Harry Vander Krabben has been in the Facilities Management industry for close to thirty years, and has given countless speeches and presentations to clients, management and at company conferences. He realized from the beginning that communicating effectively is essential to personal and business success. Acquiring knowledge is not enough;
continuous and deliberate practice is the key to being heard and understood.
Harry has overcome obstacles in this journey from being a childhood stutterer to becoming a speaking professional. In 2016 he co-authored 101 Speaking Nuggets and is a regular contributor to the blog, 101 Speaking Nuggets. Currently Harry is heavily involved in Video Production. He gained knowledge from books and observations and knew the only way to achieve his goal was through deliberate practice, competent feedback and coaching other speakers. Expertise comes from doing, whether it is a result of joining speaking organizations or presenting in front of large or small groups of
individuals. To be successful in life, Harry feels that being an excellent communicator is essential for success.
