Roger Revak, Humorist, Former Banker, and LSBE Alum Featured at Weber Hall
Understanding the need for and the power of a personal mission statement will be the topic of Humorous Motivational Speaker, Roger Revak's presentation at LSBE's spring Distinguished Speaker Series event.
Revak, a 1990 LSBE Accounting and Finance Graduate and former banker, will take the stage at UMD's Weber Hall on Tuesday, April 16 at 11:00 a.m. The event is free and open to the public.
Revak's journey of coming to terms with a brain tumor and the resulting extensive operation provide the heart to his life-changing perspective. He takes his unique talent for engaging audiences through comedy, while telling personal serious stories.
"We are fortunate to have Roger Revak share his inspirational stories with us," said Kjell R. Knudsen, Dean of LSBE. "Teaching audiences through humor is a gift. We look forward to having Mr. Revak share his talent and his vision of personal mission statements."
"National Bank of Commerce is proud to support a remarkable man with an inspirational message," said Bruce Webb, President of Minnesota Banks for National Bank of Commerce. "The impact of listening to Mr. Revak's story is powerful, and he gives the audience some great ideas on how to work on personal action plans. As the area's largest locally owned community bank, we support both personal and professional growth with the citizens in our communities."
