Motivational Speakers

Thirty years ago Charles Petty's father was inducted into the National Sports Hall of Fame for his ability to shoot a gun. Charles entered the National Speakers Hall of Fame for his ability to shoot off his mouth-which should give hope to every parent whose child fails "conduct" in school, as he did.

His speaking ability has been utilized by over 3100 different clients in 50 states and 14 countries.

He was reared on a farm in Arkansas and does indeed know President Clinton. In fact, when President Clinton was eleven or twelve years old, Dr. Petty was his rifle instructor at a Boy Scout camp. This is the man who taught President Clinton to shoot straight!

Charles learned about the importance of family from the school of hard knocks. His parents divorced when he was six. His mother died when he was nine. He lived in a blended family and when he was sixteen, his father and younger brother were killed in a car accident. He lived by himself for a year and then became a foster child.

Dr. Petty was educated for 22 consecutive years, which means he is well educated or a little slow! H wrote his doctoral dissertation on "Divorce". He has been a counselor, visiting professor, on the staffs of large corporations and for seven years was on the senior staff of the North Carolina Governor. He is President of Family Success Unlimited, located in Raleigh, NC, and since 1985 all he does is "eat and speak."

Dr. Petty is married, has two grown children, four grandchildren and a grand dog that he promises not to mention from the platform.
