (1995-1999). After finishing his career at Boston College as an All-American, he found himself out of football for two full seasons, tending bar in Chicago, while dreaming of playing in the NFL. He made the team in the Jaguars first year of existence and played an instrumental role during the Jaguars early successes in the mid-to-late 90’s, including being the starting middle linebacker for the team during it’s Cinderella year of 1996 when the Jaguars reached the AFC Championship Game in only their second year. In 1999, a foot injury sidelined him for good and his dream was over. Tom was known for his all out work ethic on the field and his approachability off it. He is a member of the BC Hall of Fame Class of 2009.

Suck It Up! was created in honor of an American Hero and for the future of our children. It is a message of “tough love” to the American people, to get us back to what made our great country the strongest in the world.

Tom’s talks are centered on the Suck It Up! Way of Life Principles which state; Look in the mirror, offer no excuses, and be the best we can be in everything we are and do.

Tom believes in the life philosophy of “no passing the buck and no finger pointing, just looking in the mirror and being honest with the reflection! Although Suck It Up! Join the Movement! has compassion, at the end of the day it is up to us to make our lives as good as we want!”

Management Speaker Marcus Buckingham On Customized Leadership

Marcus Buckingham continues to be one of the worlds top leadership and management speakers.  Marcus  has dedicated himself to understanding what makes world-class managers tick, bottling it, and sharing it with the world. He first conquered the bestseller lists in 1999 with First, Break All the Rules. While the title may imply an iconoclastic streak, his continuing plea for managers to break with tradition has nothing to do with rebellion; instead, he argues, rules must be broken and discarded because they stifle the originality and uniqueness — the strengths — that can enable all of us to achieve our highest performance.

In his latest book, StandOut, Marcus shows how to create a tool for identifying each person's leadership type. That type then became the filter through which some, though not all, leadership development content is delivered. He designed an algorithm within StandOut, his online strengths-assessment tool. StandOut is a situational judgment test, meaning that people indicate their likeliest response to a series of situations. By focusing on behaviors, this type of test captures how people come across to others better than assessments that ask respondents to rate themselves on a variety of traits.

Then, he gave the assessment to the company's best leaders. Their analysis showed that the range of behaviors seen across those thousands of people could be divided into nine categories, which we call strength roles. These represent the most common ways specific strengths cluster and combine in individual leaders. Next, we interviewed a cross section of leaders to discover their leadership techniques.

This is where the algorithm comes in. You can use an algorithm to target techniques to the right people. Companies should assess all developing leaders and feed each one practices derived from excellent leaders who have the same leadership type.
