Greg Blake is a senior associate with Furman University’s Center for Corporate and Professional Development. He is also the “chief encouragement" officer and founder of PEP Works International. A former leadership development specialist with Denny's, Greenville Hospital System and BMW, Blake's mission is to encourage people in corporate America. He has conducted national keynotes and training sessions with Ford, BASF, Lockheed Martin, Motorola, Duke University Medical Center, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and numerous healthcare organizations.
Described as a 6'7" live wire by his peers and business colleagues, Blake engages his audiences and classes with an enthusiasm and presence that is contagious. He pursued his passion to encourage corporate America after meeting leaders and followers in organizations who had become disillusioned, disheartened, discouraged and disconnected because of the changes they were facing both personally and professionally. Blake believes in an approach to training that is practical, applicable and memorable. He provides tips, tools and techniques that can be implemented immediately back at the work site.
