Art Turock is an
authority in the field of "breakthrough performance." His ideas
have been shared in Success Magazine, U.S.A. Today. Reader's Digest, The

practicality, he hits presented to 100's of major professional

Depth
of Material
Following the "excellence in business" trend of the mid-1980's,
Turock undertook an extensive study of business leaders and peak
performers that continues to this day. Each year since 1987, Turock h is
done hundreds of interviews, and combining these with other research,
designs fresh approaches to address emerging business challenges. His
programs reflect the transformation of "change," from continuous
improvement of best practices to today's vital need for strategic
foresight and reinvention strategies for shaping new futures.
To support his continuous professional development, Turock is a member of
the World Future Society, Innovation Network, and National Speakers
Association. Currently with selected clients, Art is in the process of
launching the Business Visionaries Roundtable to support the expansion of
strategic and innovative capabilities for executives desiring to prepare
more intentionally for the future.
Early
Experience
At age 26, with a Masters in Counselor Education from the University
of Florida, Art was named Director of the University of Iowa's
Interpersonal Skills Training Project. Here he gained leadership
experience as he recruited, trained, and mentored trainers throughout
Iowa. Revolutionary at the time, his training of trainers approach was
designed to motivate participants to test their limits. The program became
a prototype for statewide interpersonal skills training for many years.
Motivated by his
father's triple bypass surgery in 1983, Art wrote Getting Physical: How to
Stick With Your Exercise Program, a book for the thousands who know what
they need to do to be physically fit, but lack the motivational tools for
consistently making healthy choices. Applying these motivational ideas to
business, Art created his `Sustaining Exceptional Performance' series of
training programs and keynote lectures.
Perspective,
Knowledge
As someone who has periodically reinvented himself; from graduate
student to training project director, from regional corporate wellness
consultant to international speaker, and today as an advisor to business
visionaries, Art Turock speaks from personal experience, tested knowledge,
and wide perspective.
