Training and Keynote Speeches

“I have used the services of Larry Robbin many times over the years. Most recently, I asked Larry to do a virtual keynote for a large gathering of counselors, administrators and teachers for our regional education consortium. The feedback from his keynote was excellent! Larry’s knowledge and style combined with his ability to show the heart while speaking from the heart make him an exemplary speaker. He is extraordinarily authentic, gives real examples, and always leaves a group with tools that can be utilized immediately. He has an in-depth knowledge of the challenges faced by people working in many different fields and he can provide new, creative and practical ways to overcome them. If you are looking for a keynote speaker for your program staff and management, I highly recommend Larry Robbin.”

SPEECHES FOR PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS

There are times when your program participants need to hear a powerful message that will inspire them to break out of their comfort zone and make progress in their lives. It often takes someone from outside of your organization that people have not heard before to accomplish this life altering goal. Larry’s speeches for program participants deliver a strong positive message that goes deep into the thinking that is holding people back and opens the doors to a new future filled with positive possibilities. Larry engages program participants at the same time he unleashes their ability to improve their lives. In preparation for his speech, Larry will want to talk with program staff and program participants to hear more about their experiences and their journey. He uses these insights to make his speeches extremely relevant and effective in moving people to a better place. Contact Larry at mailto:larry@larryrobbin.com to explore how his presentations for your program participants can help people write the next positive chapter in their lives.

"I think Larry Robbin is one of the most knowledgeable workforce development trainers in the United Sates. His workshops are among the best that I have ever attended. I look forward to every opportunity to attend his training sessions."

"Larry stands out as unique among consultants. His bi-cultural knowledge of both employers and social service organizations is extremely helpful in bridging the gap between these two very different entities. His trainings are direct, user-friendly and wonderfully illustrative. I've never attended a Larry Robbin workshop that didn't stimulate my services in a new, fresh direction."

Russell Berman
Vocational Services Coordinator
Department of Health

"When I saw Larry first train many years ago, I was completely blown away by his wealth and depth of knowledge regarding workforce development and people with barriers to employment. He has the gift of being able to breakdown and convey best practices that attendees can implement the next day. I brought him to train my staff and my staff thanked me profusely for making the connection. To this day if Larry conducts a training I do my best to attend as I know with utter confidence that he will not disappoint me. I have now been working in workforce development for over 20 years and attest that he is THE workforce development guru!"

Larry Robbin is my go to trainer.  He has the depth and breadth of experience to provide the training our staff and partner staff need when they need it.  His ability to connect with the training attendees brings the material to them in their space so they can engage it in their daily work.  He stays relevant and if I have a training need, he will adapt one of his many trainings to my needs.  Unlike most consultants, he does not fit me into his portfolio.  The best part is he is a pleasure to work with.

CASAS occupies a distinct intersection between adult education and workforce development. This overlap across systems is reflected by the variety of attendees at our annual conference, the CASAS National Summer Institute. Larry has presented many times at Summer Institute to standing-room-only crowds. He has the ability to ensure his presentations always encompass, affect, and inspire all groups represented in his audiences. He presents practical solutions on a broad variety of topics — all supported by sound theories and substantiated by his vast personal experiences. Attendees know they will acquire original ideas from Larry’s unique point of view about how to serve learners more effectively regardless of their circumstances — whether incarcerated, in training, in class, or seeking employment. His expertise and compassion continually serve his audiences well.

Larry Robbin is an outstanding teacher and trainer, whose unparalleled depth and breadth of experience with employers and workforce development have provided him with a wealth of relevant knowledge and compelling stories and case examples that motivate improved performance from all who are fortunateenough to interact with him.  He has trained and consulted for REDF and many of our grantee agencies.  He also exhibits deep respect for people who face all kinds of challenges, and an enduring commitment to their success in the workforce.

Carla Javits

President and CEO, REDF

Larry Robbin is a trail blazer in the Workforce Development field.  His knowledge and experience makes him an exceptional trainer with real life experience to share. As an Executive Director of a Workforce Board, the best way for me to measure the quality of a trainer is by staff engagement and reaction. Not one of my employees, who have participated in a Larry Robbin training, comes out disappointed. Instead, they leave Larry’s training asking, “When is the next session, please sign me up!” Larry presents his material in a way that is easy to follow and apply. Larry is a gem and asset to our workforce system.
