Murray Banks is one of the nation's most sought-after speakers in the area of lifestyle and its impact on performance. His success as an educator, athlete and long-time professional speaker, coupled with his genuine optimism and enthusiasm make every presentation a starting point for personal and professional growth.
 
From a city school district, to a small, rural Vermont school, to a major university, Murray Banks has taught in every setting . . and learned to eat school lunch in 14 minutes!
 
As a teacher at every level K-12, Murray will share heartwarming stories that inspire educators. As Teacher of the Year in Vermont, he will challenge each person to be innovative and entrepreneurial. And, as a world class athlete, (one of the top finishers in the Ironman Triathlon World Championship), he will motivate every teacher in your audience to become an outstanding influence in the lives of his or her students. To accomplish this with veteran teachers, he will use his "Richter Scale of Stress," challenge them to be "Lava Lamp teachers," ask them to go to the B.A.R., and humor them into using more humor in their teaching!
 
Morale, optimism, a changing educational landscape, and developing a stimulating teaching persona are the key components that Murray addresses with some of the most stunning and hilarious visuals you will ever see in a presentation! He actively interacts with the audience, drawing them into his message and challenging them to bring their teaching to the next level!!
