John Sanchez started his career at a top 10 international CPA firm and quickly climbed the ranks at some of best Fortune 500 companies in the country. Things took a surprising turn when the division he worked in at AutoNation USA, the countries largest auto retailer, shut down abruptly, leaving John and 400+ colleagues out of work. Realizing the unique and highly valuable skillset John had, AutoNation quickly hired John back as a consultant. Having never thought he would be back at his former employer, John became a consultant quite accidentally and he never looked back. While working on a finance consulting project for the CFO of a national financial services marketing firm, John was asked by a national think tank and training organization to speak at a conference about some of his budget and forecasting experiences. John quickly realized he loved speaking and training and has since devoted more and more of his time to training accounting and finance professionals and speaking to diverse crowds about the incredible lessons he has learned through his twenty plus year career working with people and organizations from a diverse range of industries. The Power of Proximity! John now works with one of the premiere coaches in the United States, Brett Figueroa, who was the top salesperson and trainer for world-renowned Tony Robbins before striking out on his own and growing a wildly successful coaching practice. Tony Robbins has worked on an individual basis with former Presidents (Bill Clinton), world-class athletes (Wayne Gretzky, Serena Williams) , A-list celebrities (Hugh Jackman, Pitbull) and American businessmen (Peter Guber, Steve Wynn) and Figueroa not only learned from the best, but now teaches and coaches others (including John Sanchez) to achieve results using the same technologies and techniques.

If you're the type of meeting planner ... who wants an informative, yet entertaining presentation--the kind of presentation that will have attendees feeling good about their potential to improve in some area of their personal and/or professional life, and more importantly, singing your praises for inviting them to attend, then "Lemonade Dave" is the ideal speaker for your event! David Justus is an author, motivational speaker, and Guinness World Record Holder. As a two-time cancer survivor, he has made a habit out of turning his life's lemons into lemonade. Add this to his book he wrote called, The Lemonade Stand: How to Make a Difference 101 and his Guinness Record for the world's longest lemonade stand, and you can understand why he is affectionately called, "Lemonade Dave." When you meet him, you will see his passion for life radiates through his smile and appreciation for others. He is easy to work with when planning for and during your event. And he doesn't just attend for his presentation, he enjoys meeting attendees throughout the day, and desires to spend as much time as possible getting to know them. BE FAIR WARNED: The energy from his presentations instantly begins to skyrocket after he is introduced because he sprints from the back of the room and onto the stage! He immediately gets the attendees involved by leading an interactive activity that has them pumped up about the hearing his message. Then, his stories take them on a journey, making them laugh one minute and cry the next, as he leads them down a path to realizing they have the potential to be and do more! And for many people, that it is never too late to become everything they are capable of becoming!

I'm not boring. I hate death by PowerPoint lectures and refuse to give them no matter what size group I am speaking to. I've been told I have a stage presence that is great for keeping an audience engaged and participating. I've kept the philosophy to never stop learning so I train folks on a variety of topics including crisis management, first aid, cpr, leadership, and I have team-building exercises. I can provide information in a way that makes the key points memorable. I have over 20 years of experience in management, human resources, safety and security in retail, manufacturing and education. Not only have I worked in these fields at the director level, but I have also worked in Emergency Medical Services since 2009. That's right....after my "day" job, I hop on an ambulance. I also volunteer with the local fire department. I understand chaos. I previously served as the Director of the Program Innovation at a Community College and currently serve as a Program Manager for NAMI TN. I'm licensed in CPR/First Aid(instructor), EMS and Dispatch. A graduate of Leadership Jackson, Leadership Gibson County and WestStar, a multi-county leadership program. A certified trainer in Crisis Intervention, mainly working with police departments, a Community Emergency Response Team trainer for adults and teenagers and a former team leader for my county's disaster animal rescue team. I also teach Criminal Justice and Business classes at the college level. I've served the Past Chair of the Local Emergency Response Committee and currently serve as the public information officer. I have almost completed my doctorate of health sciences and have a master’s degree in Organizational Management, 18 hours of masters level work in Criminal Justice, a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and a certificate in Mediation and Dispute Resolution. I'm also very good at acting and even played Demi Moore's role in "A Few Good Men." This means, I can improvise when computers don't work, speakers don't arrive on time or you have a case of Murphy's law at your event that requires someone with improvisation skills. I have worked with multiple businesses on teambuilding, motivation, safety, HR, conflict resolution, interviewing skills, disaster management and overall leadership improvement. From groups as small as 10 to groups over 500, I will not let my audience get bored.
