About Billy Arcement, MEd:

The Speaker That Gets Results

For over 30 years, Billy has promoted and taught results-oriented leadership for association meetings, government agencies, corporations and school districts. His diversified list of clients, from ExxonMobil Chemical to the National School Boards Association, speaks to the wide-range of leadership expertise he brings to the stage. He has shared his messages with thousands of attendees across America for over 30 years. He understands the rudiments of effective leadership at every level of the organization and would be honored for an opportunity to educate and entertain your group on a leadership or safety related topic. Billy is also the author of two books, Searching for Success, now internationally published and co-authored, Journeying on Holy Ground, considered by readers to be a "Life Manual" for setting priorities in our life. He has also written over 100 articles on the subjects of personal success, leadership, management and school board service.

Billy focuses on topics pertaining to both organizational and personal leadership. He delivers conference keynotes; conference break-out sessions, presents in-house seminars, and can conduct a series of sessions over an extended period. He provides memorable messages, practical information, and just the right amount of laughter to energize, delight, and inspire your audience. He uses his special blend of "Cajun Humor" to drive home the points of his message. Laughter and learning-a proven, winning combination permeates every presentation.

  • Develop an awareness to "stay on course" to achieve desired objectives

 

Billy is a much sought after presenter for school board retreats and school board association conferences. His 12 years of school board service and two year tenure as state President of the Louisiana School Boards Association lend credibility to his message of "Keeping Children First." He also speaks to school district support personnel, teachers, and school administrators.

In recent years, organizations began to request speaking and consulting services on safety and environmental management. Because of the demand, he added these services to his offerings.

Billy has the reputation for providing candid and insightful ideas that result in performance improvements. He uses the wide range of successful personal leadership experiences gained during his corporate career, his many leadership roles in professional organizations, and his lifetime of study on leadership, management, and personal development topics to create cutting-edge messages designed to get results. He is quickly able to get to the heart of an issue and turn his meaningful insights into workable solutions.

Every client gets a "one-of-a-kind" message specifically customized and designed to address their desired outcomes-not a "canned" message that has been delivered to other clients. His detailed preparation strategy includes personal interviews, client web site and printed literature research, pre-program surveys, a study of current trends in that specific industry, and research to identify solutions to issues important to the client needs. Programs over one hour are typically enhanced with PowerPoint slides, exercises, and a detailed handout.

Billy doesn't talk the talk-he walks the talk! As a teacher, he challenged his students to not only grow in knowledge applications but to excel in life. As a coach, he was able to draw the personal motivation and discipline from his athletes necessary for them to be winners. During his 27 years of senior corporate management, he had oversight of the global customer / technical service activities, environmental, health and safety regulatory requirements, and the quality process, including ISO 9000 certification. This broad experience base allowed him to interface with every level of employee within the corporation as well as with managers and leaders within his world-wide client base. And, over the years, he has served in a number of leadership capacities within the professional organizations in which he participated. Whether you're looking for professional development in a small, medium, or large organization, Billy's message will provide an impactful message with the aim to benefit your entire organization.

 All programs carry a 100% guarantee of complete satisfaction. And, if your request doesn't fit his expertise, Billy will gladly recommend one of his many professional speaker peers who might meet your needs. He understands that delivering the goods overrides booking a program. He wants you to have a successful event even if it means giving the business to someone else.

 The contact is free and the results are priceless!
