Dale Irvin Biography

Dale Irvin is the world’s only professional summarizer. He attends your meeting, paying attention to every word spoken by every speaker and noticing every detail of the event. Then, throughout the day, he will “summarize" the event with a comedy monologue written on the spot.

One of his clients best described his performance when she said, “What Billy Crystal brings to the Academy Awards, you brought to our meeting.”

He is also an author, actor and widely televised comedian. But speaking is what Dale does first, foremost, and incredibly well.

In addition to 100 national TV appearances, Dale has appeared in concert with Jay Leno, Paul Anka, The Four Tops, and The Temptations.

Dale has received professional speaking's two highest awards as presented by the National Speakers Association. In 1988 Dale earned the designation of CSP, Certified Speaking Professional; and in 1995 was given the highest recognition of CPAE, Council of Peers Award for Excellence. Dale is one of only 67 speakers in the world to hold both of these titles.

The Corporate Challenge

Dale has developed his own game show which is used to reinforce information your audience has learned during the course of the meeting. It is full of laughs and is a very fun way to learn. Dale Irvin is a smart savvy guy with a button-down style and a way of finding humor in just about everything. He laughs at life... and life, in return, laughs with him.

Power Thinking

This three hour creative thinking seminar delivers solid creative thinking techniques in a fun and memorable way. It is a very unique break-out session.

Custom Put-On

Dale is introduced to your audience as anyone from the new vice president of sales to the junior senator from Montana. Together you decide on a character and Dale will create a program that will confuse and baffle the audience until they catch on and enjoy the fun. Dale has even performed this program in the character of a woman... and a darn good looking one at that.

Five Minute Funnies
