He has written a book called "Failure is not an Option". He speaks of teamwork, discipline and approaching the unexpected with an attitude that excludes failure. In short, his speech was great! I don't know if/where this sort of speaker would be helpful to Enron, but I wanted you to know about him. Volunteer Houston brought him to town, so I'm sure they know how to get a hold of him. I realize he is not a corporate organization expert, but he's one heck of a motivational speaker. Hope this is helpful.
