Who is Gary?
Gary Montgomery is a living example of the message he shares wherever he travels. As a youngster he read the newspaper as though he was presenting the evening news. He told folks he was on his way to becoming a television broadcaster, maybe even make it to the Johnny Carson Show.
After twenty-five years in television broadcasting he's still looking for a call from the late-night talk shows ... but hey, life's not over yet!
After traveling and broadcasting as far away as Anchorage, Alaska, Gary returned to Louisville Kentucky and became an award winning sportscaster in his hometown. You can watch Gary every night on WDRB-Fox 41's "The News @ 10" in Louisville, Kentucky.
As a professional speaker Gary presents his message with audiences all over the country. He shares the formula he lived. He built the vision, remained positive throughout his travels, went past the obstacles and took the risk, and throughout the journey, he believed in himself, and his goal.
Gary addresses all types of audiences, helping them develop through communication, leadership, teamwork, personal growth, and promoting and confronting positive change. He addresses sales staffs, banquet meetings, association meetings, Chambers of Commerce, civic meetings, and he conducts seminars in communication, leadership, addressing change, and how to build an "I CAN PLAY" attitude. Gary is a member of the National Speakers Association and the Kentucky Speakers Association.
Gary is both a motivational communicator and a storyteller. In his unique style he connects with the audience and demonstrates ways of stepping up to the proactive approach to life. His listeners discover how simple adjustments have helped athletes, managers, sales reps, moms and dads, and everyday people, move beyond the obstacles and achieve goals.
Gary is also a coach. For over twenty years he has taught youngsters to develop and grow in all types of sports. His technique is simple. Set the goal, build an atmosphere which makes it easy to learn, believe, risk, and go past the obstacles. The participants are more mature and the setting is often a banquet hall instead of a playing field but the message and the techniques are the same when Gary coaches from the platform. Learning is easy when it is entertaining and exciting.
