Sometimes I Work at Sea

I'm glad to say that all of my presentations are not landlocked. In the past three years, I have had the opportunity to speak aboard wonderful cruise ships--the Radisson Diamond, The Regatta with Oceana Cruises and most recently the Horizon, which at that time was with Celebrity Cruises, but has moved to new ownership.

This view shows the top deck of the Horizon. I used that track regularly to walk off the many calories I consumed when I wasn't giving my three lectures:

"Orson Welles'1938 War of the Worlds Broadcast"
"Edward R. Murrow: Father of Radio/TV News"
"Kennedy/Nixon 1960 TV Presidential Debates"

My next cruise outing will take me through the Caribbean in February, and will bring warm relief from the north Georgia winter.

About Me

Name: Bill Lampton, Ph.D.

Location: Gainesville, Georgia, United States

My fascination with communication began when I took a Public Speaking course at Millsaps College. When I learned that I could change someone’s opinion and behavior with a twenty minute speech, that astounded me. I decided, “Here’s something worth devoting my life to.” My next step: Earning the M.A. and Ph.D. at Ohio University. Then I taught Speech Communication for five years at the University of Georgia. To put my communication training into practice, I became an administrator for more than two decades, as vice president of three colleges and a medical center. All that time, I “moonlighted,” writing articles for newspapers and magazines, serving as a weekend radio DJ, narrating TV specials, acting—anything connected with communication. So I have learned as much outside the classroom as I learned inside. In 1996, I formed my company, Championship Communication. I wrote my book, The Complete Communicator: Change Your Communication, Change Your Life! Now my communication career is in full swing as a speaker, business consultant, seminar leader and coach.
