Gary Yamamoto
Gary Yamamoto puts excitement and energy back into the lives
of people! He shares with people how to overcome mental
stagnation and genuinely enjoy work and life.
Gary’s background was quite colorful. He grew up in beautiful, old
Hawaii (yes, he surfed!). He learned about personal development
through his Aikido training, the healing arts, meditation practice
(under a waterfall!), and his many adventures in the Boy Scouts. At
the same time, he managed the design, installation, and testing of
the most complex communications systems for the U.S. Government
throughout the Pacific Rim countries, traveling worldwide.
Additionally, Gary managed the reliability and vulnerability testing
and evaluation of the Polaris, Poseidon and Trident warheads for
nuclear submarines. That eventually became ho-hum, so he started
his own business.
With a passion for reading, writing and sharing personal
development wisdom, he founded and ran a trade book publishing
company, as publisher and CEO, for 5-plus years. Wanting to share
his knowledge with an even larger audience, Gary then sold his half
of the company to his partner, to move on to yet a new adventure,
full-time professional speaking.
Gary's presentations are geared to help people successfully
overcome the stresses and challenges of life and work and imbue
people with renewed passion. Gary tailors his presentations to your
needs. Your attendees will leave his presentation feeling uplifted and
raring to go, as well as fortified with effective methods to deal with
change, improve their performance and increase their productivity.
His presentations are a combination of information, motivation, and
humor. An enthusiastic and dynamic speaker, he combines rich
insights with fun, practical examples, memorable stories, personal
experiences, and audience interaction. He offers the keys to help
attendees to increase performance, enhance personal and
professional change and development, and further enjoy their lives.
He will bring and use his trademark samurai sword to show
attendees he is on the “cutting edge” and to help them "get the
point."
Gary has spoken to a wide and diverse clientele, including
corporations, associations, and government agencies. He is the
author of 5 books, including "Professional Power, Personal
Excellence," that shows individuals how to improve their careers by
improving not only their abilities, but also their behavior.
Gary Yamamoto also offers a unique program with total audience
involvement—his presentation on dreams. This highly interactive
program is both fun as well as fosters creativity, innovation, and
problem solving. Gary shows attendees how dreams can provide
insights, solutions, and guidance.
