Jean Gatz  

Employee Development and HR Management Expert

Combining wit with wisdom and humor with common sense, Jean Gatz has been described as a "one-woman show." Meeting planners and audiences alike repeatedly comment on her blend of comedy with content, along with the entertainment factor in her keynotes. She revitalizes every event, and audience members talk about the impact of her humor, stories and life lessons long after she's left the platform and your conference has ended.

Jean works with a wide variety of clients including women's organizations, food service, business and industry, realtors, healthcare, banking, pharmaceuticals, education, HR, government, and associations, both profit and non-profit. As a successful entrepreneur, keynoter and author with a talent for being "really funny," Jean brings a wealth of experience and entertainment to every audience.

Jean is a Platinum Level Speaker for Meeting Professionals International (MPI). She has also been voted one of the "Top Ten" speakers for the Society for Human Resource Management at the largest HR conference in the world. As a CSP, Jean is one of only 159 women to hold the designation of Certified Speaking Professional. This means she has the proven platform experience, understands what is required, and knows how to deliver client satisfaction - every time. Jean is the author of "How to Be the Person Successful Companies Fight to Keep" (published by Simon & Schuster and translated into several languages) and "Mama Said There'll Be Days Like This," stories and strategies for living life with wisdom, courage and a sense of humor. Her latest book, "Clean Out the Junk Drawer of Your Life" is due out in February 2005. Her clients include the Women's Foodservice Forum, McDonalds' Women Operators Network, Association of KFC Franchisees, National Association of Realtors, The Federal Reserve Bank, Automatic Data Processing, IBM, Tempus Software, American Hospital Association and U.S. Navy Exchange Service Command.
