February, 2012

I hear over and over from school administrators about school assembly performers "with a message" that have come to their schools, yet their "messages" lacked substance.  Be assured that my message is substantial.  I am not just a performer, I am a speaker, and every time I step on stage my goal is to foster life-change.

I am especially pleased about how my message on Bullying has developed, even in the last few months.  Built from 30 years of speaking on the subject, along with comparing notes from psychologists, counselors, administrators, parents, and even bullies along the way, I feel that my message on Bullying is second-to-none in the United States.  It doesn't use gimmicks, play games, or just teach about bullying, it is a straightforward message—after I have gained their respect—aimed at getting them to think about the well-being of others.  Please contact my references and verify this with them, especially the ones below, as they are my most recent appearances from the past few months.  Then, make one more contact, and let's set up a date at your school.

Cary Trivanovich, Performer/Speaker

"Having watched Cary Trivanovich hold 400 K-4 students spellbound with his presentation about treating each other with kindness and compassion, I can honestly say that he distances himself from the pack of anti-bullying 'salesmen' who are everywhere.  My students took his words and actions to heart one minute after he left..."
Michael Michowski, Principal (Retired 2011),
Prairie Hill School, South Beloit, IN

"Your message was spot-on.  It's so hard to find an entertaining speaker whose message has substance.  You brought to our students exactly what we needed for them to hear in a way that they needed to hear it."

Goodrich High, Goodrich, MI

"That was THE best anti bullying assembly I have ever seen.  I have seen at least 20 assembly programs on bullying and that was absolutely the best."

Horace Mann School (K-8), Beverly Hills, CA
