Chris Taylor Presentations
Chris Taylor is one of only a few people in the world to survive a more than ten times lethal dose of arsenic. After receiving chocolates laced with the deadly poison by mail, he was transformed in the wink of an eye from being a successful partner in a law firm to being paralysed from the neck down. The medical opinion was unanimous. CHRIS WOULD NEVER WALK AGAIN!!! Despite the gloomy forecast, Chris refused to budge. With courage, self belief and determination, he fought back and defied the odds. Today he can not only walk again but once again runs his own successful law firm. His presentation is guaranteed to keep his audiences riveted on the edgesof their seats and it includes original video footage of his amazing recovery. Chris's message is simple yet powerful! He believes that one’s full potential is only realised when the chips are down; when one is experiencing difficulties and hardship and one is forced to shift those boundaries and to explore new territory and opportunities. It is then that we need to leave our emotional wheelchairs behind and "Stand Up And Walk" Chris's story is one of immense pain and tragedy, but also one of success and triumph of the human spirit . As he so aptly puts it in the last chapter of his autobiography ~ If I could stand up and walk - so can you! Chris is fully bilingual and addresses his audience in both English and or Afrikaans. |
