About Vicki Sanderson
Vicki
specializes in keynote addresses, customized workshops and seminars,
in-service training, and after-dinner speaking. Her background
as a business consultant, speech communications teacher, speaker,
humorist, songwriter, author, and owner of her own company brings
wisdom, experience, and knowledge to her presentations and the

Other People."
Vicki has been drawn to the spotlight and the stage ever since
she can remember. She was always writing and directing plays
through elementary school and coercing all her friends to be
in them. At home she would get the neighborhood kids together
to audition for various variety shows under, of course, her
direction! She was chosen in the 5th grade as the lead in her
school Christmas play and thought she had arrived.
Vicki joined the speech and debate team in high school and
received a speech communications scholarship while attending
Stephen F. Austin State University. She obtained a B.A. in Speech
Communications and Radio/TV. She remembers hearing her college
roommate tell her mom, (after being asked what her roommate,
Vicki wanted to do when she grew up) "I think she wants
to be like Carol Brunette!" Vicki has always taken that
as one of the best compliments she has ever received!
She went on to become a speech/debate and drama classroom teacher,
leading her school's speech team to victory year after year.
Vicki was the recipient of the Texas Congress of Parents and
Teachers Honorary Life Membership Award for her outstanding
and distinguished service to children. After 13 years in the
classroom, she started her own speaking and consulting business.
She has now been motivating and inspiring people nationwide
for 20 years.
Vicki's enthusiasm, emphasis on content, and entertaining style
have made her a successful speaker and motivator. Vicki's presentations
have inspired audiences to work better together, take risks,
build stronger relationships and take a closer look at themselves.
Vicki touches the hearts and minds of every audience member
and always leaves them wanting MORE!
