Speaking
The talk is the books, said out loud.
Michael Shawn Keller speaks in schools and workplaces about the quiet bully — the joke after the bell, the policy that looks fair, the voice a kid uses on himself.
One page. Topics, a sample day, the fees. No form.
Sixty seconds. That’s all it takes.
What a day looks like
Schools
An assembly plus classrooms or staff. We give the room language they can use the next morning — not a slogan, a next step.
A school day is $750, plus travel if you are not local.
Workplaces
The same work for adults. Jokes that aren’t jokes. Power that hides. Dignity as a practice.
A workplace day is $1,500, plus travel if you are not local.
Signed books can go in the room if the school wants them. Classroom sets.
Who this is for
Principals
You need a day that is not another assembly they forget by lunch.
Counselors
You already know the kid who goes quiet. This gives the room language for the next morning.
HR directors
The joke in the meeting. The policy that looks fair. Same bully, better lighting.
DEI leads
Not a slogan. A practice. Dignity you can point at on Monday.
Student services
You hold the kids the assembly never sees. Bring the talk to them, not past them.
The kit
A short PDF. Speaking topics. A sample day. The fees. How to book. A bio you can hand to a board. No form. It downloads now.
Or read it on the page first.

And the age of the room. I’ll answer.
