VINCE PAPALE OTR ConferenceMotivational SpeakerIn 2006 Walt Disney Picturesreleased INVINCIBLE, a motivatingsports story starring Mark Wahlbergas Vince Papale.

Papale, an ordinary guy who, against all odds, takes hisshot at every fan’s fantasy of going from the grandstandsto the gridiron. It has been described that Papale’s odds ofachieving his wildest lifelong dream of playing for theEagles as “one in a gazillion!”

It was 1976 when this 30 year old, a teacher and coachat his HS Alma mater, part-time bartender and die hardEagles fan decided to act on a whim and a dare andentered the unprecedented public tryouts for his belovedEagles. Inspired by this quote from his high school coachmentor, “Happy are those who dream dreams and arewilling to pay the price to make those dreams come true”,he figured he had nothing to lose. Papale, a ten yearseason ticket holder and former track star who did notplay a down of college football, not only paid the price and made the cut . . . he made history!

It was a time when Philadelphia fans were buried in11 years of defeat, when Americans were battling thelingering effects of Watergate, the Vietnam War and a

sweeping energy crisis. Ordinary people appeared badlyin need of a champion from their ranks and Vinceanswered the call.

Instantly electrifying the fans and eventually winningover skeptical teammates with his gritty play, Papalehelped the Eagles rediscover their winning ways. From

being voted Special Teams Captain by histeammates to earning Eagles “man of theYear’ in 1978 for his numerous charitable

activities Papale was an NFL sensation.

It begins, oddly, at suggesting weneed to stop watching, reading and listening to the daily media. We will discuss how we look at our employees, connect with ourcustomers, and challenge us to examine our instinct, luck, counterthinking and “gut feeling” about making decisions.
