| Motivational Speaker Krish Dhanam of the Zig Ziglar Training Organization to Speak At Gillette Stadium |
The event, “An Evening with Krish Dhanam,” which will run from 5 to 8pm, is being sponsored by Gem Plumbing & Heating and the Gem Institute for Performance Excellence. All proceeds from the event will benefit the recently established Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Resource Foundation.
“There are a lot of motivational speakers out there on the circuit, and I’ve heard a number of them, but in my opinion there’s no one quite like Krish Dhanam,” says Anthony Gemma, President of Gem Plumbing & Heating. “We’ve been attempting to get him to come to our area and speak for almost a year and half, so we’re very pleased to have him at last. He’s incredibly inspiring.”
Dhanam, who has addressed audiences in over 40 states to date, will be making his first appearance in Southeastern New England at the March 31st event at Gillette Stadium. His message of hope, dedication and inspiration will be of interest to CEO’s and cancer survivors alike.
Dhanam’s speech will focus on setting and achieving goals and “Dreaming the American Dream with your eyes wide open.” The principles that Dhanam will elucidate are foundational in nature and are designed to allow people to determine for themselves the size of the dreams they want to build on that foundation.
In 1986, possessed by a burning desire to seek the American Dream, Krish Dhanam
arrived in New York City at the age of 24 from India, with nine dollars in his pocket. He went on be a commodities broker and then to work in outside sales positions for long distance telephone companies. He first joined the Ziglar organization as a telemarketer and worked in that capacity for four years before joining the training team.
Today he speaks and trains on behalf of the Ziglar organization, writes curriculum and negotiates international licenses for Ziglar. Working and living in America for the past 19 years has not dulled his enthusiasm for his adopted country: “I believe with all my heart that the American Dream is alive and well, and I am proud to be a salesman for America,” he says.
Tickets for the event cost $75 and include a reception with hors d’ oeuvres from 5 to 6pm. A VIP package for $125 is also available that includes a special meet and greet with Patriot players. Seating is limited and will be honored on a first-come basis. For reservations, call (401) 459-4819.
Formed in 2004, the Gloria Gemma Breast Cancer Foundation is dedicated to assisting women’s health organizations active in the fight against breast cancer as well as to provide comfort and assistance to patients and their families. The Foundation is supported by Gem Plumbing & Heating, which donates a portion of each service call it makes to the Foundation.
