Speaking
BOB WELCH keynotes conferences and other special events from coast to coast with messages of heart, humor and hope. In short, he reminds audience members that they matter far more than they know — to the world in general and to their workplaces in particular.
He has spoken at the Massachusetts Statehouse, been featured on ABC’s “Good Morning America” and delivered commencement addresses for the University of Oregon Department of History and other schools. But his words resonate most deeply with frontline workers — nurses, police officers, firefighters, 911 dispatchers, military personnel, teachers, volunteers and others who contribute so much to our society but often from the shadows.
Among his clients: Boston Medical Center, Massachusetts General Hospital, Purdue University School of Nursing, Oklahoma State Council of Perioperative Nurses, National Hadassah Conference, National Association of Personal Historians, Western Museums Association and Boston University Nursing Archives.

What people seem to be starved for these days, says Welch, is a sense that they actually matter, particularly in the workplace. And his talks focus on that very idea — that, yes, we do. More than we often know.
