When you bring Mark Dawson to speak you get a
speaker unlike most “college speakers”
or high school speaker. Mark is not a career academic or a
student turned speaker like many of the “experts” and “speakers”
students and educators have experienced. He is very real and his
broad base of life, business and athletic experiences add to his
keen ability to relate to people of all ages and all walks of
life. Mark has an ability to capture the attention and respect
from audiences like few other “college speakers” can. He
is a proven leader and “influencer” with an extensive and
diverse background. Whether speaking to groups that are male,
female, coed, or student athletes, Marks powerful, humorous, and clean message
dealing with sometimes delicate issues is guaranteed to leave a lasting
impression. »learn

i do this |
Below are examples of some of Mark's programs. However Mark has
no "canned" presentations. His superb talent for customizing
programs to meet client and organizational needs and preferences
has become his recognized trademark. He will even work with you
to create a one of a kind presentation built around a theme or
message you want to convey or by combining several of his
topics. In most programs he openly and honestly addresses
such issues as Consent, Communication, Body language and
mixed signals, Respect, Personal responsibility, Sex under the
influence, Date rape drugs, The dating race (“game”), Sexual
assault, Teen Dating Violence, How to help survivors, Bystander intervention, and much
more. Through role-playing, humor, and audience
interaction as well as sharing his own powerful stories Mark
takes you on a rollercoaster ride of laughter and serious
messages all leading to answers and tools that can be applied in
ones life immediately.
ALL PROGRAMS ARE CUSTOMIZED AND
ADJUSTED TO BE AGE AND TOPIC APPROPRIATE FOR AUDIENCE
(College, High School, Middle School, Parents or Educators)

Hookin' Up and Gett'n Some is an entertaining, fun and inspiring program that leaves the audience
with a whole new way of looking at and approaching dating, healthy
relationships, sexual assault and consent. This is not your typical
program on sexual assault awareness and prevention or your typical
speaker. Mark does not see sexual assault as a “women’s” issue or a
man against woman issue. His approach is NOT to finger point, blame or tell an audience what
NOT to do as so many programs do, especially to male audiences. Mark’s
approach is positive and refreshing. He will have the audience laughing
one minute then hanging on every word the next as he shares personal
stories about dating someone who was the victim of date rape drugs and
being in a relationship with a rape survivor. Mark will show
people how they can have more fun dating, be more confident and
empowered, ask for consent, have healthier relationships,
prevent sexual assault, offer support for survivors and provide specific
information about how to help themselves, a friend, girlfriend or sister
who has been assaulted..
