The 2 Minute Takeaway Podcast
About this Podcast.......
The 2 Minute Takeaway Podcast gives you easy to implement tips that will improve your productivity, performance, and profits, Professional Speaker, Author, and former broadcaster, Ken Okel, understands what it’s like to feel overwhelmed at work.
Ken Okel laughed years ago when a potential employer described him as being “too versatile,” to hire. Rather than run from this title, he’s embraced it. For more than a decade, TV audiences watched Ken on the news. At several stations, they saw him perform as a TV news anchor, a reporter, a weatherman, and even a talk show host.
Ken covered natural disasters, school shootings, and grieving families. It wasn’t always sad as he got to meet celebrities, find out what makes unforgettable people tick, and get paid to do things like free fall 70 feet, ride through the streets in a motorized armchair, and be safely attacked by a police dog.
Ken then moved into the nonprofit world for several adventures. These saw him do everything from running a professional ballet company to organizing more than 100 hurricane relief volunteers. Through it all, he understood the value of helping those in need.
