If you are looking for someone new and distinctive for your next event, take a moment to familiarize yourself with one of the Midwest's premiere up-and-coming motivational humorist speakers. George Hametis is the first U.S. born generation of his very Greek family. Growing up Greek meant that George's family owned a restaurant (as is dictated by law in the Greek Constitution.) He learned many lessons about life, diversity, overcoming struggles, showing compassion, establishing a loyal clientele, hiring and training strong employees, the importance of a sense of humor and being successful in spite of the seemingly insurmountable odds stacked against his immigrant family. It is these lessons that helped him become a successful corporate professional.
A happily-married family man who did the unthinkable...married a non-Greek woman, George has brilliantly funny anecdotes about the joys of being married to his beautiful Norwegian wife, Angela. His personal life is a mix of the movie, My Big Fat Greek Wedding and the television show, Everybody Loves Raymond. His professional life has been a mix of challenges and successes that make him very relatable to corporate America as he shares memorable stories (and valuable lessons) from his time in the financial services/insurance industry working from salesman to a supervisor of a Fortune 500 company for the better part of a decade.
George has entertained and spoken for years, however in 2008 he became an award-winning professional speaker. He will leave your audiences with a smile and many great ways to make the most out of life, professionally and/or personally.
