Lewis Timberlake’s credentials match his reputation. “America’s Apostle of Optimism,” as once referred by Paul Harvey, is a native of Stamford, Texas who entered the life insurance business at the age of 24. He quickly became a million-dollar-a-year sales person, and within seven years was president of that company. During the first three years of his presidency, his company’s sales increased 1,100% and at the ripe old age of 37 he resigned from this position to devote his time to helping others understand goal setting and modern management philosophies.

Lewis functions as visiting lecturer and management consultant to many of the nation’s largest corporations. He authors and facilitates some of today’s most highly respected management programs for many of today’s prominent companies and serves as professor for the Institute for Management Studies. Perhaps the most impressive testimony of Lewis’ abilities is that his programs are requested by these companies time and time again.

Perhaps a speaker’s reputation should be based upon the leadership he has demonstrated in civic, political, social and religious organizations. Lewis has been active in the following:
