During his keynote speech, Personal Accountability and the Challenges of Life, Amps challenges both organizations and individuals to abandon their comfort zone; set aside their routines, become more creative and embrace the opportunities revealed by doing so.

An effective motivator, Amps says that “one has to be held personally accountable for how they live, despite the circumstances.
