Dr. Joe Martin, a.k.a. “The Educator Motivator,” knows first hand that the calling to be an educator carries with it the responsibility to help students learn, lead, and achieve.
Dr. Joe’s message is always powerful, provocative, and practical. His unique insight into what makes good teachers great and what helps "motivationally-challenged" students become overachievers has made him a sought-after education speaker for more than 26 years.
In addition, Dr. Joe has spoken for more than 750 organizations, colleges & universities, and K-12 school districts. Some of his clients include NASSP, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the United States Navy, and the National Education Association (NEA). He also serves as a guest columnist for three national magazine publications.
He is consistently the highest-rated keynote speaker at education conferences and in-service training. Audiences love him because his content is indisputably wise and his style of speaking is in your face, but on your side.
