Professional courtesy advocate to offer free professional development seminar at Clive Daniel Home

Randall Kenneth Jones’s positive, humorous spin on personal and professional development can take on a variety of shapes including editorials, public speaking, and spontaneous tete-a-tetes such as his recent impromptu chat with Governor Mitt Romney.

However, Jones’s goal with each endeavor is the lively exploration of professional courtesy as it relates to positive communication and creative thinking all presented under the tutorial umbrella of “The Importance of Importance.”

According to Jones, “My message is quite simple: everyone wants to feel important and respected in the workplace, but, as a society, we’re losing sight of the fact that we only gain respect by providing it first. Plus, I honestly feel courtesy, creativity, and positive interactions are the only way to guarantee ongoing success.”

Jones will bring his unique blend of humor and coaching to the Southwest Florida business community in “The Importance of Importance” on Thursday, June 14 from 2PM to 4PM at Clive Daniel Home, 2777 Tamiami Trail North in Naples. Admission is free.

More “performance” than “presentation,” Jones incorporates personal anecdotes, real-life examples, and improvisation techniques to actively engage his audience including a mock Antiques Roadshow involving attendees.

“The Importance of Importance” features significant presentation material from RediscoverCourtesy.org, the national initiative Jones recently launched to promote a higher awareness of professional courtesy which has recently landed him on MARKETPLACE with Kai Ryssdal on Public Radio and CNBC.com.

Space is limited so please RSVP by calling 239-304-9611.
