Larry Gelwix - Co-Founder, Forever Strong Leadership Team

With a varsity record of 392 wins and just 9 losses over 34 years as the volunteer coach of the Highland Rugby team, Coach Larry Gelwix has been called an expert on success. This phenomenal success, unequaled in the history of any sport, caught the attention of Hollywood which released FOREVER STRONG, a major motion picture based on the story of Coach Gelwix and the Highland Rugby team. The national media have called Larry the “winningest coach in America.” Larry is often asked what his “secret” is. In this conference keynote session, Larry will share his strategies for achieving sustainable success.
