Speaker's Bio Testimonials  

In response to the rash of tragic school shootings, epitomized by the massacre at Columbine, schools throughout the country are implementing anti-bullying programs. These expensive, time-consuming programs require intensified effort and vigilance on the part of teachers, students and parents and, ironically, often lead to an increase in bullying! To make matters worse, the anti-bullying programs unwittingly weaken kids emotionally by teaching them to think and act like victims.

If you work with schools or children, this may be the most important seminar you ever encounter. It will challenge your basic assumptions about children's aggression and even about yourself! The practical tools you will acquire will multiply your value to the schools and children you serve. You will learn how to turn kids from losers into winners in as little as one week. (The same principles also work with adult bullying!)

Why are the popular anti-bullying initiatives so ineffective? Because they violate the Golden Rule, The First Amendment and the teachings of all major religions as well as secular ethical systems. While modern social scientists are trying to figure out how to combat the problems of teasing and bullying, they are rejecting the solutions that have been with us since civilization began. Izzy Kalman has developed simple, powerful techniques that make the wisdom of the ages come alive - techniques that teach victims how to solve their problems without anyone else’s help and without getting anyone in trouble - while restoring their natural sense of humor. Whether your hero is Freud, Skinner, Albert Ellis, the Buddha, Jesus, Moses or Mohammed, you should love this seminar.
