Dr. Kevin Elko, a nationally renowned motivational speaker and author, will be a special guest speaker at Malvern Preparatory School on Monday, Sept. 19, at 7:00 p.m. in the Duffy Arts Center. Dr. Elko will be introduced by Robert Manning P'09'11 T, Director of Wealth Management for Morgan Stanley Smith Barney.

Dr. Elko is one of the most requested inspirational speakers in the country today. In addition to corporate clients, he has consulted for NFL teams like the Philadelphia Eagles, Pittsburgh Steelers, Dallas Cowboys, Miami Dolphins, and New Orleans Saints, as well as the University of Miami, University of Alabama, University of Nebraska, and Rutgers University football teams.  Dr. Elko is the author of four books, Nerves of Steel, The Pep Talk, True Greatness: Mastering the Inner game of Business Success and Touchdown: Achieving Your Greatness on the Playing Field of Business and Life. The movie rights to his book The Pep Talk have recently been sold and the book is in the process of becoming a motion picture.

 

“Dr. Elko taught both me and my team how to motivate ourselves for emotional balance so we didn't become too high or too low, but remained focused on the game situation,” says Emmitt Smith, the NFL’s all-time leading rusher.
