Randy
has been speaking professionally on college campuses since 1986.
His warm demeanor, keen sense of humor, and powerful message make
him one of the best and most sought after speakers on the college
market today. In 2001 Randy was named as one the “Best of
the Best” speakers in the 25 year history of the BACCHUS
& GAMMA Peer Education Network. In 2001 and 2002, Randy
was a Campus Speaker of the Year finalist from
the APCA (Association for the Promotion of Campus Activities).
Randy is also an active member of the National Speaker’s
Association and was named as the Showcase Speaker
of the Year by the Georgia chapter of NSA in 2002.
Not all campuses
are the same and not all audiences are the same. As a former therapist
and university administrator on three campuses, Randy understands
the need to deliver different messages to different audiences on
different campuses. He makes time before each presentation to meet
with students and get an idea of the specific needs of each campus
he visits. He then tailors his talk to meet the needs of that campus.
PARTY WITH A PLAN
Drinking
doesn't have to be a problem - there is a better way!
Finally,
an alcohol awareness program that makes sense! Most substance abuse
education programs use scare tactics or a "just say no"
approach. "Party Time!" does not. Randy incorporates his
professional background as a therapist and health educator with
his personal experience as a recovering alcoholic to create a program
that opens the minds, changes the perspectives, and impacts the
lives of students in regard to their use of alcohol and other drugs.
He is well known for his teach, not preach approach to this topic.
Randy uses a research based approach for making informed decisions
on alcohol use. Participants will learn the tools necessary to make
low risk drinking choices and lessen the negative effects of alcohol
in their lives.
SELF-ESTEEM
Tapping
into Your True Potential
This
is the formula for better grades, healthier relationships, less
stress, less self-criticism, and an overall happier life. Randy
understands that 90% of the obstacles we have in our lives come
from within. In his years as a therapist, he discovered a method
of teaching people how to overcome the barriers that get in the
way of success. This program outlines a practical method to discard
self-criticism and begin to accomplish your goals in an easier and
more confident manner.
(This program can be presented as a one hour keynote or half
day training.)
SUICIDE
PREVENTION & DEPRESSION
Out
of the Darkness
On May 16, 1984 Randy Haveson sat on the edge of his bed with a
knife in his hand, debating which wrist to slice open first. Everything
seemed so dark. There seemed to be no way out of the mess that his
life had become. There was only one solution… but something
stopped him. What is it that makes some people go through with this
tragic and painful decision while others are able to make the turn
and reach out for help? This program looks at the issue of suicide
from an experiential and educational viewpoint. Randy is very candid
about his experience and what led up to that life changing day.
After realizing that he had so much to live for, he has dedicated
his life to helping others. Randy was a therapist for a number of
years, helping young people deal with the pressures of adolescence
and young adulthood. Today as an accomplished speaker, Randy will
take you into the darkness of depression and bring you into the
light of hope and present suggestions that could save a life.
LEADERSHIP
Becoming
an MVP
The MVP is the most valuable player on any team. What distinguishes
the MVP from the rest of the team? This program takes a different
look at what makes an MVP and will teach you how to develop the
skills needed to achieve greatness in your life. All successful
companies have a Mission statement. In this program you will learn
how to develop your own personal mission statement. A solid Value
system is also an important ingredient in achieving success, and
this program will explore how to develop and create a value system
you can live by. And finally, in order to find true happiness, you
must find your Passion. Do you know what you are passionate about?
This program will help you uncover and discover your passion.
(This program can be utilized as a one hour presentation or
half day training for student leaders. Any of the three components
can also be developed into a full presentation or keynote.)
Want
to Be R.I.C.H?
There’s a difference between having a lot of money and being
R.I.C.H. Many people are still under the impression that financial
wealth is the key to happiness and success. When the average college
student is asked what they want to do with their life, a common
answer is, “I don’t know, I just want to be rich.”
This leadership program teaches a method that can be used to truly
have everything you want in life, and is geared toward helping individuals
develop their own personal code of ethics. By living a life of Respect,
Integrity, Courage, and Honor, you can truly have it all. |
