About This Speaker

Jason Kotecki is a speaker, author, and artist who travels the world encouraging people of all ages to create Adultitis-free lives, with less stress and more fun, by embracing strategies from childhood. A leading expert on life balance and stress management, Jason was named the Rising Star of the National Speakers Association of Wisconsin. Jason is a professional cartoonist and author of the book, “Escape Adulthood: 8 Secrets From Childhood for the Stressed-Out Grown-Up.” Funny, engaging, and inspiring, Jason delivers a message described as a cross between Dr. Phil and Mr. Rogers. He’s an expert at helping individuals and organizations become more productive (and happier) by turning stress into laughter and having more fun each and every day.

He is particularly adept at addressing corporate audiences who are looking for ways to become more productive, improve teamwork and enrich the corporate culture, associations who are wanting to provide an opportunity for their members to rejuvenate the passion for their career and turn stress into laughter, and faith communities that are interested in hosting an event for an intergenerational audience eager for ways to slow down, stress less, and have more fun.

You can also say goodbye to really boring, really bad Powerpoint. Jason takes "multimedia" to a whole new level in his fun, refreshing, and relevant presentations. This tech-savvy presenter incorporates his own viral YouTube videos, original artwork, live cartooning, and cutting-edge photography to illustrate his life-changing concepts. He will happily customize the talk to the special needs of any audience.

You gave great examples of what to do to be more childlike and the importance and impact it can have on your life and others around you.
