Recently while covering the National Tractor Parts Dealer Association (NTPDA) Annual Conference and Trade Show held, this year, in San Diego I was able to take in a presentation by author and speaker Garrison Wynn. He offered those who attended a master class on leadership, influencing people and generational differences in the workplace. Garrison started his stage career as a standup comic but now, for 28 years, he speaks on a number of serious business topics but you can see a bit of that standup sneak through. We talked about that and more in this conversation. Meet Garrison Wynn.
