Passion for Leadership has a presentation that fit perfectly with the values of the YMCA. Our students were engaged in a postive way throughout the presentation. It was not the parents or camp leaders giving out rules but a fun communal atmosphere that hopefully made an impression so students will think about their role as a leaders. Thank you Lamarr!
Bo Gebbie, Program Director - Nebraska HOBY
"Lamarr and his Passion for Leadership presentation were right on target. HOBY Nebraska is a leadership program for high school students. We enable students to learn how to think, not what to think. Lamarr tailored his presentation to our objectives, and reinforced HOBY’s mission. Lamarr was extremely uplifting and energetic. He had the crowd on its feet, and not only touched 200 participants, but also their parents and guests. The feedback we received from the students was outstanding, and we cannot wait to have Lamarr back at our next leadership seminar!"
Lischen R. , Big 12 Conference Speaker Chair/Student - University of Missouri

Kynesha P., Student - University of Minnesota - Big 12 Conference Attendee
"My name is Kynesha P. I am a second year student at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Your workshop this weekend was very moving and inspiring. I was at a point in my life where I wanted to go into the math or science field; I was told that is where the money is. Although, deep down my passion is to help the youth. You have given me some what purpose to my life and dreams. Now i feel comfortable, confident and content with the goals that I have set out for myself.
I would like to thank you for that. I would also like to thank you for coming to speak with us. It was all like perfect timing and something that I needed to hear. I also really like what you are doing. I would also like to say what you are doing is great and that you are open and willing to share, which is also great. I would like to keep in touch with you while I am on my journey to fulfill my passion."

Every person at the convention left with a renewed and redefined sense of leadership.
Dan Kozial, Guidance Counselor - Twin River Schools
"When I heard Lamarr speak at the Nebraska Counselors Convention I had to book him at Twin River because of the message that was delivered. This is something all students should hear, to give then a purpose for doing things and finding their passion. Student participation is huge, keeping it up beat and keeping students engaged and focused for 80 minutes is something most people can't do. These are things that happened during the assembly and I have heard nothing but positive comments from the students and staff following the presentation."
Melissa Glenn, Support Services Team Member - TD Ameritrade

Kurk Shrader, FBLA Advisor - Elmwood-Murdock High School
"You were a hit! As the keynote speaker at our Career Fair, you immediately grabbed the attention of 200 junior high and high school students.

Thanks again for a quality program; it is obvious that following your passion to work with students was the right choice!"
Samantha Meister, Teacher Team 8A - King Science and Technology Center Middle School
"I want you to know that all the words in the testimonial are completely true. I know at the time, you didn't feel like you had all of the kids, but in reality, they were eating out of your hand! And after the fact, I had several of my "hard" gentlemen come up to me and comment that they thought you were great, and that you "got" them.
Thanks again for coming! We would LOVE to work with you again in the future......if you don't get too famous and forget us little folks who can't pay ya!"

Alex A., Student - Missouri Valley UP DREAM Mentee
I really enjoyed the presentation. Lamarr did an excellent job keeping everyone involved and interested. I had seen one of his presentations on 'Passion for Leadership' once before, and I really liked how the presentations were NOTHING alike, but had the same great content. I would recommend P4L to anyone wanting an awesome presentation with an upbeat atmosphere.
Suzanne Whisler, Professional Development Coordinator - Educational Services Unit 4
"Our Youth Leadership Day was a great success thanks to Lamarr Womble's ability to relate to students and to effectively communicate his message of "Finding Your Passion".

Attendees, Nebraska Counselors Association
"I am delighted that you came & shared your wonderful workshop at the 2010 DECA Fall Leadership Conference. Your presentation was very enthusiastic and filled with energy! I recognize that you were in front of a high school level audience and you did a great job in keeping our interest as well as focus on your main topics, passion and people.
In your presentation, you stated 10 main things to "win" people over & provided great examples as to how this would look in our personal lives, that shows that this really would apply to our age sectors and it stood out from any other messages that were presented this day. When I look back it was a great way to end my day and left me wanting more and ended with good thoughts.
I congratulate you upon your workshop and wish you every possible success. You've stepped in as a role model for teens and will continue to do so. I enjoyed every bit of information that you presented and look forward to attending another workshop in the near future. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you, thanks!"

"Lamarr spoke at the training I held for UNO New Student Orientation leaders. I was very impressed with the way he prepared for the event, he met with me before and made sure that he tailored the message specifically to orientation and made sure it was the right message for the training. The students were engaged the whole time he spoke and his energy and passion were contagious- He set a great tone for the rest of the training! Throughout the time in our discussion and other activities the students continually referred back to Lamarr's speech and related what we were doing to his message. It assured me that Lamarr was the perfect pick for a speaker! The thing I appreciate most about Lamarr is that he creates a relationship with the students and is not only a speaker but a mentor and that is what truly makes him stand out."

Lamarr's message of living life with a purpose full of passion reached all ages. Lamarr's unique style of delivery was energetic and charismatic. It is easy to see why Lamarr is such a success--he lives the lifestyle that he teaches. He has indeed found his life's passion and we were lucky enough to have him share that with us! Thanks again for such an outstanding day! I have heard wonderful things about both you and Mike all day long.

I’ve been in Toastmasters for several years and Lamarr is well on his way to professional public speaking and I was thoroughly impressed.

"I attended your seminar yesterday on Passion, and I must say that that was the enlightening moment that I needed in my life. It really gave me the courage to run for President of my BSU for next school year. Your session allowed me to think ahead and always be two steps ahead of the game."
Thanks to you, I have the tools to not only do what I NEED to do, but to also do what I WANT to do. I am already planning for the Big Twelve Conference for next year at the University of Texas. Thanks to the wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence that I have gained from your session, I feel obligated to pass it on. So again...YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE!"
Dana R., Student
"I absolutely loved your workshop! I learned so much about myself and others. Since your workshop...even though it was only a couple days ago, every morning if not more than once I read that statement on the back of your card. It really inspires me to go after the dreams, etc that I have wanted to do for so long! I even thought about going to Uganda to help out with invisible children( really cool thing invisiblechildren.com a week before the conference, I do have the drive, motivation, and want to do it;therefore, I will act on that! Ok...I could go on forever about your workshop and I did to my fellow WSC students that also went to BIG XII.
One more thing...I loved that we did the cha cha slide at the beginning. I was interested the entire way through. You are a great presenter and great personality to fit it! Thanks for presenting!
I will definitely keep in touch and probably get back to you for advice on certain things."
Najah H., Student
"I just got back to Oklahoma City from Lawrence, KS where I attended the Big XII Conference on Black Student Government. I attended a Passion For Leadership workshop and it changed my ENTIRE view of what I want to start putting my effort and focus into in my last year (maybe) as an undergraduate.
I cannot thank you enough for what you do! Not only have you mastered the art of facilitating the development of passion, but you are very insightful and a good people reader."

Union Pacific DREAM Mentor Student
"Yes. I had a great time. I liked how I was used as an example, and he kept us entertained."
Karen Meginnis - Sacred Heart School
“… just an outstanding job with the kids. I have no negatives, you captured their attention! I like the three points and how you kept it simple! Message was right on ... maybe a little shorter for these kids ... just very minor improvements to an already award winning talk!”

"I attended your seminar yesterday on Passion, and I must say that that was the enlightening moment that I needed in my life. It really gave me the courage to run for President of my BSU for next school year. Your session allowed me to think ahead and always be two steps ahead of the game."
Thanks to you, I have the tools to not only do what I NEED to do, but to also do what I WANT to do. I am already planning for the Big Twelve Conference for next year at the University of Texas. Thanks to the wisdom, knowledge, and intelligence that I have gained from your session, I feel obligated to pass it on. So again...YOU HAVE CHANGED MY LIFE!"
Dana R., Student
"I absolutely loved your workshop! I learned so much about myself and others. Since your workshop...even though it was only a couple days ago, every morning if not more than once I read that statement on the back of your card. It really inspires me to go after the dreams, etc that I have wanted to do for so long! I even thought about going to Uganda to help out with invisible children( really cool thing invisiblechildren.com a week before the conference, I do have the drive, motivation, and want to do it;therefore, I will act on that! Ok...I could go on forever about your workshop and I did to my fellow WSC students that also went to BIG XII.
One more thing...I loved that we did the cha cha slide at the beginning. I was interested the entire way through. You are a great presenter and great personality to fit it! Thanks for presenting!
I will definitely keep in touch and probably get back to you for advice on certain things."
Najah H., Student
"I just got back to Oklahoma City from Lawrence, KS where I attended the Big XII Conference on Black Student Government. I attended a Passion For Leadership workshop and it changed my ENTIRE view of what I want to start putting my effort and focus into in my last year (maybe) as an undergraduate.
I cannot thank you enough for what you do! Not only have you mastered the art of facilitating the development of passion, but you are very insightful and a good people reader."
Keichanda Dees-Burnett, Interim Director - UMKC Office of Multicultural Student Affairs

"It was great! The students said it was the best speaker they have ever had."
"I thought it was great and related to the students really well. It was very age appropriate and was unique and PASSION filled! The overall presentation was great. It was simple and the speaking points were meaningful and useful. I don't know how anyone could leave the workshop uninspired."
Union Pacific DREAM Mentor Student
"Yes. I had a great time. I liked how I was used as an example, and he kept us entertained."
Karen Meginnis - Sacred Heart School
“… just an outstanding job with the kids. I have no negatives, you captured their attention! I like the three points and how you kept it simple! Message was right on ... maybe a little shorter for these kids ... just very minor improvements to an already award winning talk!”
