There are a broad range of events that encompass “Speaking” engagements. These may range anywhere from smaller more intimate venues in comfy lounge chairs  over a coffee-talk type setting, several on-going discussions with smaller groups, a hired speaker for a charity event, an on-stage presentation for a large group,  or something in-between.

There is no one-size fits all approach when it comes to booking Aric, his philosophy is and always has been “ if there is a need, I will do my best show up and speak”.
