Kevin Desrosiers, in addition to being a first-time author, is a two-time Distinguished Toastmaster, which is the highest individual award you can earn from Toastmasters International. He has delivered live speeches to organizations in Australia, Canada, South Africa, and in various cities throughout the United States. Due to COVID-19 precautions, Kevin now offers virtual presentations as well as in-person appearances.Kevin worked in a corporate environment for 38 years in two industry-leading companies and saw both taken over by companies outside of the United States. He served as a mentor and coach for people throughout his career and still is working with over a dozen people to help guide them through career, life, and public-speaking challenges. He loves to continually challenge himself and others around him to continually improve themselves. One book that influences him will paint a better picture of who he is: How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie. This book was given to him as a gift when he received a promotion in 1991, and he has read or listened to it every year since then. In his spare time, Kevin is an avid nature photographer, focusing on birds, waterfalls, and other scenes. He also enjoys competitive table tennis, a good game of Texas Hold'em, and playing with his grandchildren.
