Krish Dhanam on Perception, Success and the American Dream

Krish Dhanam is a fabulous speaker!  His journey began in southeast India with the dream of moving to America. He arrived in New York City in 1986 with nine dollars in his pocket and a burning desire to achieve the levels of success he'd seen in the American-made movies he viewed as a child.

An interesting story about him...Krish won a sales contest and a ticket to a seminar conducted by Zig Ziglar. That chance encounter in 1991 led to an association with Zig and his company, Ziglar, Inc., that exists until this day. From telemarketer to Vice President of Training for Ziglar Training Worldwide and Director of International Operations for Ziglar Training Systems, Krish's climb to the top has been phenomenal. He learned first hand what it takes to be a stand apart speaker from his mentor, friend and now colleague, Zig Ziglar. Krish is the author of the book, The American Dream from an Indian Heart.  Krish's professional speaking career has taken him over a million miles, into thirty countries and forty-five states across America. He has shared the speaking platform with Zig Ziglar more often than any other speaker and his dynamic, energetic, engaging and often riveting speaking style allows him to shine when so many others would pale by comparison. He can take a listener from laughter to tears and back again in an instant, and his message of hope, his passion for freedom, and his immigrant's perspective leaves his audiences inspired, grateful and challenged.
