Free Range Change:
Why Should Chickens Have All the Choices?

Presented by Association Executive, Humorist,
Author & Speaker Michael J. Mendrick


Are you happy, content or just too tired to worry about it?

Are you passionate about your profession or passive about your life?

Too many people imagine a life of choice and growth yet spend their days trying to find “the path” to success and happiness when “the meadow” offers so much more! Even if they find “the path” their lives are spent reacting to change (that is, following the path as it has been laid down for them by others). Free Range Change promotes the concept of initiating change in one’s life and “wandering a meadow” of choice and opportunity rather than following or creating a narrow and rutted path. Hey, if free range chickens get to do it, why don’t we?! This entertaining and enlightening program will combine anecdotes, observations and interactive exercises to help attendees open their minds to a new way of defining and enjoying success in their lives and careers.
