About Dick Yarbrough |

Dick
Yarbrough is best known as the author of a syndicated column that regularly
skewers a number of targets, including Ted Turner, permissive parents, the
business community, the International Olympic Committee, the public relations
profession, politicians, the media, and anybody that talks on a cell phone in the
checkout lane. (Click
here to read Yarbrough's most recent column.)
Writing a column is just one of
Yarbrough's talents. The Georgia native is an author of two books
(more info), and he brings his wit, wisdom and
nearly 40 years of professional experience to bear as a public speaker.
His speeches can be tailored to any group or topic - whether you aim to
organize, motivate or inspire your group - and each one is marked by his
humorous take on the world. Just as Yarbrough's column has won him a
loyal readership, his common-sense approach to life, politics,
communications and the American way have made him a sought-after speaker on
today's circuit.
