Each one of us has a fire within, a desire to reach a steady level of excellence in all that we do. Charlie Adams kindles the flames of excellence.

Charlie is the author of “Stoke the Fire Within: A Guide to Igniting your Life!” (Corby Publishing, Notre Dame). The book and his presentations are filled with tools from over 4000 interviews Charlie has done with peak performers around the country. The book and his keynotes and workshops are saturated with insights that can help people maintain determined, positive attitudes, and to be saturated with team spirit. Charlie’s rip roaring programs are built specifically to refresh, invigorate and ignite people!

Stoke the Fire Within is built to play a significant role in helping your meeting or event reach its objective. Stoke is a special way to ignite the start, energize the middle, or close "with a fireball of inspiration" conferences, retreats, seminars, development days or meetings. Meeting planners from Fairbanks, Alaska to the University of Notre Dame to the Cayman Islands have trusted Charlie's programs for over 23 years.
