Autorenporträt
Blaine Rada's travels and adventures started early. Between kindergarten and high school, he lived in eight places, attended eight different schools, and spent three years at a "free school," which encouraged independent learning, where Blaine focused on art, math, and playing in the mud.Smart enough to be a member of Mensa, Blaine still will do things that don't make any sense, like the time he chained his bike to a concrete post, not realizing it could simply be lifted off because the post was only four feet tall.Blaine was named "America's Greatest Thinker" in 2005 by winning The Great American Think-Off, a national philosophy competition. He won the event arguing that cooperation benefits society more than competition. Kind of ironic. [More information on this event can be found at www.thinkoff.org.]As a teenager, Blaine discovered his life mission was to have a positive impact on as many people as possible. Even then, he knew it would involve professional speaking. As a member of the National Speakers Association, Blaine has achieved the highest earned designation, the CSP, or Certified Speaking Professional.Blaine has spent over 30 years in the financial services industry and travels the country helping companies grow their business and stand out from the competition.Blaine would love to hear from you!
