- Success is Overcoming Obstacles on the Way to Dreams
New York Life / MainStay Investments sponsored Karl Mecklenburg to give a motivational presentation at a Wells Fargo meeting for their Colorado financial advisors. Karl did a superb job of tying his football experiences to the challenges that we face day to day in the financial services profession. Having him on the schedule also helped with attendance.
Mecklenburg’s story telling style was a great break from the number filled power point presentations that our meetings generally contain. I have received tremendous feedback from attendees and personally was challenged in a couple of areas by Karl’s presentation. Many of his stories are funny, but each of them back his six keys to success. I am personally going to recommend him as a speaker for one of our national meetings and I highly recommend Karl Mecklenburg to financial service organizations looking for a motivational speaker.

Our firm had the pleasure of hosting a meeting in Denver, CO on May 14, 2013. At our kickoff dinner, we invited Karl Mecklenburg to speak in front of our guests and not only did he easily meet our expectations, he far exceeded them.
Karl spoke for over an hour including a Q&A session and showed an exceptional ability to connect with the audience. While his career on the football field provided the platform for his talk, he shared entertaining anecdotes and difficult lessons learned from other events in his life in order to build a solid connection with our diverse audience. But most of all, his polite, positive, and easy-going manner helped those stories resonate.
At the end of his session, Karl respectfully asked for feedback, both positive and negative, to help him improve his presentation. Ultimately, the entire audience demonstrated high praise for Karl, each of them remaining to shake hands and ask for pictures and autographs.
