DESCRIPTION:
From 8 under a tent to 78,000 in a coliseum, audiences in 19 countries have heard his unbelievable but true stories. His true life adventures range from International Bareback Rodeo’s to skinning skunks in a space suit. From sleeping in dumpsters in England to discovered a lost medieval tomb in Scotland. He has lassoed wild beavers, broke a World Record and has lived to tell another day with a C1-C2 neck fracture.
“Everyone has a story to tell. Nestled within each triumphant or disastrous event, lies a Story That Tells a fundamental principle. Learning these principles are the foundation of a healthy, balanced and successful life. It is our responsibility to use our unique, God given talents, to find our place and tell our story.” Thomas Dismukes
Thomas's motivational message is carefully woven into his presentations. Your guests will laugh, have fun, be amazed and learn all at the same time. Don't hire a speaker that will bore them to death, hire Thomas Dismukes to keep them entertained while educating and motivating them. People seem to learn better while having a fun time. Thomas's presentations are almost a "sneak up" approach to education. The audience is learning as they are laughing, participating and having a GREAT time. They almost don't realize they are learning because they are having so much fun in the process.
"Meeting planners across the country consider Thomas to be one of our nation's best motivational and humorous storytellers." *** What people are saying about Thomas Dismukes. *** Having Thomas Dismukes speak at our conference was one of the best deciisions our association has made. We were looking for a motivational and inspirational speaker to close out our conference and we hit the jack pot with Thomas! Shannon Templet; LA Personnel Council, Inc *** If you’re not laughing, you’re crying--all while learning basic principles of life, love and leadership. James Greer: DOM, Amarillo TX. *** Thomas’ motivational, inspirational speech was just the ticket to get our school year off to a great beginning. Our teachers thoroughly enjoyed his homespun humor, his expert balancing skill and his heart-felt stories about which everyone could relate. I would recommend Thomas without reservation to be a speaker for any/all groups. We greatly enjoyed his time with us. It was terrific!
Dr. Darrell G. Floyd, Superintendent of Schools Stephenville, TX *** He kept the audience spell bound! Katie Woodruff: Chick-fil-A *** When you need to laugh, learn and be encouraged to get the most out of life, there is no better speaker than Thomas Dismukes. Winona: Chamber of Commerce *** Thomas,
I want to thank you for coming and speaking at Spartanburg Methodist College for our freshman orientation program. Your words of wisdom had a definite impact on our students. You truly have a gift for inspiring people to step outside of their comfort zone and embrace their dreams and opportunities. I look forward to having you back on campus soon.
Kim Day *** Thomas has a unique ability to discern a meaning behind the madness, in a principle that everyone can relate to and apply to their life. James Chambers: President & CEO- Town and Country Bank *** Thomas,
“What a blessing to have you. We are so grateful for people like you who so generously give of their talents & abilities to influence others in such a positive way! Thank you for inspiring and challenging our staff.” Trudy Cathy White, WinShape Camps, Chick-fil-A *** Thomas was a true hit! Bringing a very refreshing combination of true-life experiences and stories coupled with his message of inner strength, a positive attitude and a firm foundation in moral values and ethics, he was extremely entertaining and motivating.
In a most engaging, enthusiastic manner, he drew the audience into his stories, eliciting laughter and amazement from all who attended. He was inspirational and encouraging, with a joyful spirit that left everyone feeling better about themselves and our community.
LA, Chamber of Commerce * Thomas,
I heard nothing but wonderful comments about your presentation. Everyone has said that you made the evening even more of a success! The one thing that impressed me was your willingness to share your real-life experiences, in such a dynamic way that you not only entertained us, but you also taught us valuable lessons. I think that even as adults, we need to be reminded of what true success really entails and how important it is for us to have that encouragement and hope in our lives, and you were able to do that. The lessons you taught were right in line with what Relay for Life really stands for, giving hope and encouragement to others, even when there are many roadblocks and hurdles to overcome. I truly enjoyed meeting you and felt like I had known you for a long time.
We would love to see you again!
