I'm David P. Otey, MA, MBA, a Colorado-based speaker with a reputation for helping technical professionals improve their communication skills. I am also a depression survivor and father of a suicide attempt survivor. I speak with great passion and wry humor on the topic of suicide prevention.
After my daughter's suicide attempt and while she was home from college recovering, we had a conversation about what had happened. Her six-word reply to one of my questions is etched forever into my heart. That is why "Six Words" is the title of my keynote address and this website.
If you have a group, company, or organization needing to be empowered to have the tough conversations about mental health and suicide prevention, I can deliver a moving, engaging talk and follow that up by coaching your people to share their own stories more effectively.
Want to see what "Six Words" is about? You can see the whole program here.
For more information on fees and availability, call or email me. I will reply promptly.
