After blogging every week for TEN years, I finally wrote my first book.

Adam has had the opportunity to write four books….

All of them are with Dave Burgess Consulting (DBC) and they are all available on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

For bulk orders please contact Adam directly for book studies or your event.

 

Kids Deserve It!
Pushing Boundaries and Challenging Conventional Thinking

What if learning was exciting?

What if students felt important and empowered every time they walked into the building?

What if parents looked forward to calls from their children's teachers and principals, instead of cringing when the school's number popped up on their phones?

Adam believes they can (and should) be a reality for every teacher, school, parent, and student.

In Kids Deserve It!, Adam and Todd encourage you to think big and make learning fun and meaningful for students. While you're at it, you just might rediscover why you became an educator in the first place.

Learn why you should be calling parents to praise your students (and employees).

Discover ways to promote family interaction and improve relationships for kids at school and at home.

Be inspired to take risks, shake up the status quo, and be a champion for your students.

Empower Our Girls: Opening the Door for Girls to Achieve More

Girl Power! It’s a popular marketing message that shows up on pink T-shirts across the nation. But sparkly words are not enough to get girls to realize their innate value and reach for their true potential.

The words used to describe girls and define traditional roles can set unintentional limits for girls. It’s time for a change! It’s time for girls to hear the truth:

  • Tears are not a sign of weakness.

  • Being bold enough to ask for what you want doesn’t make you “bossy.”

  • Glass ceilings are meant to be shattered.

It’s time to take a stand for what teachers deserve.

Every day, educators across the country give students their very best. Yet all too often, the passion teachers put into their work—and the “why” that led them to it in the first place—goes unrecognized. Too many teachers feel overwhelmed, stressed out, underpaid, and unheard.

That needs to change.

Teachers deserve respect. Teachers deserve time. Teachers deserve better. 

Whether you’re an educator, an ally, or an advocate, if you’re ready to ignite change in your community, consider this your invitation to be a spark.
