The Stella Hotel will be hosting a book signing and author conversation with Chris Westfall, Forbes contributor and the author of Easier on Feb. 23. Recognized as the US National Elevator Pitch Champion, Westfall is the publisher of seven books. His clients have appeared on Shark Tank, Dragons' Den in Canada, and Shark Tank Australia. A regular contributor to Forbes, he has appeared on NBC, ABC NEWS, and CNN. Recognized as a Top 10 Business Coach, Westfall regularly works with Fortune 500 Companies and high-impact leaders, as well as top-tier universities, to deliver insights into powerful leadership communication strategies. Westfall coached the team of Texas A&M scientists that won the Rice Business Plan Competition, and he's helped raise over $100 million in capital (and counting) for innovative business ideas.
“Chris’s master story-telling, imagery, and character development read like a great novel,” saiys Mark Bowles, entrepreneur and award-winning TV producer. “From the first paragraph the story kept me emotionally engaged, reflecting on my own experience and ego, and somehow made me more free to absorb the underlying wisdom and lessons with little effort. A truly great read.”
Easier is a business fable, written in the spirit of great business books like The Go-Giver, Five Dysfunctions of a Team, or The Goal. The story is a conversation between a client and a coach. The client is frustrated, not sure where to turn to create greater impact in his career. He hires a coach to find the courage to do what he can't, when it comes to his career - and his life. Little does he know, an ambush is waiting for him in just five days. From an unexpected circumstance that's far from easy, a story of resilience, resourcefulness, and possibility emerges.
Tickets are $25 and space is limited. Guests will enjoy hors d'ouevres, a cash bar, and receive a signed copy of the book.
