Jeff Thredgold: Cuts Through The Economic Fluff:Image-Photo-Picture

JEFF THREDGOLD

Cuts Through The Economic Fluff

Jeff Thredgold is an economist who has been entertaining and informing audiences for over two decades. He has a unique ability to "cut though the fluff" and discuss serious issues and developments in a very understandable way. Jeff has spoken to more than 1,000 groups throughout North America, traveling more than one million miles in the process.

As an economist Jeff Thredgold leads his audience on a slightly irreverent, up-to-the-minute "tour" of the economy, financial markets, education, government, and a sneak preview of the future. He also customizes his remarks for the industry or group that he is addressing. He can present whatever length program is desired, from 30 minutes to four hours, and will always finish according to YOUR schedule, not his. Jeff Thredgold uses humor to keep things light, while also providing a great deal of substance for audience members.

Jeff Thredgold is comfortable in any speaking situation. He moves around the room or raised platform (he likes to be a moving target) using a lapel jeff thredgold audiencemicrophone and no notes. He is always willing to conclude a presentation with "Q&A" with the audience, and…at 6'5"…he is easy to see!

Jeff Thredgold can be very flexible to fit your needs. He is available for keynote, breakout, panel, or workshop sessions. Many clients use Jeff as a keynote speaker and for a breakout session at the same meeting…helping to stretch your program dollars.
