Vicki Sanderson Speaker & Booking Information

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 writing of the book "Life Would Be Easy If It Weren't For 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!
